Living Paleo For Dummies

A fun and practical guide for adopting Paleo diet principles
into your daily life

The human body survived for more than 2 million years with the
food found in nature: game meat, fish, vegetables, wild fruits,
eggs, and nuts. Humans were thriving on this diet high in animal
fat and proteins and low in carbohydrates, but things changed when
we introduced unnatural and processed foods to our bodies. The
Paleo movement is one of today's hottest diet and healthy-eating
approaches. Its appeal comes from the fact that it is a sustainable
alternative to more restrictive diets that often lead to burnout
and failed weight loss efforts. The Paleo diet is about using
natural foods to achieve great health and a perfect physique.

Living Paleo For Dummies shows you how to adopt the Paleo
lifestyle and improve your health and longevity. Offering more than
40 recipes for every meal of the day, and providing tips for
getting around common roadblocks such as eating out, this essential
guide to adopting a primal diet also provides the latest, cutting
edge research from genetics, biochemistry, and anthropology to help
you look, feel, and perform your best.

• The details of eating the foods that our bodies were designed
  to eat

• A complete introductory plan to kick start the Paleo
  journey

• Tricks to save on the food bill while adhering to a primal meal
  plan

Living Paleo For Dummies is for anyone looking for a fun
and informative guide that simplifies the complexities of the Paleo
Diet while outlining and explaining the science behind the
benefits.
