The Paleo path - sneak peek

Think of the Paleo diet and you might picture neanderthals sitting round a fire in loincloths, tearing hunks of meat off the bone. Ceri Jones is here to show us that there is far more to the Paleo lifestyle than this; it can be a simple, delicious and modern way of living.

Extract from Issue One

"The basic concept of the Paleo diet is eating food in its most natural state - as humans would have done in the Palaeolithic or caveman era. Obviously we don't know everything about how cavemen really did eat, since there were no books or records then. However we have a pretty good idea that they ate indigenously and only ate foods that were available to them - meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds.

With the Paleo diet (or lifestyle as is often preferred) a strong emphasis is placed on the quality of the ingredients - grass-fed meat, free-range poultry and eggs, cold-pressed oils, organically grown and produced where possible. This is particularly important since agriculture and modern farming developments with pesticides and growing hormones have greatly affected the quality of 21t century food - cavemen didn't feed their chickens a little pill to make them grown quicker and fatter, or feed them cheap mass-produced grains."
