Give Your Body What It Needs
We are designed to primarily ingest plant matter, with animal matter at an essential, secondary position. This matter includes: fruit, salads, vegetables, roots and tubers, mushrooms, nuts, insects, shellfish, frogs, turtles, snakes, birds, eggs as well as other large animals. These food sources were key components of our ancestral dietary strategy.
Our modern environment is composed of conditions that promote the ingestion of food sources that were not part of the ancestral dietary strategy. This includes grains, legumes, certain roots and tubers as well as milk and dairy. Chronic ingestion of these food sources leads to a decline in our health and wellbeing. We can restore optimal ingestion via implementation of Paleolithic nutrition principles.
Paleolithic nutrition involves ingesting food sources that are appropriate for our design. It is based on the ancestral dietary strategy, which involved the ingestion of Pleistocene sources of plant and animal matter in particular proportions and combinations. The outcome of implementing Paleolithic nutrition principles is optimal digestion.
