When I first started eating Paleo, my budget wasn’t much of a concern. I had a really good job at the time and no serious financial concerns. I would drive down to my local, whole animal butchery, order any cut of meat I wanted, a few sausages, duck, and even

My Completely Unscientific Method on How to Break Bad Food Habits Based on Personal Experience, Anecdotal Evidence, and Other Stuff I Believe Is Probably True (skip ahead to read the 10 ways you can break the sugar and carb habit) You’re not alone when it comes to the unrelenting primal

If you’ve been in the Paleo or ancestral community for some time now, you’ve probably heard of Allan Savory of the Savory Institute. Self-described as a “Zimbabwean wildlife biologist-farmer,” he claims to have figured out a way to manage livestock that is non-destructive and actually regenerative to the land. Decades

Aussie Damon Gameau goes from eating a healthy, no-sugar diet, to a 60-day sugar binge experiment. The average Aussie consumes 40 tsp. of sugar per day (yes, 40), so that was Damon’s goal. He could only eat “hidden” sugars found in foods that most people would find harmless or even healthy in

There are pros and cons to how the filmmakers present their Paleo information, as there are with any documentary film. This is especially true when it comes to documentaries about food.
