What is Paleo?
First of all, Paleo is NOT a diet. A diet restricts the quantity of food you intake. Paleo is a LIFESTYLE. Paleo is what you put in your mouth...not really the quantity. Paleo is the healthiest way to eat. A balance of protein, carbohydrates, fats and nuts/seeds. It allows your body to function the way it was meant to function. Be eating ONLY clean foods, you are eliminating processed foods that are filled with chemicals and words that most of us cant pronounce...much less spell.
All of these refined foods, trans-fats and SUGAR are at the core of many...many increasingly popular diseases we face today...obesity, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, depression, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, etc, etc, etc. All of these have steadily increased since the agricultural revolution and the curve is growing faster and faster.
Is it more expensive to buy a chicken breast with your spinach salad for lunch that the McDonalds value meal??? Yes... yes it is....but how do you put a price on adding 20 plus years to your life? Not just 20 more years...but years of healthy...fulfilled life where you are not living off and machines or out of a wheelchair? I'm not being melodramatic...look around...this stuff is real.
This Sunday, we are starting our first of many Paleo Challenges. This challenge is NOT intended to be "pass or fail". Many of you will have moments of weakness and eat a piece (or two) of little Johnny's birthday cake....and that's OK! When you fall off, get right back on. Every time you stumble...get back up and keep trying. It's not the end of the world.
I have created and Paleo Support Group via Facebook. I am pretty sure I have everyone accounted for. Please let me know if I left any one off.
Here is a great story about Paleo.... http://www.paleoplan.com/2013/09-16/paleo-success-story-xxxl-to-m-shirts/
