“I take Vitamin D for bone density, along with Strontium and Vitamin K. Then, I use a topical yam cream to prevent menopausal side effects. Also, I take a food-base multi vitamin and Vitamin B for energy since I no longer eat bread. I use L Tryptophan to help me fall asleep and then I […]
Read More ›You walk into the restaurant, after having done the research online and making sure there were some Paleo options. You even went as far as to call ahead and make sure the items you’re interested in are confirmed soy-, gluten- and dairy- free. But then…it happens. You see, in small letters, that the filet mignon […]
Read More ›For me, the diagnosis certainly was, years ago, before I found Paleo in 2005, and when I was suffering on a daily basis from excruciating abdominal pain and GI issues, despite eating what I thought was a healthy diet. I was reminded of this today when, amongst all the other junk email I see in […]
Read More ›“What type of protein powder can I use” has got to be, hands down, one of the most commonly asked questions I receive from clients, blog readers and twitter followers alike.

Read More ›Remember ‘nothing in a wrapper’? Most types have so many additives, I wouldn’t recommend touching them with a ten foot pole. Even if you’re not remotely Paleo, the mere fact that most chewing gums are little bursts of chemicals and don’t have any nutritional value, I can’t say there’s really any good reason to chew […]
Read More ›Hmmm.. probably not, but that doesn’t mean we should follow suit in this instance! We think about Paleo eating and Paleo moving, but how many of us think about Paleo bathing? In other words, are the products we use on our hair and bodies Paleo? Given my penchant for a nice Decleor facial and […]
Read More ›I had food poisoning about a month ago. It was awful, fast acting and after vomiting profusely several hours after I ate some chicken that I knew afterwards wasn’t quite right, I was more or less out of commission for over 24 hours. The next day was spend lying on the coach and taking my […]
