Hi Everyone,
So I was recently diagnosed with a bunch of food intolerances including gluten, dairy, soy, white potatoes, and several more. I was talking to a friend about it and she suggested that it might be best for me to look into the Paleo Lifestyle. I Googled it and there are a million websites. Does anyone have favorites they suggest that I can narrow this thing down. I need to learn about it starting with the basics. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Amy

Actually suggest you start with a book so that you can digest the full basic understand.
My number one suggestion to you: http://primalblueprint.com/products/The-Primal-Blueprint:-Updated-and-Expanded-(Paperback-Edition).html0 -
I really liked the book "It Starts with Food" written by the folks at whole9life.com.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1936608898/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=whole9-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1936608898
They have apretty active forum on their site as well.
The book has explanations and details without the "caveman" stuff. Their program is a 30 day strict paleo program with discussion of reintroduction of certain foods at the end to determine how YOUR body reacts to different food types.0 -

Not sure if your issue has been fully investigated, but multiple food intolerances can indicate leaky gut syndrome. I tested off the charts for casein & dairy, with medium results for a few other things. Since healing my gut I have found that I can eat some dairy without any symptoms (I'm primal/paleo).
