Paleo Meals

The Paleo Diet is based on whole, unprocessed, energy-giving foods that humans were programmed by nature to eat. Paleo dieters may be motivated to lose weight, but the Paleo way has also been shown to ease digestive diseases, skin conditions, arthritis, and cardiovascular disease.
~ Loren Cordain, Ph.D, creator of The Paleo Diet

• Eating the Paleo Way avoids dairy, grains, refined sugar and alcohol
• Meat - pasture-raised, grass-fed or wild
• Seafood - wild-caught and sustainable
• Eggs - from pasture-raised birds
• Vegetables - organic
• Fermented foods
• Spices
• Healthy fats - olive oil, coconut oil, nut oils, ghee, animal fats, avocados and avocado oils

Eating the Paleo Way, you will lose weight, reduce your risk for the metabolic syndrome (high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease), autoimmune diseases, cancers, and nearly every other chronic illness that troubles the western world. Your sleep will improve, you will have even more energy throughout the day. More important, you won't feel hungry all day because high-protein foods satiate the brain's appetite center.
