Paleo diet
What is Paleo Diet?
A paleo diet, also known as the Caveman Diet is a dietary plan based on foods similar to what might have been eaten during the Paleolithic era, which dates from approximately 2.5 million to 10,000 years ago.
​
A paleo diet typically includes lean meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, foods that in the past could be obtained by hunting and gathering.
A paleo diet limits foods that became common when farming emerged about 10,000 years ago.
These foods include dairy products, legumes and grains

Weight loss effects of Paleo Diet
The aim of a paleo diet is to return to a way of eating that's more like what early humans ate.
The diet's reasoning is that the human body is genetically mismatched to the modern diet that emerged with farming practices, an idea known as the discordance hypothesis.
​
Farming changed what people ate and established dairy, grains and legumes as additional staples in the human diet.
This relatively late and rapid change in diet, according to the hypothesis, outpaced the body's ability to adapt.
This mismatch is believed to be a contributing factor to the prevalence of obesity, diabetes and heart disease today.
​
A number of clinical trials have compared the paleo diet to other eating plans, such as the Mediterranean Diet or the Diabetes Diet.
Overall, these trials suggest that a paleo diet provides some benefits when compared with diets of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, whole grains, legumes and low-fat dairy products.
These benefits include:
-
More weight loss

Improved glucose tolerance

Better blood pressure control
