Finally, the Paleo diet is beginning to get the recognition it deserves. The most annoying part of this video is the nutritionists. Do we really need it to be validated by nutritionists? Maybe to convince the public at large, but to me, it’s still annoying.
Travis is a CrossFit and Paleo diet junkie that lives in southern Louisiana. I run this blog to give you down-to-earth advice on achieving peak health through functional fitness and the Paleo diet. You can follow me on Twitter or contact me here.
I’m glad the nutritionists gave their blessing because that will help with the mass-appeal, but yeah, still annoying! I’m trying to convert my mom, so I asked her to watch the show; she really liked it but said “I noticed they were saying to eat lean meats, and not all that lard and bacon like you do.” Sigh… I’m glad that now she’s interested and wants to learn more; now I’ll just have to get her straight on healthy animal fats.
It’s nice to see paleo getting some good press for a change! Yeah, the nutritionists consulted were just more of the same old, but not condemning the lifestyle out of hand IS progress, after all!
Seeing the gym in action really is inspiring, though – I’d love to belong to a “tribe” like that! (hopefully someday when I’ve got an income again…*sigh*)
Thank you for commenting, much appreciated. You’re so right, this IS progress.
Instead of joining a tribe, have you thought of starting a tribe? Doesn’t have to be in a gym, just a group of like-minded friends who workout together. Heck, Google “body weight movements” and take your tribe to the park.
Oh yea, good luck on your year of living dangerously and exploring boundaries. I dig it!
I’ve tried the Paleo Diet for one month, and I do feel great. Do you have any data regarding the long-term (>15 years) consequences of the Palo-diet?
Thanks,

Jules,
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
I’m sure you’ll have your mom straight in no time. Once she feels the difference when she begins to eat a little more animal fat she’ll be hooked.
I’m digging your blog too, lots of excellent recipes and ideas.
All the best,
Travis

Hello,

Andrea,
Thank you for stopping by to comment. Unfortunetaly, I do not have information over the long-term.
I would be interested if you found some though!
All the best,
