What to Expect on the Paleo Diet A Hilarious Look at What It’s Really Like to Go Paleo. February 23, 2018 by Lizzie Fuhr. 317 Shares After reading all the hype about the Paleo diet, a.
The results that you should expect from the Paleo diet are going to depend on how committed you are to the diet and whether or not you implement the diet properly. According to a small sample sized study, the Paleolithic diet improves glycemic control and lowers several risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease. 3.
If you aren’t familiar with the Paleo diet, it’s fairly straight forward. The philosophy is that the most nutritionally beneficial foods are those that our ancestors ate. Those foods include meat, vegetables, wild caught fish, nuts, seeds and fruit. Foods excluded from the diet are grains, dairy, legumes, refined oils and refined sugars.
Walking is a perfectly legitimate option. Focus on meat and vegetables; limit Paleo “cookies,” “pancakes,” and other treats. Avoid large servings of nuts, dried fruit, fruit juice, and liquid calories. You should not need to count calories (or carbs, or grams of fat, or anything else).The first 3 days of Paleo do not expect miracles 30 days of Paleo, bring it on. but do not even expect a good mood.
You will be having carb-withdrawal symptoms and feeling shitty and lethargic and like it’s all not worth it. Be a bitch if you need to.Dr. Loren Cordain’s final graduate student, Trevor Connor, M.S., brings more than a decade of nutrition and physiology expertise to spearhead the new Paleo Diet team.
Dr. Mark Smith One of the original members of the Paleo movement, Mark J. Smith, Ph.D., has spent nearly 30 years advocating for the benefits of Paleo nutrition.Carb flu describes the unpleasant symptoms some people experience when they begin the Paleo diet. Living Paleo means committing to a lifestyle that minimizes the toxins and chemicals to which you expose your body. When you begin your journey of cutting out the sugars and sugary carbohydrates, your body can go through a difficult transition.
Think of the main dishes you eat e.g. cereal, toast, pasta, cookies, and start replacing each with the Paleo version of them. E.g., instead of regular bread, make Paleo bread. 2. After a while, add in non-replacement foods like just vegetables and meat for a meal. 3.You probably know it as a popular diet in many CrossFit circles, and if you know anything about it, you know that going Paleo means cutting out sugars, grains, legumes, dairy, and most.
Detox pox: While you’re making this transition, you may experience other odd symptoms brought on by your body adapting to the new diet and healing from the effects of the old one. Digestive distress, allergies, and acne/blemishes may pop up. And, unfortunately, they.
Less stress and lower levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) – Magnesium in spinach, vitamin C-rich fruits and microgreens, omega 3s, adaptogens like holy basil, and zinc from beef and oysters all reduce inflammation and cortisol levels. Less painful periods – Dairy, caffeine, sugar and.Go Paleo, and you’ll eat a lot of fresh lean meats and fish, fruits, and vegetables, and healthier fats.
You can also eat: Eggs. Nuts and seeds. Healthier oils, including olive oil and coconut oil.For those looking to lose weight on the paleo diet, the experts recommend limiting fruits and squashes that are higher in carbs (e.g. bananas, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, etc.), and lean meats like turkey, chicken, seafood, and shellfish are emphasized over.
The paleo diet is a focus on eating natural, real food that is widely available with little or no processing. In other words, the paleo diet focuses on eating the way nature intended us to eat. Our current diet is relatively recent, as we’ve only been eating this way for about 10,000 years.

So basically good except for the meat, lack of vitamins and bad fats. Meh. She’s full of crap.
30% red meat 40% fat, 20% fish 10% berries, thats the origional and correct paeolithic diet
so if the plants were so unpalatable did we eat more shore food? Claims, seaweed, fish, and tubers?
These are good books for Paleo dieters: https://tinyurl.com/chefPaleo
As a native-born Midwesterner who grew up where there are almost more cattle than people, I had to smile at this video. Back there, the prize beef is corn-fed. Always has been. If somebody says they only eat grass-fed beef, well they would starve. It may be different now from when I grew up, but I’d be surprised.
