Well they certainly did not eat fast food loaded with salt, trans-fats, HFCS and other highly processed/refined grains. A diet of fresh meat and produce is much closer to what our human bodies are designed to eat than the corporate crap provided to us by McDonalds, Kraft,Nabisco, and the ilk. “… based on speculation to some degree, as it is impossible to be certain what exactly our Paleolithic ancestors ate”?

I am 20 years old and have been overweight all my life even as a child. Going into my junior year of college and being 6' 3'' and weighing over 300 lbs was not fun. So I saw this diet and went along with it and added exercise a couple days a week. Well, in the past 30 days I have lost 23 lbs and continue to lose weight nearly everyday. granted with this diet I try to stay around 1200 calories a day. But This diet is amazing!! I have wrestled, played football and this diet has lost me more wieght in one month then those sports did all season. If you are overweight or obese, go on this diet. You will not regret it!!

Plus, if you go off the diet you will realize how bad other foods are for you. It might be tough to get started on but it will change your life.

I feel better and less bloated. Many of my symptoms have disappeared and I feel more energetic. I also sleep better and have no restless leg issues. Better food guidelines I have seen yet.

I also feel bloated with grains, just extra pudgy. I am going to go back on this 'diet' realy i think just the way we are ment to eat, and see if i can lose my pudge for summer:) i did this diet for a week, my digestion improved, my body became leaner, realy just from a week. then i decided to try grains and stuff again and i felt sluggish and had poor digestion lke it just seems to take all day for grains to leave your stomach.

It essentially mimics the specific carbohydrate diet that was designed to heal gut disorders. I have celiacs disease, allergies and ADD and following this paleolithic diet remarkably eliminates all symptoms. I have more energy and stamina and require about two hours less sleep. This is without changing exercise schedules. I do focus on veg and limit fruit intake though. Definitely worth a shot, and it doesn't cost more than your average western diet with all it's value added products. The key is to satiate with good fats. Actually really easy to follow.

The person writing the critiques needs to get up to speed on healtful diets as dairy/ milk products are not suitable for human consumption and actually inhibit the absorption of calcium. Green leafy veggies are the way to go. Also, modern day fruit is higher in sugars and lower in fiber than our ancestors had. I agree with Dewayne about the beans.
