I’ve seen a lot of bad food choices in many a market, ut today may be one of the worst of all. I saw a ready-to-bake, frozen, log-shaped concoction of cookie dog for the dog. Picture those horrendous Pillsbury or Nestle rolls of dough that you can purchase and all that needs to be […]
Read More ›No, your eyes are not deceiving you. It is, indeed, possible to eat too much of my favorite, leafy green. As much as I hate to admit it, there can be too much of a good thing. What’s the issue? If we only ever eat one type of veg, or fruit or protein, for that […]

(We’ll set aside the first question- what are you eating (that’s not likely Paleo) that’s making you feel it’s necessary to take something to help you digest in the first place…) When True Paleo eating becomes part and parcel of your normal regime, proper digestion should […]
