We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Paleo Primer: A Jump-Start Guide to Losing Body Fat and Living Primally" wrote himself).

How amazing would it be if eating great tasting food helped you to lose fat, boost your energy levels and made you look awesome?! Thanks to Paleo Primer, this is now possible and-more to the point-sustainable. Paleo Primer is a great resource to help readers get quickly acquainted with the principles of Primal/paleo/evolutionary health living and eating. The first half of the book lays out the basics, with humorous and memorable cartoons to convey the key messages and lay the foundation for an effective daily routine. Youll learn how to get your mind right for lifestyle transformation, understand which foods to eliminate and why, follow step-by-step plan to get started, and even enjoy a list of lifesaving books and websites. The recipes section contains over one hundred delicious, easy to prepare dishes that are organized into enticing categories like, How to Pimp a Salad and Cheats of Champions. Paleo Primer also offers preparations suitable for busy weekdays, and others for relaxing weekends. Paleo Primer was written by Keris Marsden and Matt Whitmore, a British couple who operate a unique and extremely popular fitness and wellness facility called Fitter London. Their vast knowledge base, deft teamwork, and highly refined sense of humor shine through in these pages. It is a truly entertaining and deeply impactful read-a great gift idea to introduce a family member, friend, or loved one to Primal/paleo living.
1. There are tons of Paleo/health related books currently on the market. What was it about the subject you chose to write about in your book that made you feel so passionate about spreading the word and getting your book published?
Our mission was simple, to get as many people as possible cooking their own food and more importantly enjoying it. We knew our book was no revolution in the world of Paleo eating but something we felt was missing was a simple, light-hearted approach to nutrition and health based on great tasting food. Paleo Primer was initially intended as a recipe booklet for our clients and Fitter London members. We wanted to provide some inspiration in the kitchen and some solutions to common health and nutrition issues we observed day to day. One page led to another and soon we realised we had created over 100 recipes and written 100 pages of nutrition advice. At that point we decided to bite the bullet and publish the information in a book.
2. What is it in particular about your book that makes it such an essential must-have to anyone who is interested in eating Primally and/or improving their health?
The simplicity in our approach makes this book so essential, both in terms of the presentation of the information and the actual recipes (minimal ingredients and culinary skills needed). In our experience people seemed to be a little overwhelmed with all the conflicting advice regarding nutrition and also struggling to process some of the more advanced arguments provided, especially when regarding the science. Furthermore, those that could understand the case for Primal or Paleo nutrition were still struggling on a practical level and how to implement the principles encouraged. We believe in KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) to help people take on board the important messages and some simple steps and recipes that allow them to start putting things into practise immediately. Knowledge is power and if you understand the necessity for something you invest more time and energy in achieving it.
3. What is your favorite part of your book and why?
The awesome recipes :-) We are passionate about good food and love cooking, so creating new recipes was the exciting part. We have taken what are traditionally unhealthy meals and made them incredibly nutritious without sacrificing on the taste. There was also a lot of trial and error involved and when we finally nailed a dish and managed a great photo it was a real high five moment!
4. What is the main problem that the subject of your book tackles (for example: my book is concerned with poor eating habits, cultural eating habits, personal exercise regimes, etc.)?
The fact that today people lead hectic, busy lifestyles and everyone is time poor. The result of this is that everyone is always looking for convenience and short cuts, health in particular seems to be taking a back seat and suffering as a result. People now rely on fake processed foods and also weve lost many traditional means of preparing and consuming foods, which have also impacted significantly upon our digestive wellbeing. Having worked with clients for years we observed all the barriers they experienced when trying to get healthy and address these in Paleo Primer. We were adamant our book would be fool proof in this respect and something everyone could implement daily.
5. What tools does your book suggest readers use to solve this problem?
In Paleo Primer we emphasise the need to see food as medicine and the importance of investing in both sourcing and preparing your own food. We devoted a whole chapter to Meals in Minutes that are a healthy equivalent to ready meals, to help keep people on track when really pushed for time. We address how people eat foods and discourage rushing meals and eating in front of the TV. We recommend batch cooking to minimize your time in the kitchen, for example, cooking extra dinner so that it can be eaten for lunch the following day. For special occasions or when you may have more time there are more creative, indulgent recipes in the Paleo Comfort Foods section so you dont miss your favourite meals at all. Whether you have 5 minutes or 30 minutes we have a recipe for you!
6. What do you see as the essential important message readers will take away from your book?
Eating good quality, nutritious food is easier and tastier than you realise. Living a healthy life and feeling awesome just requires a little structure and know how. Our health is our life force and should always be top priority; Paleo Primer is a guide to making healthy easy.
7. What did you learn about yourself in the process of writing this book?
We both learnt that anything is possible! We put the book together alongside our full time work running our own business and at times it was exhausting, however, our passion to change lives and help others really kept us charging towards our unrealistic deadline.
Matt: I discovered Im a natural in the kitchen and have continued putting my healthy stamp on some awesome recipes. Ive learnt so much about nutrition, cooking and food, this feels like just the start of my journey.
Keris: I love researching the benefits of ingredients, recipe ideas and facts about foods but practically Im a nightmare in the kitchen. When trying to help Matt I set fire to a tea towel, burnt a roast dinner, and kept knocking over jars of ingredients! In my defense though, Im definitely the better photographer. Were a great team :-)
8. What did you discover about others during the process of writing this book?
Our families and friends were incredibly supportive in helping to create the book. Proofing and testing recipes, providing feedback and just propping us up when we needed. We feel indebted to them as we would be lost without them and doubt the book would even exist. Also the response from the industry we work in has been overwhelming. Many nutritionists, personal trainers and gyms have not gone out of their way to congratulate us and have also been hugely instrumental in the success of our sales by spreading the word. Weve been truly humbled by the kindness and loyalty of those around us (especially as we missed several birthdays and social events as we were too busy creating chaos in the kitchen!) What quote from your book do you think best summarizes its content, over all message, and intent?
Nutrition that brings out the best in you!"

