The Primal Blueprint
One of the more interesting diets/lifestyles I have stumbled upon is the Primal Diet. It is based off of a Paleolithic Diet. Basically it is returning to eating the way humans originally did, when they were hunter gatherers. The Paleolithic diet consists mainly of lean meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, roots, and nuts; and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, salt, refined sugar, and processed oils. It is based on the the theory that the human body developed and evolved to sustain itself on these types of foods. From what I have read up on it so far it seems to have good points going for it, and is something I am going to explore in more detail. I agree with a lot of what it based on, and have started to avoid all the processed foods I can. Mark Sisson of Marks Daily Apple has come up with the Primal Blueprint and is currently writing a book on it. He is also a former professional triathlete and runner and has his own supplemeent company Primal Nutrition which specializes in high quality high potency supplements. I am just starting out on his Damage Control Master Formula and will post more about that at another time. To read more on the Primal Blueprint you can read his blog and his Primal Blueprint page: What is the Primal Blueprint?
