Key Rules to Follow
Focus on Whole, Unprocessed Foods
The foundation of the Paleolithic diet is whole, unprocessed foods. This includes fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins such as meat, fish, and eggs, nuts and seeds, and healthy fats such as avocado and coconut oil. These foods are rich in nutrients and can help promote optimal health.
Eliminate Processed Foods
In order to follow the Paleolithic diet, it’s important to eliminate or greatly reduce your intake of processed foods. This includes foods that are high in refined sugar, refined grains, and artificial ingredients. Processed foods are often low in nutrients and can contribute to inflammation and chronic disease.
Choose High-Quality Animal Products
Animal products are an important part of the Paleolithic diet, but it’s important to choose high-quality, pasture-raised, and grass-fed options. These animal products are often higher in omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients, and are free from antibiotics and other harmful additives.
Incorporate Fermented Foods
Fermented foods are rich in beneficial bacteria and can help to support a healthy gut microbiome. This includes foods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, fermented vegetables (carrots, beets, radishes) and kombucha. By incorporating these foods into your diet, you can support your digestive health and overall well-being.
Experiment with New Foods and Recipes
One of the benefits of the Paleolithic diet is that it encourages experimentation with new foods and recipes. There are many delicious and nutritious recipes available that are based on whole, unprocessed foods, such as cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles. By trying new foods and recipes, you can keep your diet interesting and enjoyable.
Listen to Your Body
As with any dietary approach, it’s important to listen to your body and make adjustments as needed. If you find that certain foods don’t agree with you or if you experience symptoms such as bloating, gas, or fatigue, it may be helpful to eliminate these foods from your diet.