A bunch of Correlation studies and trying to debunk the NAME BUT NOT THE ACTUAL DIET, lets talk about the meta analysis of these diets, She needs to debunk that, which she won’t be able to as the Data is quite clear when all diets were compared, in all the new meta analysis so who gives a damn what they ate before? But talk about the research now!!!! This video is about hypothesis and assumptions, or the fact that before obesity and diabetes were treated with the keto and paleo type of eating with AMAZING RESULTS AND WAS THE NORM! Paleo is about staying away from processed foods and pro inflammatory foods, which she clearly looks like suffers from��
You should slow slow down with meat as you get older, young people metabolism can withstand it.
How’s your cholesterol going to go up when 95 percent of us are eating these foods anyway we’re just eating a lot more junk food along with this

Straight lies. Could you tell me what the Africans eat Especially in central Africa they We’re not vegetarians your whole theory is is a lie
I’m confused, I just read the paleo diet book by Loren Cordain and the amount he goes on about how terrible bacon is gets a tiny bit annoying actually

Carnivore dieters will have a massive circle jerk about this in their echo chamber because they can’t handle the truth
1:08 You shouldn’t really be eating too much red meat…
Were done here.
What I learned from this is that the food we eat today has been greatly altered by human interference (not a judgment statement). Whether someone thinks meat is good for them or they think plants are good for them, both have been extremely altered and we don’t obtain them in the way we used to (again, no judgment). The main point is that the notion of a “paleo” diet is nonsensical, as even within the paleolithic period, many alterations in environment and processing changed. Just don’t eat McDonalds.

Is Paleo diet good for back pain? I heard it’s good for back pain. I’m not looking to loose weight. I’m fairly skinny as it is so I don’t need a diet but if it helps to rid of back pain I’m willing to try it
Ancestral diets: mostly hunting and seasonal local gathering and scavenging. That’s it. Anything else is a LIE. Especially plant based. plant based is fine to treat cardiovascular disease and certain illnesses. But it is not what we survived on historically.
Lmao. Love how she starts off with identity politics how this diet is “very masculine” advertised. Lost me right there, Karen. Thumbs down.
I can’t believe how many ignorant people are out there. All those toxic diets like keto, paleo, Atkins have been scientifically debunked and proven to be harmful. But mother nature is cruel. Gullable prey who believe those false paleo/keto diet gurus will die earlier, and as their arteries are clogged up, they won’t procreate as much.
Anyone who thinks thus video makes sense should fly to a forest in Germany right now and try living off plants

I once sat through a talk given by a climate scientist about how humans have no impact over climate change, and in it he actually just casually mentioned that evolution and dinosaurs were false. This wasn’t some guy pretending to be a scientist, either. He had a pretty substantial career in that field. But, there are always scientist that question the commonly accepted science (which isn’t a bad thing). This woman is an example of that. She questions the commonly accepted science. I think her interpretation of the science misses and overlooks a lot, and she has an agenda, just like the climate scientist I mentioned who was a creationist. But, to each their own.
Christina Warinner, gotta make a mental note of that name because this lady is just inspirational! also can we please include her name in the video title?
Wonderful video. We think Paleo is fantastic. Here’s our take on it- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inj1N_WRas8&t=63s
No eggs on the paleo diet but yet she put eggs in the pancakes no shade
The “paleo” diet is another invention to suck out money from fat (stupid) people. What those people really need is either a shrink or a complete change of their life, eg move away from english speaking countries seems their food culture is especially unhealthy. Eating mindlessly is a mindgame. Or you go the easy way and trust the science and follow the advice at eg Nutritionfacts.org
Also the maple syrup and other things you mention in this video are counter productive to weight loss.
Animal agriculture is the leading cause of global warming, deforestation (1-2 acres/ second), and species extinction.

