The Paleo Diet was developed by Dr. Loren Cordain, a renowned researcher in the field of the paleolithic age. The paleo diet is the “hunter gatherer” diet – based on foods our ancestors would have eaten as they followed herds of game for food and clothing and foraged for whatever vegetation was readily available. Here is a thumbnail sketch!
Advocates of the paleo diet believe that food is genetically coded to our human bodies. They believe that regular consumption of foods outside this category are what result in inflammation and a variety of our modern day diseases.
Dr. Cordain recognizes that it is impractical in our modern day to eat a paleo diet 100% of the time. He suggests that novices start with an 85:15 approach allowing for 3 “cheat” meals per week to enjoy foods that have been a part of their regular diet. After a few weeks they then advance to the 90:10 level, reducing their “cheat’ meals to 2 per week.
