Paleo Recipes for a Healthier You
The Paleo diet has been making the rounds and many people have found that it suits them. This is one thing that is very important when considering a diet. It should be easy enough for you to do, and should be enjoyable enough that you do not feel burdened by it. The Paleolithic diet is based on the idea that our ancestors from that period were already highly similar to what we are now, physically. This means that their digestive systems were already very much like what we have today. With this premise, the paleo diet follows that we should have a diet that is similar to what they had before since this is what we have evolved from.
Examples of these foods include, but are not limited to meats that were hunted, fished and gathered as well as other foods that can be gathered, like fruits, nuts, eggs and vegetables, during the end of the Paleolithic period. The following are several breakfast recipes that can help you for several days. Start your Paleo journey today!