Cavemen ate whatever cavewomen gathered while cavemen were pretending to hunt. If they brought anything back it was either a miracle or leftover cave lion roadkill.
Great Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you thought about Millawdon Perfect Body Trick (google it)? It is a good one of a kind product for getting the best paleo cookbook without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my old buddy Taylor got cool success with it.
realistically, Paleo man ate what they could find. plenty of plant matter, furit, meat when available. but the likelihood of them eating every day or foods with full flavor is slim at best. I’m on Paleo and have lost 30lbs and gained plenty of muscle. to address heart disease, yes it’s already been proven that Paleo man suffered from this but there are plenty of medical records showing folks that have been vegetarians their whole lives who have heart disease. the fact is, we still don’t understand why some people get it and some don’t.
C’ést ridicvlé!! Frvits ét égvmés actvéls sont trop récénts ét 6asés svr lé plaisir povr qvé notré vision ait évolvé povr lés réconnaîtré;
I always hear people on Paleo say they eat “Paleo + Oatmeal for breakfast”, lol. In fact, whereas I’ve heard that… I don’t think I’ve heard any Paleos recently that are not eating oatmeal for breakfast, lol.
I’ve found the best cookbook with recipes and paleo hacks, my life changed since then derpy.me/Ijv1h
Of course it’s a fraud. Prehistoric man ate everything he saw, including many insects. They would have eaten wild grass seeds, AKA grains, because they have found Paleolithic mortars for pounding grass seeds. Some could even digest milk, as they found a prehistoric cheese strainer in Switzerland, and primordial crumbs of cheese in Poland.
I tried low carb and it made me sick. I guess its not for everyone.
The only people in the world who have a recent use of a paleo diet are the Inuit of the Far North. their bodies have adapted to this diet. Most people have eaten a semi Vegan diet.
‘there is no food that is a magic cure-all’
Except fatty red meat.
ah yes, pathetic straw man jokes about modern products “proves” that humans are incapable of eating meat. what a scientist she is by skimming past relevant physical requirements to just make fun of errors made by one person in a diet book. paleo also means simple diets without processed foods or seed oils. It seems like these idiots think these ideas are wrong simply because they cant imagine themselves living this way adn cant grasp how difficult life was thousands of years ago where food had to be found in smart ways, conserving energy and extracting the most from it.
Why does she call it subsistence? this is even more moronic as these peoples do not have the awful diseases we have so who is subsisting when we are the idiots eating grains every day which make us sick.
everyone ate plants? uncultivated, randomly growing plants all year round? and this woman works at harvard hahaha. this is painful to listen to. does she have any idea how much plant matter is required to feed one person each day? it doesnt appear so as she assumes it was just all ovfer the place at all times and implying we arent made to eat meat is utterly brain dead. funny how we do so well when we eat a lot of it and how modern tribes still living in this way are so capable and fit.
my god this woman talks complete bullshit and has no clue how our physiology works. this is embarassing for her to stand up and shill for the lettuce eaters
Craprolites preserve when they’re fibrous, poop of meat eaters wouldn’t preserve at all. I feed my dog raw, bone-in turkey necks. His poop disintegrates into a powder under the slightest pressure when you pick it up. Also, the isotope measurements aren’t proof humans were carnivorous, but they’re compatible and complementary to that view. Nothing Dr. Warinner said here debunks the ‘humans evolving as meat eaters’ part of paleo… she cherry picked hunter gathers living after the period of mega fauna, when humans hunted or scavenged for much of their food. All the gut biome importance stuff is speculative and dependent on the assumption that you’re eating plants in the first place. Why think that biome is important if you don’t have plants in your gut at all?
I lost a ton of weight on bacon fat and beef. Keto and Paleo are good, but you’d get more antioxidants from Paleo.
Vegetables and fruit are seasonal. End of stupid discussion.
