What is the Paleo Diet?
The Paleo diet is based on foods similar to what might have been eaten during the Paleolithic era, dating from approximately 2.5 million to 10,000 years ago. It focuses on whole foods that were available to our hunter-gatherer ancestors, eliminating processed foods, grains, legumes, and dairy.
