The "Paleo Diet" way of eating takes its cues from our paleolithic, pre-agricultural past. Modeled on a hunter-gatherer diet, basically it avoids grains, dairy, processed foods, and sugar, focusing on fruit, vegetables and meat. As a failed vegan with a minor degree in anthropology this does appeal to my imagination. "Yeah, Pass the Mammoth Steaks!" In fact a number of my friends have improved their health by avoiding gluten and dairy. The wisdom of avoiding highly processed and sugary foods almost goes without saying.
But its not just a food philosophy. Check out this Paleo style workout. I admit it hurts my ankles just to watch this but I do appreciate the attitude. Walking barefoot in sand or swimming in a forest pond might be a good start.
