If bread was good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for me.
I prefer the Twinkie style bread.
The skull of this 25 year old Paleolithic Adonis that I’m holding never drank milk, this skull never had a slice of bread in its life
What was the average age of death for the caveman and was he/she disease free?
I didn’t see that statistic referenced.
Might I add, "This skull has a life expectancy of 35."
I appreciate the idea behind the diet (less refined foods in general seems to be a great start), but life expectancy started to expand and life became "better" once agriculture developed. That means more whole grains and some dairy products.
And unless Dr. Cordain knows something that the rest of us missed out on, Paleolithic man was a "mammal", which means he recieved his food from the mammary gland of his mother during his very early life. So that skull indeed did drink milk.
In other words, the Atkins diet.
So easy, even a caveman can do it!
So, in a nutshell, working out hard and eating less calories (esp in the form of processed foods) works. No matter what the plan is called...
And take a multi vitamin. No one’s diet contains all the good things the body needs.
“While following the paleo diet tests Lewey’s patients, understanding it is a breeze. Eat all of the vegetables and fruits you want. In addition, eat lean meats, nuts and seeds. That’s it.”
Comments:
- “I started eating Paleo about a month ago and in that short period of time, the physical and mental health issues I was having ceased. My athletic performance and recovery time have improved significantly, my acne cleared up, and my roller-coaster water retention is gone. I lost about 5 lbs in the first 2 weeks and am on track to lose 20 more. The change I value most since starting Paleo however, is my improved mood. I struggled with depression and mood swings before changing my diet and all symptoms have...VANISHED! I finally feel like I own my body. I am wonderfully energetic, happy, and I feel equipped to deal with stress. Beyond my health improvements, Paleo was a very easy switch for me. After 3 days of initial withdrawal (from both coffee and complex carbs) I haven’t desired to break the diet since...”
- “Have been Paleo for 10 weeks - Guess what - no migraines (were weekly before), no stomach issues (IBS for years), depression improved, asthma improved, CrossFit performance made leaps and bounds. Oh, and for those in the “I don’t like what I see in the mirror” group - 15 pounds, 4 pants sizes, almost 10” off the waist. (After a heavy exercise, ‘normal’ diet, and a 1-2 lb weight loss / month). Yes, it’s hard to maintain (preparation is key). No, it won’t be popular. Yes, you will have to defend against your friends. But you can’t argue with the results!”
- “I learned about about the Paleo diet from Dr. Cordain about 11 yrs ago at a nutrition conference. I am a physician and the rejections here are cliches of ignorance. Do not, I repeat, do not steal this gift from yourself. I am
considered a genius physician where I live Ha! I am not.I simply advise and educate my patients about The Diet. It cures most diseases simply because we get these stupid diseases because we are not eating the diet we are
designed to eat. Even the vast majority of genetic diseases are the result of those genes less able to handle our nonhuman diet. What you have been taught about diet is from the medical industry to support their industry.
If Dr Cordain had not supported his diet so strongly with research it would probably be illegal.” Lane Sebring MD
Milk is the first food of all mammals
It was dairy animals man first cultivate for food sources ....with dairy they just need to go with the same unprocessed idea as they do with meat fruit veggies and grain
Sounds an awful lot like Atkins.
Thank you for posting this, SoDS.
Great workout regimen, not for the faint of heart. Here's a link to the workouts we do:

I'm up to doing "as Rx" workouts most of the time, but am still usually the last one in my class to finish. Buncha young whippersnappers!
Any other crossfitting freepers out there?