Too boring, this lady was blowing so hard, I thought I was at a Graduation ceremony get to the point already we got it you’re really smart. Stop telling us about your accomplishments
I lost interest in this at 8 min, when this lady affirmed that humans are not adapted to eat meat. �������������� But coming from a vegetarian committee. ��
Idiot. The people back then exercised for a living by searching for food and ate whatever they could find. The agricultural corporate farming complex wants for us to keep gorging on wheat, corn, and soy so they don’t lose their bottom line. They need to CHANGE. We need more microand phytonutrients from plants that are nutrient dense and full of antioxidents instead of pesticide ridden, carbohydrate laden, insulin producing, depleted, abused and heavily government subsidized food sources from which to try to be well.
Have you seen the recent study, “Coronary atherosclerosis in indigenous South American Tsimane: a cross-sectional cohort study,” published in The Lancet found that people from the Tsimane community are five times less likely to develop coronary atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, than people in the US and that when compared, the arteries of an 80-year-old member of the Tsimane people resembled that of an American in their mid-50s.
The Tsimane have been eating and living this way since Paleolithic times, it would seem that the paleo diet would be the way to go. But there is paleo and then there is PALEO
If we look at the macros fat, protein, and carbohydrate of what the real paleo diet of the Tsimane is and compare that to the recent so-called paleo diet, this is what we find.
The Tsimane diet largely consists of rice, plantain, cassava root, corn, nuts and fruits, with protein, mostly from animal meat accounting for 14 percent of their diet, and fat accounting for the same proportion, 14 percent. The remaining 72 percent is carbs!
If we look at the “modern” paleo diet, and there are ranges depending on which type of paleo diet you are following, the macros are closer to a ratio of 65 percent fat, 15 percent protein, and 20 percent carbohydrates. Usually, the other ranges will have even lower carbs and higher protein with slightly higher fat.
The study looked at over 700 people ages 40 to 94 from the Tsimane population by visiting 85 Tsimane villages between 2004 and 2015. The researchers did thorough medical, activity and behavioral exams and assessments including repetitive scans of the heart and coronary vessels over this eleven year period. Among other things they found that Tsimane men spend an average of six to seven hours a day engaged in physical activity, while women were active for four to six hours, and smoking was almost none existent.
she isn’t fit at all….not a good thing when you promote a diet…
She is just regurgitating what she was taught in school. If you are given the wrong info from the beginning, you will always be wrong
I haven’t heard her debunk much or anything. Rather create arguments that I personally never heard about the Paleo diet like emphasis on meat. She rather put the emphasis on plants. I think Paleo diet has more to do with abandoning processed foods and things like dairy our body isn’t used to.she is debating with arguments she created herself. People like her are probably paid to protect the junk food industry. Hasn’t she heard Paleo diet promoters speak on lean meats vs high fats?
Wow! Fantastic podcast! Thank you so much for this wonderful and enlightening info!
We are not similar to monkeys/ape Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
She nailed the absurdity of the ‘paleo diet’ spot on. It’s marketing hype that’s based on pure bs.
Ancient people got sick and died, no matter what they ate. You’re gonna get sick and die, no matter what you eat, too. You can possibly add a few years, or more, if you eat an optimally healthy diet, of course. Good luck.
Yes you are quite different from your other colleagues, academics committed to both searching for truth and elucidating the truth to the general public. Youre a disgraceful lying agenda driven propagandist intentionally telling lies to the public to further your agenda. Harvard should fire you. Youre a disgrace to your profession and should be a disgrace to Harvard. But the esteemed Harvard is no longer commited to truth either. If they were you wouldn’t have a job.
Normally I would have just laughed out loud were I to hear someone say as you did that humans hunted “small lean game” but coming from a Harvard anthropologist claiming to be educating the public for the public’s good it’s disgusting to hear such propaganda. That is only one of the so many lies you told. What a disgrace you are to your profession. Your colleagues committed to the truth should be calling for your ouster.
