Carbohydrate Is a macro nutrient that is a must for the human body But they weren't chugging down 40g of it in one coke which was the start of their meal. Proportions, you must put it in perspective. |

Complex carbohydrates are encouraged as it theoretically takes your body longer to release said carbs so you aren't overloading your body with them which means less fat storage. Even simple carbs are encouraged if you're highly active as your body not only wants them but needs them. There is a low dosage ketogenic diet but even those have some (albeit small amount) carbs and it's not practically sustainable in the long run. |

To stimulate ketosis they would limit to 20g per day, but most people find their happy point between 20 and 100g per day. |

It strikes me that eating foods that aren't processed is a good thing... Doesn't paleo revolve around veggies, fruit, and meat? That sounds like it would be an optimal diet. Refined carbohydrates are what fuck people up nowadays. There's multiple studies coming out that it isn't red meat that causes major oxidation/plaque in the arteries, but sugars. Not to mention diabetes.
Alas I haven't gotten to the point of being disciplined enough to maintain a paleo diet. Also, it doesn't strike me as a conventional "diet" per say but more of a nutritional outlook. The food industries make their big money selling processed garbage to people and have spent billions convincing the public that it's good for them. Of course there's a lot of people who buy into and shun anything different. |

Because fuck being hungry. Eat what is available. These silly fad diets are doing people more harm than good. Everyone is looking for a quick fix to being fat. Just stop being a dumbass. Actually, Paleo and Atkins are not "fads" and are based on a heck of a lot more nutritional research than anything else out there, including anything that has every been pushed on us by the FDA. If you think eating Paleo for the rest of your life is supposed to be some kind of "quick fix" you have missed the point. Also, in regard to carbs, just about every animal on the planet eats a low carb, high fat diet. |

And it is most certainly possible to live without carbs. Eskimos and other northern tribes live for decades with practically zero carbs. We've known this for a hundred years. Tribes in Africa eat nothing but meat their entire lives. Eat what you want, but stop making statements that are proven to be false. |

I follow a pseudo paleo diet and its helped me lose some weight without being miserable. The best part is eating meat keeps you full longer unlike a bag of chips or Chinese food. Nobody sticks to a diet forever, so it becomes a "fad". It does help some people learn about what they put in their trash hole and how to change their lifestyle to a healthier one. I'm guessing either OP is a fatass tired of hearing about it or has a naturally high metabolism.

I truly loved the conclusion of this study right here: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/12/17/bad-carbs-may-not-be-that-bad/?intcmp=obmod_ffo&intcmp=obnetwork No health benefits in low glycemic index carbs vs high GI carbs. So the conclusion isn't that carbs in general are *bad* and should be restricted. The conclusion is that the high GI carbs must not be so bad after all.

It's probably a safe bet they ate whatever they could get their hands on and were likely scavengers. Plant matter was probably the biggest part of their diet with the lucky but rare meat score. Their main meat source would have typically been equivalent to week old roadkill. Basing a modern diet on what we think a bunch of primitive primates were eating seems stupid. Kinda falls into the "fuck science " type of thinking. It is the exact opposite of "fuck science". |

It's hard to make money selling books and other products if all you have to give is eat less and exercise more. Fucking nailed it. I have never and will never pay any fucking attention to these fad diets. Eat what you want in moderation and exercise regularly. Everything else is mindgames to get you to eat moderately. Until blood work proves that statement wrong. Science and all. Could you be less cryptic and explain what the hell you mean?Try it, and compare. I don't know why so many people that care so much about their health don't at least give it a try. We all wouldn't ignore posters raving about some awesome batteries or light bulbs, but when it comes to health we just seem to dig in and hold the line. Trying it isn't going to kill you. |

I don't want to. I'm in fairly good shape, particularly for my age, in excellent health with perfect blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar and I have no desire to change my diet. I enjoy what I eat and I have no desire to restrict myself to certain foods. |

I truly loved the conclusion of this study right here: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/12/17/bad-carbs-may-not-be-that-bad/?intcmp=obmod_ffo&intcmp=obnetwork No health benefits in low glycemic index carbs vs high GI carbs. So the conclusion isn't that carbs in general are *bad* and should be restricted. The conclusion is that the high GI carbs must not be so bad after all. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Stupid fad. Same as gluten-free Ebola. Now they find that Paleo actually had a lot more 'carbs'. Define "a lot more"
Carbohydrate Is a macro nutrient that is a must for the human body But they weren't chugging down 40g of it in one coke which was the start of their meal. Proportions, you must put it in perspective. Yeah, but doesn't Paleo ban ALL carbs? Even complex? We're not just talking Cokes and Twinkies here. Turns out the whole "complex vs simple" carbs is practically meaningless. The body breaks up the chains of "complex" carbs very quickly, and the insulin spike is almost the same.

Yeah because eating a snickers is just as healthy as eating broccoli. |

4 pounds of meat A DAY would be better than 4 pounds of cheetos a day. 5 pounds of meat a day is the diet of a Massai warrior. If you start looking like a Massai warrior naked, you're gonna do well on your dating career. Quote HistoryQuoted:

The paleo diet is good for you. Thus, arfcom hates it. Tell me exactly what isn't good for you when taken in a reasonable quantity. If I eat 4 pounds of red meat each meal, is that good for me? 4 pounds of meat A DAY would be better than 4 pounds of cheetos a day. 5 pounds of meat a day is the diet of a Massai warrior. If you start looking like a Massai warrior naked, you're gonna do well on your dating career. You need to do some reading about the East African Cattle Complex. Not much meat in the diet but lots of milk and milk products .... and grains! |

Paleo and other low carb diets are a great way to lose fat, as long as you stay below maintenance.
Of course fat asses will disagree. |

Cavemen had a 29 year lifespan. Definitely worthy of emulation.
