Paleo Diet

The basic principle of the paleo diet is that if the cavemen didn't eat it, you shouldn't either. You won't eat refined sugar, dairy, legumes, or grains on the paleo diet because they predate the agricultural revolution. Instead, fill up on the fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, and poultry that your Paleolithic predecessors ate.

The concept is to prevent or treat "diseases of civilization" like Type 2 diabetes and heart disease by avoiding modern foods like highly processed carbs and dairy. With this diet, you might also reduce your weight Your personal objectives and the program you've chosen will determine what and how much you consume. The U.S. News experts give the high-protein diet a bad rating because they believe it is too restricted to be healthful or sustainable.