To name just a few animals that every anthropologist who studies human evolution knows we consumed. Lets start with…..every big game animal in Africa, Elephant, Giraffe, Rhino, Hippo, Water Buffalo, Wildebeest, etc. We hunted wild cattle both in Africa and In Eurasia and all the other big game animals throughout Eurasia as We exited Africa. We hunted Pleicostene animals Wooly Mammoths, Mastadons, Wild Camels, and numerous other now extinct big game species. In North America after crossing over the Bering Land Bridge, in addition to the now extinct Pleicostene animals, we hunted, Caribou, Bison, Deer, Elk, Moose, Bear, Pronghorn Sheep. We also hunted all the marine mammals wherever and whenever humans populated coastlines. Seals, Walrus, Whales, dolphins and porpoises. Thats just a few of the hundreds of large animals we hunted during our evolutionary history all the way to the present day. Every person in your field knows this, except you apparently. Small lean game. Yeah, right. Youre a liar, and a propagandist and you should not have a teaching position at an elite institution like Harvard, or any academic institution for that matter.
Talking fast and using big words does not change the fact that the hunter gatherer did not grow grains because they did not stay in one place long enough to do so. Also he would have starved to death waiting the full growing season to grow any thing. The fact that the people of, Egypt ate mostly grains and had very poor health as is evidenced by the condition of their mummies. I wish she would come out from behind that podium to see what her weight is. By the way would you rather be a wolf or a deer.
Except, the benefit of a low carbs diet and the damage grains and sugar do to our physiology has been proved, re-proved, forgotten, and rediscovered countless times. If Christina Warinner would be genuinely interested in the truth in matter of the ideal diet for humans, she would have come to the opposite conclusions. This talk is garbage exactly as it was garbage 7 years ago, and in fact, it is basically the same talk. So much for “continuous research of the truth”. I very rarely dislike a video on YouTube and this is one of those very rare times.
How many calories recommend for weight loss in paleo diet? % fat,protein,fiber recommended?
How did she debunk it exactly? The paleo diet is focused in the modern age, so of course it advocates using our modern foods. Also the paleo diet includes fruits and vegetables. Most of her arguments were just nonsensical, and had no basis in an actual paleo diet. Definitely not a takedown in any way.
Cheers for the Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about Elijaarqey Paleo Smasher (just google it)? It is an awesome one off guide for discovering some amazing paleo recipes without the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my old buddy Taylor at very last got excellent success with it.
Actually, I do not agree with her, i have autoimmune disease and this is the only diet helped me to be better, I lost weight I feel more healthy and I start work again and return back my life. before I was eating everything as they say little from everything but after I got this dieseas and doctors just gave me some pills and creams which can makes me feel better for sometime but as I stop take it again the pain return back and these pills has too bad side effects but as I start this diet I could stop pills and my body feels better, so I respect dr. Christina but I do not agree with her and all what she said has no approve, every day one research say YES and next day another research says NO so I start do not believe much in all these researches cuz most of it companies pay for it to sell more at the end.
Must be horrible to base your life, diet, and aspirations on Paleolithic myths. Sometimes it’s better not to know the science.
They cannot have eaten grains which by definition did not exist until agriculture bred them. Or they were not hunter gatherers this makes no sense. It is possible that the ancestor plants, like wild grass seeds may have made up a small proportion of their diet. But we know these plants are a tiny carb content next to the modern varieties.
There is no way primitive man subsisted on these to any large degree, because they do not provide enough calories, as either fat or carb to live on.
The whole premise makes no scientific sense from an archaeological point of view.
Otherwise she is talking about post agriculture. Not Paleo ancestors referred to on the diet.
They lived for many years eating this way and was just fine. Your body adapts just make sure you eat plenty of greens and your golden.
