Fad diet, completely unnecessary, any diet that has you cutting out entire food groups is a bad idea...0

Do what you're comfortable with. It isn't necessary, but if you feel "healthier" doing it, then go ahead. It will probably be too difficult to sustain though and there really isn't much solid evidence that it will improve your health.0

Huge pain in butt for no extra results over a moderate calorie restriction on a balanced diet.0

More like there isn't ANY solid evidence that it will improve your health any more than a calorie deficit with proper macronutrient intakes0 -

I'll give a little leeway since I really haven't done any real research on it.0 -

Agreed - I'd suggest that you have a look at Mark's Daily Apple to see if it would fit your lifestyle -

Not paleo.0 -
I'm not sure why the hate....
Paleo is not a "fad" diet. It is based around what humans have been eating for the longest amount of time. The basics are you eat meat and fish, veggies, nuts and seeds, fruit in moderation, no grains or dairy. As always it is good to do research on your own and experiment to determine what you want and how you want to live your life. I feel my absolute best when I follow strict paleo, to each his own though. I would not knock it just because idiots say it's a fad or you need lots of time. Anything worth doing requires effort and time. I encourage you to at least give it a shot and see how you like it, it really isn't much different from "clean" eating. Good luck!0 -

Based on what though scat testing? Humans in Africa ate differently than humans in Europe or humans in Asia. How come tubers like potatoes are outlawed in paleo most primitive cultures eat tons of tubers and starch vegetables and legumes? Neolithic European and Eurasian steppes man started drinking milk and developed lactose tolerance. 5000 year old Iceman Otzii had a bag full of grains and starches with his body found in the Alps.
I don't think it's justified to call anyone an idiot who questions a diet which has only recent trends and there is no real evidence it is beneficial.0 -
I've watched that video before, she pretty much backs up the paleo diet...

Lol. You make it sound like "it really isn't much different from clean eating" is supposed to be a good thing. Clean eating is also ridiculous. The rationale behind paleo is so screwed up and convoluted it's insane. In the end, eat whatever you want, but understand that there is no solid science behind paleo whatsoever and there are absolutely zero health benefits associated with paleo that have been scientifically tested. Any health benefit from paleo comes from the caloric deficit and the macronutrient intakes which can be easily achieved without cutting out entire food groups and following ridiculous rules...0 -

So you are telling me that a pizza has the same nutrition as meats and veggies? A sub sandwich is just as "healthy" as fruits or nuts? A cookie the same as grass fed beef? You're ridiculous if you think clean eating is not anymore healthier for you than IIFYM.....0 -

Okay it is "primal" rather than "paleo" . If you could please enlighten me as to the difference(s) I would appreciate it.
I'm not being sarcastic I would like to know that's all..0 -

The terms are interchangeable in the dietary sense.0 -

Thank you. I was truly confused for a minute and wondered whether it was just a question of semantics.0
