Intro to Paleo

I knew I had a lot to learn, but it's incredible the science involved in the theory behind Paleo.

For those of you who haven't heard of it, or think of it as some new "fad", please do yourself a favour and read some of the articles online about it (see below).

If you ever wake up feeling more tired than when you went to bed (and you slept well!), or find yourself moody and jumpy (when it's not that time of the month), read the articles and see if what they say makes sense to you.

Don't worry, I'm not about to get all preachy at you, everyone is on their own journey and it can take awhile to get on the right path (hello, it's taken me 27 years!), all I'm saying is that reading some interesting articles cannot hurt because we all know that McDonald's is not a food group!

There's a terrific article here that explains exactly why some things are not paleo and the effect they have on our bodies: http://paleo.com.au/start-here-2/

Here's a great start, with a meal plan for a day of paleo eating available at: http://thepaleodiet.com/what-to-eat-on-the-paleo-diet/

And I love that Paleo Australia suggests which books to read to get you started.... http://paleoaustralia.com/paleo-books/

But the best resource I think, particularly for those who aren't sure what all the fuss is about is Are you Suffering From Adrenal Fatigue: http://paleo.com.au/2013/10/are-you-suffering-from-adrenal-fatigue/