So dumb.The Paleo diet, caveman diet is a name and a guideline it’s not supposed to be historically accurate.It’s a great diet sad how dummies have to ruin it. She didn’t mention we have enlarged lungs,something we developed to chase down animal prey! Compare that to a cheeta that can run fast but only a short ways.We can jog along until the prey run out of steam a mile away as seen still in some African tribes. We also have found many, many animal bones in caves inhabited by humans. Ever see a cave drawing of broccoli?
Archaeologist*** not anthropologists. important distinction bc archaeologists usually have a more in-depth understanding of the physical, concrete, literally indisputable fossil record of early humans. Paleo-diet ppl are stupid for not listening to experts on this matter.
I am not here through evolution, I’m here through creation, any intelligent person can see that evolution is pure nonsense.
People of European origin essentially ate a paleo diet for at least tens of thousands of years so did much of the rest of the world
Fruits, vegetables and starches were very rare and only available for a small part of the year
I am paleo. It is not lacking in calcium and vitamin d. ����♀️ Red meat is very healthy for you. Paleo doesn’t include bacon. ����♀️ All the fat is very healthy. My cholesterol has never been better. This woman has no idea what she is talking about.
I enjoyed your lecture and learning. Looking for more of your lectures! Thank You
By comparing wild plants with their domesticated version, she’s actually making an argument against plant based diet. Most if not all the plants we eat today have been engineered and modified to be bigger, more palatable, with less seeds, more fruit, less toxins, more sugar etc. The only food that’s close to what our ancestors ate is grass fed meat.
Listen a paleo diet is eating like a caveman and caveman live to 20 and were extremely stupid
If you follow the Paleo (unprocessed meats, fruits, vegetables, eggs, nuts and seeds) you would not be overweight. You might be overweight because of the flours you are adding. Don’t promote these.
This is stunningly awesome. Warinner knows more about this subject and is better spoken than pretty much everyone I’ve ever seen who has opined on it, all combined, x10. And her presentation is absolutely fascinating, to boot.
In this lecture, the woman confirms that our ancestors were carnivores without herself realizing it.
This happens around 13.30 when she talks about the n-15 measurements. These show that our ancestors who lived on the African savanna had even higher levels than lions. She says that it is obvious that our ancestors could not have eaten more meat than a lion, and that the n-15 measurements must therefore be incorrect.
Here she shows that she does not understand what she is talking about. (This is not her field of study either.) The fact that our ancestors had n-15 levels higher than lions can easily be explained by the fact that they not only hunted herbivores, but also carnivores. This fits with what we know about how they hunted. They did not behave like other predators, but used weapons and animal traps. Then you can not only catch herbivores, but also carnivores. Recent and even more precise measurement methods have confirmed what the n-15 studies have shown.
This woman obviously has the best intentions, but in this lecture she manages to confirm exactly what she is trying to disprove.
All ancient cultures had good airports so that they could fly in fresh veggies and organic bananas so they could get their potassium.
25:15 The paper referred to (quite interesting) actually describes what seems to be grinding of cattail (Tifa) leaves, which are edible and rich in vitamins, not grains. Grains are present but that’s not what the cooks were interested in quite apparently.
Everything in this exposition so far seems to follow this pattern of misrepresenting the facts or throwing poisonous darts where they are not really deserved. I know from anthropological readings and documentaries that modern hunter-gatherers eat at the very least very generous amounts of meat if possible, meat or fish is their staple food, plants are complementary and they may be important at times, but it’s meat the core element of their diets. Grains are totally absent.
not a Paleo… but this stinks as much as that Paleo dessert
I’m on the so called Paleo diet not to lose weight but for reasons of allergies, to cow products and soy. So it just works for me. Kind of put everything together easy for some. We eat more veggie than anything though.
she debunks nothing, she actually proves the paleo diet is the right idea in its core xD
that not paleo diet. paleo diet is eat and drink everything just like the cavemen ate and drank anything.
The paleo diet is a fraud and a phony because primitive man ate tons of seeds, more than today. He also ate lots of insects, not featured in this diet.
