Considering humans have penetrated every corner of the globe by perhaps 50,000 years ago what would a paleo diet consist of. The clovis people I am sure ate different things than homo sapiens in Europe or Oceania.

Did the diet also shrink his brain?

Following a fad diet does not increase my confidence in one's judgment.

Jebster won’t get elected even if he gets down to my weight, which he never will.
His weight is not the issue, it’s him being a Democrat in an R jersey and a cheap labor importer.

Jeb, take your wife back home to Mexico and run for President there.

Dude, the “paleos” ate absolutely anything they could get their hands on. That’s what you do when you are living a subsistence lifestyle, otherwise you risk starving to death.

Thankfully, we don’t have to live that way anymore, and have the luxury of being picky, even to the point of chasing fad diets of dubious merit.

They ate meat and fish, just maybe slightly different ones. They ate fruits and vegetables, but again, just slightly different ones.

The point isn’t to eat a particular meat or fruit or vegetable, it’s to avoid foods that were not available until more recently in history after the advent of farming.

They also undoubtedly scavenged. I doubt Jebster is feasting on roadkill....

Paleo really works.
Friends of mine who compete in Spartan Race have convinced me it is healthy and effective.
Cut out bread and dairy, that’s about it.

It doesn’t help inflated ego or overall stupidity.

I eat paleo for the most part. It works.

The best way to describe is: no bread, no pasta, no rice, no potatoes, no desserts, no starchy foods...just high protein and veggies (mostly leafy plus broccoli, cauliflower and the like).

The weight flies off and blood pressure comes down.

I break it a couple of times a month just so life is still worth living.

The Maori, Fijians, Samoans, I read some book. One of those would and still eat raw foods and is probably why they are in fairly good shape. It varies from people to people.

Karl Rove: Yeah, I think you could lose some weight. That certainly would make the people better understand when you tell them about Common Core and Amnesty. Trust me.

Paleo works. I actually lost 60 pounds in 4 months with it. Basically, you eliminate carbohydrates from your diet. Meats, fruits, veggies, and water are fine, but no bread, sugar, pasta, processed food, or soda. It tough and you lose energy, but brutally effective for dropping fat.

To: All

Two years ago, I suffered a foot injury, which aggravated my bad bunion and hammer toes on my left foot.

Four months later, I finally had surgery, which took about 18 months to reach 90+% recovery.

I wasn’t able to really exercise walk nor exercise before and after the surgery until about 18 months post surgery.

During that time, I gained 45+ pounds, and my mild hypertension went to a serious level. My daily Vasotec went from 5mg/day to twice that dose.

I went on my modified Paleo diet July 5 th, last year.

Carbs were basically eliminated and any/all processed foods. Diet oleo and other so called diet products were thrown away. All of the sugars are avoided as well as the so called diet sugars.

My wife planted Kale in her garden, and I became addicted to Kale and fresh fruit/veggies. I eat eggs several times a week and real pork/beef/lamb and game like elk/deer/feral pigs and wild turkey and waterfowl. Also, ocean salmon, mahi mahi, cod and tuna are alternated with the other real proteins. We try to get grass fed beef, pork and lamb.

My snacks are walnuts, grapes and tangerines, left out on a counter by my wife. If I get a little hungry I grab some and eat it.

I eat a breakfast with smoked salmon, plus an egg 3-4 times a week and fruit, a grazing lunch with real protein, leftovers from the night before, kale, fruit and nuts. A regular dinner based on the foods cited above.

I eat one small dark chocolate bar for desert each night.

I have two good size coffees each morning and drink a lot of sun tea and Brita water.

I have a glass of red wine each night with my dinner and a smaller one after dinner sometimes.

The toughest part was giving up my two micro brews at night and the wonderful baked breads in this area.

7 weeks later after starting my food program, I had lost 30 pounds and my cardiologist said I didn’t need another Echo gram or to see him for at least a year. My fp had picked a heart murmur just before my surgery and had referred me to the cardio doc. My FP and Cardio doc couldn’t believe the changes in one year in spite of a slow surgery recovery.

My weight loss has continued to 45#’s, and I am back to power walking at least a mile plus once a day to twice a day. A good part of that walk is up and down a good sized hill. I’m walking a mile up and down a hill in 13-15 minutes.

My BP is as good as it was when I was in my 20-40’s, 110-120 over 70-80, and even lower after a walk. I am off my BP meds.

I don’t count the calories nor dream about food. I really haven’t been starving hungry after the first two weeks of this program.

Recently, the results of the MIND diet have been published in medical journals and the WSJ this week.

Basically, the MIND is my eating program. The people who followed this diet had less dementia and Alzheimer’s.

I saw a video clip of Jeb in New Hampshire last weekend. He looked about 20 lbs. thinner. I figured he was on some sort of diet.

This is a great diet.

High protein, berries and vegetables. Very little or no refined carbs.

Seriously, cut the white carbs and eat some meat every meal.
