I've been a fan of the paleo diet for a while, at least in part. I've modified it to fit what I need as an athlete, because certain things (like caloric intake) simply require the use of dairy or grains because they're so calorie-dense in comparison to greens. -Minimal grains (1-2 servings a day at MOST, if at all) -More green vegetables and starchy carbs (yams, potatoes, pulses) -More healthy fat - eggs, almonds, fish -More protein through animal sources; eggs, red meat, poultry, fish, etc - Only 3-4 servings of dairy a day. http://www.paleodiet.com/I haven't been following it too heavily lately because I've been really busy and out of sorts, and I can tell that the change back to eating more grainy carbs has affected me. I'm lethargic, and I've put on about 5-8 pounds over the past 2ish months because of it, despite the fact I'm not really over-eating that much at all. EDIT:: That isn't to say I support everything Mercola says. I don't believe in nutritional typing. I think red meat is acceptable within the paleo diet, because I think it very likely that paleolithic man could hunt bovine animals like cows. I also think starches - potatoes, yams, etc - are also acceptable, because they don't have the same problems as grains do.

I've actually been interested in learning more about this lately! Thanks ^^
I believe there is NOTHING wrong with eating as our ancestors did for thouuuusandds of years, rather than eating all this irradiated, chemical laden, toxxxxic food implemented in just the past generation or two (NOT long enough to determine it's safety, and most already proven time and time again that is NOT safe and yet still pushed into our diets - ew.)
Speaking of diets... I like the Honest Food Guide; most have probably heard of it by now... it's much more informative than the regular food guides taught in school (bleh!)
biggrin
Thanks for sharing! I'm gonna go read more on paleonutritionzz ^^

This diet will not benefit you at all, but in the long run a vegan raw fruits and veggies diet is the best thing for you.
Do you not realize how many parasites meat contains in general even after you cook it. Meat is a survival food, as we live today we do not need meat to keep us alive. Please watch a video call "meet your meat". I do not like peta, but the information in it is true.

Cooking meat to well done (no redness at all visible upon cutting it) kills any parasites that may be in the meat, and commercially raised cattle are routinely medicated before sale with to ensure they are parasite free at the sale yards.

The animals in this country especially when it comes to farms, slaughter houses etc are one of the poorly treated in the world. Do you not realize that 80% of the meat at slaughter houses are malnourished, diseased [which includes bovine aids, cancers, leukemia, etc], lame, abused and on their death bed before the farmers decided to condemn them to slaughter. No other country in the world has a meat industry like the US. There is a reason why there are so many recalls in meat and animal products. Its because most farmers and meat processing plants don't take well enough care of their animals or their facilities. I guess you don't know the statics of the chances of getting rotten meat before it even arrives at the store. If you are putting trust in the facilities, farms, and organizations/associations that their meat products are the safeties they can possibly be, then I am afraid that you need to get yourself educated as to what you are really putting into your body and the effects it has.

The meat industry PeTA describes is only in existence in the undeveloped world , in developed nations there are strict standards regarding the quality of meat and all meat is screened for disease before it even reaches the meat works , with substandard animals being rejected by the buyers, there are also strict penalties for animal abuse so there are no animals at 'death's door' for these reasons and even if one showed up at a sale yard it would fail inspection and at best it might end up as pet food or fertilizer if they are just malnourished or destroyed and buried in quicklime if they are diseased, as the UK did during the BSE epidemic (where the army culled all the potential carrier animals in the affected areas) . linkBuyers for meat works are very choosy about the stock they purchase to preserve the reputation of their companies and will only select healthy animals for human consumption and inspect them at the factory rejecting ones with evidence of disease and grade the rest by quality. Even US Canner, the lowest USDA grade for human consumption meets this minimum standard. And the risk of cancer from eating meat is only the case if meat is consumed in excess of the recommended amount of 500g (18oz) of red meat per week , and studies have shown that lean beef with its high selenium and B12 content may actually lower the risk of colonic cancer if eaten as part of a balanced diet. ( link) Seriously you need to look for another source apart from PeTA. They are not exactly well known for their treatment of the truth (or animals for that matter. They give vegetarianism a bad name and are the source of most of the misconceptions people have about vegans. http://www.petakillsanimals.com/

And as far as animals being turned away you better think again. link What does it say to you when other countries around the world won't accept the meat that we try to export there? There's must be something wrong with it if "less developed" countries as you call them would rather have their meat from their own country over meat from ours. If you think that its not bad for the animals at these places think about how bad it is for the people that work there. If the factories can't even treat their workers well what makes you think that they care about the quality of the meat that comes through? linkMore reason to think about beef linkanother linkyet anotherAs far as B12 goes even most meat eaters are b12 deficient because B12 is actually a nutrient that in found in the soil and is absorbed into plants. The reason most people even when they live on a planted based diet are susceptible to the b12 deficiency is because most soil in the US is dead or near dead because of all the agricultural chemicals being put into the soil and being sprayed onto the crops. link I'm sorry, but I can't help to notice that everyone promoting a high fat high protein diet is fat themselves. Almost all of the elite athletes in the world have a low far high carb diet. learn something.
