More on the Paleolithic Diet

Steve Seater, CN, CPT: Posted on Thursday, January 19, 2012 1:23 PM

My last two blogs talked about the whys and hows of the hunter/gatherer diet.

In this blog I want to clear up some misunderstandings. The Paleolithic Diet always is concerned with foods we humans have adapted to through prolonged esposure. There are three distinct metabolic types this diet covers: the Protein/fat type, carbohydrate type, and the mixed or omnivorous type. This diet regardless of your type is centered upon eating foods our ancestors ate and avoiding those foods that recently entered the human diet such as grains, legumes, potatoes, sugar, white flour, artificial sweeteners, transfats, and all prepared foods (modified foods like TV dinners, packaged snacks,etc.

In my last blog I talked about the hunter/gatherer diet, sometimes referred to as the Primal Diet or the Paleolithic Diet because it originated during the Paleolithic period of geological time which ended about 10,000 BC when the great ice sheets melted. In general the paleolithic diet consists of the natural foods found in the geographic areas in which our ancestors lived and evolved. Because the foods found in these areas vary considerably, different diets evolved in various parts of the world.

How should we eat

Write your post here.

Biochemical Individuality determines your metabolic type which tells you how and what you should eat. The idea goes back to the ancient India and China, two civilizations thet recognized different constitutional types requiring different foods. Today, modern dieticians and mainstream physicians believe that there is one diet right for eveyone, but nothing could be more misguided. The USDA'S new Food Pyramid assumes that one size fits all. The food pyramid is fine for many folks but inadequate for many more.
