This book is a good introduction to the paleo way of life. After reading it I've become a big supporter of the Paleo diet concept and the idea that we need to eat the traditional foods to be healthy.So stop eating store bought food that comes in boxes, bottles, cans, etc., and get back to a natural and healthy diet. As the author states in the book "If I could hunt it... or pick it from the ground or from a tree and eat it, then it's something worth having in my diet." I find this simple idea to be very helpful to remind me what is good to add to my diet and what is not.The author includes an extensive list of Plaeo friendly foods and beverages and a second list of foods that we should avoid. Animal proteins (lean meats & fish), veggies, fruits, berries and nuts, all these are good choices to add to your diet.He also includes some relatively easy and tasty recipes to get you up and running with Paleo. The recipes are very down to earth.For anyone new to the Paleo diet, Roger Thatt's book is a perfect starting place.If you want to lose weight, if you want to attain optimal energy and health, this book will work wonders. Highly recommended.
