The Healthiest Way to Eat Paleo:
There have been about a half dozen studies published on Paleo-type diets, starting around 20 years ago. For example, in what sounds like a reality TV show: ten diabetic Australian Aborigines were dropped off in a remote location to fend for themselves, hunting and gathering foods like figs and crocodiles. In Modern Meat Not Ahead of the Game, my video on wild game, I showed that kangaroo meat causes a significantly smaller spike of inflammation compared to retail meat like beef. Of course, ideally we’d eat anti-inflammatory foods, but wild game is so low in fat that you can design a game-based diet with under 7 percent of calories from fat. Skinless chicken breast, in comparison, has 14 times more fat than kangaroo meat. So you can eat curried kangaroo with your cantaloupe (as they did in the study) and drop your cholesterol almost as much as eating vegetarian. So, how did the “contestants” do? Well, nearly anything would have been preferable to the diet they were eating before, which was centered on refined carbs, soda, beer, milk, and cheap fatty meat. They did pretty well, though, showing a significantly better blood sugar response—but it was due to a ton of weight loss because they were starving. Evidently, they couldn’t catch enough kangaroos, so even if they had been running around the desert for seven weeks on 1,200 daily calories of their original junky diet, they may have done just as well. We’ll never know, though, because there was no control group. Some of the other Paleo studies have the same problem: They’re small and short with no control groups, yet still report favorable results. The findings of one such study are no surprise, given that subjects cut their saturated fat intake in half, presumably because they cut out so much cheese, sausage, or ice cream. In another study, nine people went Paleo for ten days. They halved their saturated fat and salt intake, and, as one might expect, their cholesterol and blood pressure dropped. The longest Paleo study had been only 3 months in duration, until a 15-month study was conducted—but it was done on pigs. The pigs did better because they gained less weight on the Paleo diet. Why? Because they fed the Paleo group 20 percent fewer calories. The improvement in insulin sensitivity in pigs was not reproduced in a study on people, however. Although, there were some benefits like improved glucose tolerance, thanks to these dietary changes: The Paleo group ate less dairy, cereals, oil, and margarine, and ate more fruits and nuts, with no significant change in meat consumption. A follow-up study also failed to find improved glucose tolerance in the Paleo group over the control group, but did show other risk factor benefits. And no wonder! Any diet cutting out dairy, doughnuts, oil, sugar, candy, soda, beer, and salt is likely to make people healthier and feel better. In my video Paleo Diet Studies Show Benefits, you can see a day’s worth of food on the Standard American Diet, filled with pizza, soda, burgers, processed foods, and sweets, versus a Paleo diet, which, surprisingly, has lots of foods that actually grew out of the ground. But the Paleo diet also prohibits beans. Should we really be telling people to stop eating beans? Well, it seems hardly anyone eats them anyway. Only about 1 in 200 middle-aged American women get enough, with more than 96 percent of Americans not even reaching the minimum recommended amount. So telling people to stop isn’t going to change their diet very much. I’m all for condemning the Standard American Diet’s refined carbs, “nonhuman mammalian milk”, and junk foods, but proscribing legumes is a mistake. As I’ve noted before, beans, split peas, chickpeas, and lentils may be the most important dietary predictor of survival. Beans and whole grains are the dietary cornerstones of the longest living populations on Earth. Plant-based diets in general and legumes in particular are a common thread among longevity blue zones around the world. The bottom line may be that reaching for a serving of kangaroo may be better than a cheese danish, “but foraging for…[an] apple might prove to be the most therapeutic of all.” I’ve reported previously on Paleo’s disappointing results in Paleo Diets May Negate Benefits of Exercise. The underlying philosophy behind “caveman” diets may be flawed in the first place. See:
So, What’s the Natural Human Diet? Watch the video! The wild game video I mentioned is Modern Meat Not Ahead of the Game. Kangaroo is kind of the Australian version of venison. Note that it also matters how the animals are killed. See Filled Full of Lead and Lead Contamination in Fish and Game. And, for more on the musical fruit, see:

Health Benefits of Organic Food:
Health Benefits of Organic FoodOrganic foods seem to be taking over the grocery store, and for good reason. Although organic foods typically cost more, their health benefits far outweigh their costs. Before you go organic, you should understand what it means for your health as well as the welfare of your environment. What are the health benefits of organic food? There some very promising research on the health benefits of eating an organic diet. Some of the latest research has shown that organic fruits and vegetables contain many more nutrients and antioxidants. This is because chemical pesticides cause nutrients to break down, interfering with regular growth. No matter how much you wash conventionally grown fruits and vegetables, nutritionists have shown that pesticide and herbicide residues remain. This residue is then ingested and often builds up in your body. Organic produce is almost completely free of these toxic chemicals which have been shown to cause a number of life-threatening disorders. Prolonged exposure to these substances may wreak havoc on your body over time and those goes to show why organic foods are so important. All health concerns aside, most believe organic foods taste a whole lot better as well. Because it is often local, it is usually much fresher and has not been shipped over long distances. Shipping drains produce of nutrients and flavour over time, and often requires additional chemical use. Organic foods must be certified on all ends of production. This includes the farm and all other products involved in planting and harvesting. Before they can legally sell their product, farmers must demonstrate that it contains at least 95% organic material. The certification for a product to be labelled organic is a strict and often costly expense on the vendor’s behalf. Going organic not only benefits you, it also benefits the workers and communities who would otherwise have to expose themselves to harsh chemicals. Organic farming is much gentler on the environment because it uses sustainable farming practices. Going organic is a win-win situation all around. By being good to your body, you can also be good to your environment. But remember, it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Buy organic as much and as often as you can, within your own personal budget. Every little bit is a step towards better health. If you don’t know where to start, remember that certain foods have more pesticide, antibiotic, or growth hormone use. The following is a list of good items to start buying organic. Start with these, and add to your list over time. You won’t be disappointed.
Also if you’re looking for a good organic snack to have for when you’re on the run try Organic Protein Food Bar. Tip – If you are unsure of what to buy organic, or can’t go all organic just yet, start with your favourites. You’ll reduce your chemical exposure faster if you start with the foods you eat on a regular basis. What is your top organic food choice?