Science made simple. Great contribution to a healthy lifestyle and proves healthy food can be delicious!

Laura C., United Kingdom

A must buy! Really simple and clear instructions on how to make some great, tasty, healthy meals and snacks.

Michael Lindsay, United Kingdom

Intelligent and witty prose. This book says everything about food and health that I truly believe in, but sometimes stumble to find words to explain in easy terms myself. Only after 70 pages of this fascinating and easy-to-read nutritional backgroundlittered with brilliantly funny illustrations and charming coffee cup stainsdo we come to the 100-plus delicious recipes. Fantastically, there is not a single recipe without an accompanying mouth-watering picture.

Ceri Jones, United Kingdom

Nothing like anything else. So far every recipe I have used has tasted awesome. Ive used it for friends and family; it makes good food tasty! Simple as that. Well worth it just for the information on healthy eating at the beginning of the book.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

A massive thank you goes out to Mark Sisson and his staff for bringing this book to the American audience under The Paleo Primer name. We are beyond thrilled with your adaptation! This book was originally published in the UK under the name Fitter Food: A Lifelong Recipe for Health and Fat Loss. We put it together in just over four months. So many people went the extra mile and dropped everything to help us meet the rather ambitious deadline on our first version.

It could not have happened without our wonderful parents. They helped in every way possible: cooking, tasting, editing, and helping to research recipes and ingredients. To devote ourselves to that project, we reduced our working hours and moved back home to enable us to invest everything in the project. Firstly, a BIG thank you to Christine Lashmar (Matts mom) for putting up with us invading her kitchen, and a huge congratulations to her for losing 21 pounds in the process, by eating paleo, of course! Another BIG thank you to Celine Marsden (Keriss mom), who deserves special recognition for all her hard work applying paleo principles to some of her traditional family recipes and helping to transform them into the healthy recipes featured in the book.

A big thank you to Thomas Marsden (Keriss brother) for lending us his culinary advice and expertise and assisting in the photo editing process. Words cannot even begin to describe our gratitude toward Katherine Keeble, quite simply the BEST book designer in the world! Katherine worked around the clock to make the British version of this book ready for press. She advised on everything from publication, printing, e-books, and portion size to oven temperatures and baking cookies.

Our fantastic illustrations are the work of Mark Goodhead, aka Mr. Sketchy. You can check out more of his work at CargoCollective.com/mrsketchy. We would also personally like to thank nutritionist Calum Gore of Unique Nutritionists for mentoring us through the science behind digestive well-being and food intolerance testing. More details can be found at mrtuk.co.uk. Furthermore, wed like to thank the fantastic lecturers at the College of Naturopathic Medicine, with an extra special thank you to Fiona Hyams and Emma Mihill for simply being inspirational Naturopaths.

We wish to thank all our Fitter London members, a bunch of totally cool people committed to health and fitness as a lifestyle. Their spirit and enthusiasm provides us with daily inspiration and makes our job totally awesome.

We are truly blessed to be surrounded by such amazing, talented people on both sides of the pond!