The major body of scientific knowledge states that the closer you move to a Whole Food Plant Based Diet the healthier you will be. The longest lived studied populations in the world today are about 90% or more Plant Based and Peas Beans and Lentils are a food which they all eat in one way or another. The Paleo Diet is an easy sell to those who like to hear good news about their bad habits.
What plants and starch did northern Europeans eat even in summer there’s just about nothing to eat
“I recommend this guide:
hopy.best/paleo-guide/dMD
So grateful it exists.”
One word: LECTINS.
Plants are a secondary food source. Not optimal but acceptable during shortages of meat and fat.
Carbohydrates are not necessary in our survival fat and protein absolutely are.
If she says otherwise she doesn’t understand our physiology.
As for the microbiome it’s a moving target that no one understands. Everything she has to say in 2019 will be wrong in 2025.
For a better overview look into Dr. Paul Saladino.
I think the information Weston A. Price provided on the indigenous peoples (on all the continents) and there diets is far more reliable than looking for the pieces of vegetables and grains between the teeth of an ancient skeletal remains…
So…. basically she gave the same presentation word for word that she gave six years ago. Nothing new was said which means she hasn’t really done anything research wise.
She isn’t debunking the paleo diet. Cripes! She’s debunking fad paleo… which still has major benefits over the standard American diet.
Red meat for protine which fills you..but I tend to tweak..and have chicken and pork mabey..hinter gathers ate seeds n nuts and I use oat milk or soya as alternative for milk no processed foods all organic all natural even make my own paleo bars for energy so not strictly fill on paleo but close to the bar
Why would I eat animals that eat plants. I remove the middle man (animal) and eat plants directly. I know I’m gonna catch a rash of shit for this and this is purely an anecdotal experience, but I’ve been eating according to my blood type, Type A (non secretor) which calls for low acidic foods, plant based vegetarian and It has really changed my life. I also believe that saying one type diet is best for all is not true. I can and will say, only as a suggestion, to cut out dairy and all other industry processed food. You’re body will thank you.
The paleo diet is a fist sized piece of meat, any kind, and the rest of your plate vegetables, and fruits. So she’s not correctly describing the diet. The foods she’s recommending ARE what’s on the paleo diet.
So from the simple fact that we don’t produce our own vit c like all other herbivores, she can’t come to the conclusion that our optimal diet is one of whole plant foods? She is clueless when it comes to putting it all together in a simple way to help people who are confused.
I believe everything else she’s saying but, did she say we evolved from primates?
My mom is keto
I’m paleo because I can’t eat dairyit breaks me out and I have sweet cravingsI’d like to eat more than just berries for fruit (keto only allows berries as fruit sometimes)
this presentation was very informative and interesting as well very funny will have to share this with my dad he will find it interesting.
Unfortunately, what we have here are ‘half truths’
The actual truth is that Humans have evolved with TWO systems to see them through a year of FOUR seasons. We can use KETONES or GLUCOSE. We are in fact, ‘super adapted’ to totally natural cycles, and NOT FREE TRADE SOCIETIES USING REFRIGERATION where humans can eat the same macro literally all year round, poisoning themselves.
The Vegan Diet is a diet that is not sustainable for health. In winter/Sping, meat and fasting is far more appropriate, after gorging on CARBS all summer/autumn.
So Paleo guys think that the best diet for modern humans is the Paleo diet which is basically whatever Paleo man could get his hands on? As opposed to modern humans who have the luxury of eating foods that are actually healthy I.e. plants.
Funny how most of the comments are either vegans or carnivores, when this scientist said there isn’t one diet for everyone.
Michael Eades says there is a basis in the archeological record. He shows research using stable isotopes, and cites the Cassidy Study (1980 Nutritional Anthropology), and also extensive study of Egyptian mummies and their cardiovascular disease that comes from eating mostly wheat. I would like to see some side-by-side research that compares Warinner’s hypothesis with Eades. Seems like you can cherry-pick any research to match your bias.
