Author: The theory behind the Paleo Diet is quite simple. Cordain believes that in the days of early hunter gatherers and current hunter gatherers diet was much more suitable to the genetic design of human bodies. The theory has it that by using a reduction in the intake of complex carbohydrates and high glycemic index foods and increasing consumption of meats, seafood, whole fruits and vegetables we can greatly reduce problems like heart disease and diabetes that plague modern day western society.
Exercise does not feature heavily in the Paleo dieting process. In fact, no exercise is recommended for the initial two weeks you are on the diet. On the other hand, there is no discouragement of exercise either.
Like any diet the Paleo Diet has its advantages and disadvantages. The benefits are that this diet encourages healthy eating. It also includes a website that fully explains all the research and theory that goes into the e-book and the overall diet. The disadvantages are that the diet focuses only on eating habits and obesity rather than genetic factors that may also cause weight problems in some people.
The Paleo Diet book has both a list of the foods it recommends for eating as well as numerous recipes for maintaining your diet routine. These foods include high protein meat, poultry, fish, eggs, many vegetables, along with various fruit and nuts. While the recipes have an interesting blend of different meats, poultry, fish, eggs and vegetables. The diet is not excessively restrictive and far less limiting than the Pritikin diet for example.
