PALEO

READ THIS!!!!

In a nutshell, the Paleolithic Diet or the “Caveman” diet consists of:

Meats
Vegetables
Nuts and Seeds
Some Fruit
Little Starch
NO SUGAR

Here is a generic grocery list that you can choose from each item:

Meats: Turkey, Fish, Chicken, Lean Red Meat (stay as lean as possible), and eggs are considered a source of protein.
Veggies: Anything green, EAT IT! These foods are micro-nurtient dense and contain a lot of fiber which means your body only takes what it needs and disgards the rest. Also remember, vegetables are lower in calories so you can eat more of them.
Nuts and Seeds: Walnuts, Macadamia Nuts, and Almonds are the best. Raw and unsalted of course. Peanuts and Cashews are considered legumes which have bad forms of lectin which promote cholesterol.
Some Fruit: Not all fruits are created equal. Stick to lower glycemic load fruits such as apples and berries. If you must have a banana or more sugary fruit, have it in the morning.
Little Starch: Little to NO grains. This includes no breads, rices, pastas, etc. Bake sweet potato isn’t bad post WOD but other than that, get all your carbohydrates from your fruits and veggies.
NO SUGAR: Anything that says “sugar free” has some sort of artificial sweetener in it which will natural spike that insulin response. All your sugar should be coming from your natural foods (i.e. fruit!).
