The Paleo Diet Explained
/What is the paleo diet?
In this video I explain the basics of the Paleo Diet and Lifestyle. Most importantly, I answer if it is right for you.
Paleo is not a low carb or high protein diet. While some gurus push it as such, the National Institute of Health research shows the focus to be on low processed foods that can grow in the wild.
Is paleo a weight loss plan? If you have been eating a lot of processed food and sodas, you will likely lose weight when you kickstart your paleo diet.
Should you do the paleo diet? If you have medical or health concerns that would benefit from no grain or low grain, or no dairy, the paleo diet would fit in with an Intuitive Eating plan.
If you are trying Paleo as your next diet, another form of restricting you eating habits, it could trigger the diet mentality and not be the best for you.
