Paleo diet calling us to get back to old times, when ancient people do not know what is a microwave and did not eat semi-manufactured food. What is bread, sugar and other „delights“ modern time ancient people did not know! Some modern nutritionists are calling the Paleo diet the most natural power supply system for a person no matter what century he lives.
Paleo diet (sometimes called – The diet of ancient people or Paleolithic Diet) it may seem strange, but have been developed from side of our contemporaries – American nutritionists Lauren Kordeyn and Oz Garcia; the authors of numerous books on healthy eating.
They consult Hollywood stars in matters of proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. The ideological component of the Paleo diet is based on the belief that people should eat food suitable for them at the genetic level, only in that case humans will not have a problem with extra kilograms.
Paleo diet as a system does not only taking care of external looks but also about human health. If you want to follow the rules of the Paleo diet you need to eat natural products such as roots, berries, plants, herbs, fruits, and vegetables growing in the wild.
Eat less and move more. There should be a small number of portions. Eat only if you are hungry (not “for the company”, “because I feel sadness,” or because “I did not eat a long time”). Keep an active lifestyle. Our ancestors worked hard to provide all the necessary for living and survival.
Do not eat carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates (sugar, sweet drinks, fast food, sweets, semi-finished products) in large quantities. All that must be excluded from the diet. Carbohydrate diet is contrary to the human genome; which according to nutritionists Kordeyn and Garcia changed despite a long and tortuous evolutionary process.
Completely exclude industrial sugar from the diet (you can only keep natural honey in your menu). Sugar is not only a serious disease but also contributes to obesity and increasing the frequency and intensity of insulin emission into the bloodstream.
Any meat which you using in “The ancient people diet” must be dietary and low-fat. If you can control the level of the insulin in the body then you can successfully lose weight – says Paleo diet. By the way, this statement is also shared by those who want to lose weight by eating foods with a low glycemic index.
Weight Loss and external transformation – is only a consequence of the positive effect of the Paleo diet. The main advantages of this nutrition are in health. This diet for example:
- Improves hormones level;
- Reduce the level of harmful cholesterol in the blood;
- The Paleo diet is an excellent prevention of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease;
- Normalize blood pressure;
- The Paleo diet prevents depression and increases resistance to stress;
- Sticking to the Paleo diet for two weeks can help you to “lose” up to 3 kg of excess weight.
Many public figures and show business stars using the Paleo diet not only for losing weight. For example, the Paleo diet helps actress Robin Wright to stay young and attractive. Our ancestors did not have sushi and pizza delivery and there were no machines with chips and nuts.
Maybe it is the time for the current generation, who are suffering from overeating and obesity, get back to our roots and radically change their nutrition? Enough of being sick! It is time to be healthy.
