This ebook/cookbook provides useful information to help you know what to eat so you can get the most pleasure and nutrition from food.

Take note that this book does not replace medical advice and treatments; consult your doctor or dietician before taking on this diet or any kind of diet.

The Paleo Diet Explained

The Paleolithic (Paleo) Diet is a nutritional diet that copies what cavemen ate between 200,000 and 12,000 years ago. This diet includes everything that Paleolithic people ate and excludes everything that they didnt. The main idea behind this is that our present bodies have retained characteristics that were suitable during ancient times, and our modern foods do not harmonize well with our biology. By consuming what our forebears ate, we can match more closely what our bodies were meant to consume. This results in better overall health and greater freedom from food-induced discomforts.

These are the features of the Paleo diet:

Increased amounts of protein

Proteins carry out a lot of roles in the body provide structure to the body, grow and repair body tissues, transport nutrients, maintain the balance of acid and base levels, support your ability to resist illnesses, perform hormonal tasks, instigate chemical actions, and more. The foods that they come from are called grow foods because they help the body grow. Ancient people ate a lot of protein numerous studies estimate this to be around 60 to 80 percent of the total diet. Most of that came from animals that they have hunted.

In comparison, the modern diet comprises of less than 45 percent of protein. The reduction of protein consumption started when people learned how to farm plant food, which caused them to stop relying heavily on meat for sustenance. Although agriculture has made us eat more kinds of food, they are not that suitable for our bodies as compared to what humans originally ate. The Paleo Diet restores dietary protein levels to their previous amounts to boost health.

Reduced intake of carbohydrates

The major components of go foods (energy giving foods) are carbohydrates. The body is not used to digesting carbohydrates that are not derived from vegetables. The human race is relatively new to cultivated plants such as grains and sugars so our bodies are not adapted to them. Refined carbohydrates are the worst kind because they are stripped of nutrients and they may contain chemicals that harm the body. Many kinds of illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, heart diseases, and hormonal imbalances are caused by too much carbs.

Vegetable and plants are healthier sources of good carbohydrates, and these are incorporated in the diet. Plant-derived carbohydrates form 35 to 45 percent of the total calories consumed in the Paleo diet. To compare, the regular diet has 45 to 65 percent carbs. Grains and dairy foods contribute much of the carbohydrates in modern diets, but these are strictly excluded in Paleo because of their negative effects.

Abundance of micronutrients

Protein, carbohydrates, fats, and water are macronutrients. These provide energy and they balance the body metabolism. Micronutrients are minerals, vitamins, phytochemicals, and antioxidants their sources constitute the Glow foods. They play essential functions in the maintenance of the body parts and the regulation of body processes. A person achieves health when he/she gets the right amounts of these nutrients. Paleolithic eaters gain three times as much micronutrients than we do today because they snacked on more vegetables and fruits back then. They also consumed more Potassium, Calcium, Iron, and Zinc from fresh foods. The Paleo Diet instructs people to consume more nutritious and unprocessed foods to get these vital micronutrients.
