The Palaeolithic Diet

[poliphilo]

Ailz talked to her doctor about her low-carb diet. He was all in favour. He thinks we should eat the way our hunter-gatherer ancestors did- lots of green stuff, nuts and fruit in season, meat when and if- because that's the sort of diet our bodies are designed for.

There's a lot of good sense in the Paleo diet and others based on similar principles. I've been using the Primal diet as my basic template for a couple years now and it has definitely improved my health. I do make a few exceptions, though. Some people get very ferociously fundamentalist about these diets, and I'm not convinced that's healthy mentally.

There are lots of good Paleo and Primal blogs around, with good recipes to try.

I think it's foolish to get fundamentalist about anything.

Thanks for the hint. I'll have a look at some of those blogs.
