Publisher's summary

It’s easy to raise an eyebrow when you hear the term paleo diet. Many people assume it’s just another diet with a poorly thought-out weight-loss scheme, but it’s not some gimmick or fad that will fade away. It’s just a return to the diet that nature intended for us to have. It traces back to the days of our ancestors where we were hunter and gatherers during the Paleolithic Era. The paleo diets consists of dietary stables such as seeds, nuts, berries, and fresh meat.

The paleo diet, much like the Atkins diet, will cut out most of your carbs. However, unlike the Atkins diet which will focus on how many carbs you cut from your day to day meals, the paleo diet will focus more on your overall health. The Atkins diet encourages people to gorge on meats, even if they have antibiotics or hormones used. The paleo diet requires that you eat healthy meats that are hormone-free and grass-fed. There are studies that suggest it is not a coincidence that Atkin dieters suffer from heart attacks. This diet even allows you to gorge on fatty meats such as bacon, which is soaked in grease and sure to leave you with clogged arteries, despite how thin someone may be.

In short, the Atkins diet can increase your cholesterol and contribute to heart disease. However, the paleo diet does not have the same pit falls, since it concentrates on more than just the reduction of carbs. It also concentrates on the actual nutrients that you’re putting into your body. It doesn’t matter how many low-carb and low-fat foods you eat if the nutrient value isn’t what you need for your body. You’ll still be unhealthy. Like every organism on the planet, our bodies and their needs have been defined and developed over time, and it is important that we address those needs properly.