”missing some vitamin D” well you can go outside or if there is no sun you can easily take vitamin D supplements
What utter nonsense the Picts lived in Iron Age northern Scotland go there live like them find 1500 calories per day with out meat fish making the bulk of the food
YES..
KEEP EATING THE POPTARTS…YESSS..DRINK THE COKE…WHATS THAT? YOU DEVELOPED TYPE 2 DIABETES?! WELL I HAVE JUST THE FIX FOR YOU, ALL I NEED IS A SMALL DOWN PAYMENT… OR CREDIT CARD NUMBER…WHATS THAT?! NOO NOOO DONT TRY TO FIX YOUR HEALTH WITH DIET…I KNOW BEST…
😉
let the peasant fools kill themselves with steak and milkshakes. let them die. leave the real food for the elite. these peasants have the right to kill themselves. let them do it. this world is overpopulated anyways
Just another phony advertising gimmick to get rich. It has little to do with what primitive man actually ate.
Julius Ceaser wrote that the German people were big from the meat and milk they consumed.
She’s a plant propagandist. To say that we are physiologically adapted to primarily plant consumption is wrong, wrong, wrong. What the hell did Europeans eat during the winters, or during the ice ages which could last for ten thousand years (Note: the most recent Younger Dryas only lasted 1,000 years). Don’t take my word for it. Look up collagen, nitrogen and paleolithic. All the evidence is there in the fossil record as to what humans ate it’s not a matter of opinion. Look up what caused human brains to expand in the first place (spoiler alert Omega 3 fatty acids from fish). Then human brains started to contract when agriculture was introduced. Look up when the great land mammals ceased to exist in each continent (spoiler alert it was contemporaneous with the arrival of humans in that continent)., I could go on but she’s not worth it.
meat is disgusting! I haven’t eaten it for 6 months and now I can actually smell what it smells like, Kind of like how you become accustomed to ur own body odor
plants sound way better than chicken shit and bovine titty milk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She talks about GMO fruit and vegetables like it’s an “okay” thing and that it is normal. The fruits and veggies that exist today are all mostly GMO and they are NOT good for our overall health.
She also talks about Mexico within the past 8k years as if they are an example of Paleo but that’s within our agriculture period and proves nothing about what we ate the previous 2 million years.
In fact, she showed no scientific data to prove any of her points. It all boiled down to opinion.
The cause for our current state of chronic diseases is indeed at least partly from agriculture. Round up is the most widely used pesticide and contains poison that causes cancer, autism, and Alzheimers. Also, all the GMO food is not natural so are our bodies really able to process them?
All this said, the bottom-line cause of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, IBO, PCOS, and other chronic disease is sugar! We consume way too many carbs. The average person consumes over 150 lbs of sugar per year and this was never the case prior to the early 1900’s when we consumed around 2-5 lbs per year. After around 1920 the population started to get heart attacks more and more as time went by until it became the #1 killer of today.
There is not one single nutrient that you can not obtain by consuming animal products, even vitamin C. Conversely, there’s many vitamins and minerals that either are not found in veggies or that can not be absorbed or properly absorbed due to the anti-nutrients in veggies. Examples are vitamin B-12, K, D, iron, and others. I eat both animal products and veggies, but mostly meat and dairy. That’s healthy diversity…:)
they clearly survived on “primal caveman TM” protein bars from whole foods. We know this because “my bodily intuition tells me so” based on “my ayurvedic body type”.
If you’re white you descended from native europeans who like the neanderthals they mixed with ate almost entirely meat and fish, because there was nothing else. It’s that simple. The plants that existed in europe back then were almost inedible and very low in calories. She is correct that there is not one paleo diet, and it’s MORE important to understand that a white person should not be looking to equatorial societies on how to eat, even though all native human societies ate animal-based diets even in Africa.
