I am not interested in what the article has to say and haven't bothered reading it.
I have read a number of books on the topic of paleo. Many do give detail about what our palaeolithic ancestors did and didn't eat and how much healthier they are compared to the those who ate grains and farmed. But while that information was interesting, it wasn't what made me start eating paleo.
What made me start eating paleo was the information in the books about how grains, including whole wheat, are treated by our body. Or how as society started following low fat diet recommendations their waste sizes started growing.
The books also listed off a number of health benefits that would happen as a result of following this diet, some seemed too unbelievable to be true. Here is a quick list from Robb Wolf about what he says are the benefits of eating paleo.
That is why I had decided to give the paleo diet a try.
Here is why 6+ months later I am still eating this way. These are the benefits to my family of eating the paleo diet:
- Weight loss
- Not bloated all the time
- More energy
- Sleep better
- Allergies and asthma have all but disappeared
- Less headaches
To all those critics out there who like to bash this diet or try to discredit it, I strongly recommend that you just TRY IT! You will be amazed at how much better you feel.
