Post by moremuscle »

The following is a link to an article written by an Archeologist about nutrition - relating paleolithic diet to the modern neolithic diet. Well written, informative, and easy to read. I hope you will enjoy reading:

"Thanks. That's a very excellent article. It not only eloquently states the historical case for a high-protein diet, but it also makes the case for a diet utilizing lots of fruits and vegetables. It even outlines the current day dilema with our dietary ratio of omega-6's to omega-3's. It's a good summary of the various components of the paleo diet, that we need to remember and apply to our own diets."
Inspired by the paleolithic diet and lifestyle -
living w/o gluten, dairy, soy, corn, and yeast.
