- 17. Adequacy: ThePaleolithic Diet Supports the intake of adequate amounts of the essential nutrients, fiber, carbohydrates included in the wide variety of raw fruits and vegetables, as well as meats and oils. Balance: This diet stresses balance between oils and meats and fruits and vegetables that are allowed. The Paleo Diet also supports portion sizes that balance energy intake with physical exercise; though it does not limit the variety of foods at an individual’s disposal. Calorically Sounds: With the Paleolithic Diet, one may eat until one is full and there is no need whatsoever to feel as if you are starving yourself for lack of food. The portions are yours to command provided you balance each within the list of healthy foods recommended. Nutrient Density: The Paleolithic Diet encourages foods that are rich in both the essential and nonessential vitamins and minerals. As long as a person balances and varies the foods well, they should have no problem whatsoever in achieving their daily needs. Variety: There is only one limitation to a traditional “Caveman Diet” and that is that the diet does not encourage dairy products or grains or sugars. However, there are really no other foods that are discouraged in the diet provided they meet the goals set by the individual.
- 18. Expense: Theonly true expense involved in maintain The Paleo Diet is the cost of the fresh fruits and vegetables as well as the organic foods if you choose to do so. (Truly when you weigh the money issues with the possible benefits of healthy eating, the expense really does not seem great at all.) Time: The Paleolithic Diet does require some preparation where meals are concerned. If one were to want to give one’s family a true taste of the “Caveman” experience, it would take some needed time to prepare a true masterpiece. But, if a person simply wanted to improve their health with the fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts and meats this diet requires, the only preparation would be to slice the vegetables, make a pot of soup of plan for the whole week. Based on Scientific Support: The Paleolithic Diet is also excellent for those who wish to lower their blood pressure or for diabetics who are looking for a variety of foods that do not increase the load placed on their pancreas and that they may consume whether they require insulin or not. The Paleolithic Diet has something for everyone regardless of circumstances. Other: This diet, is a very healthy diet. It does not limit on foods. It just specifies to eat a variety, and with a healthy balance of all natural foods rather than store acquired ready to eat meals with the unhealthy additives.
