Hippocrates, the Greek physician (460 BC – 377 BC), said it best. Think about what you're putting in your body, every single time you eat, and think about what what that food, or NON food is going to do to your body! Will it help it? Or harm it? If you know that it's fresh/healthy/PALEO/veg, […]
Read More ›One of the most common issues that clients have when new to eating Paleo is the tendency to eat too much fruit. To clarify, I just recently did a post on eating fruit, and I am NOT of the school of thought that it is something to be avoided. Read the post for more, but the bottom […]
Read More ›A reader brought this product to my attention recently.

Read More ›I do get quite a bit of questions about exactly what I eat on those days when I'm training long. A 5k swim, followed by a 5:00 ride and a 1:00 brick are not exactly workouts you'd want to go into empty! While I've written posts including sample days of what I eat on days […]
Read More ›Based on a menu offering from a restaurant I visited recently that was NOT paleo, this version that I made up IS! While it looked great on the menu, after a little inquiry to the server, I learned that the Roasted Sprouts dish was prepared with butter, soy sauce and even a little bit of […]
Read More ›This recipe is a perfect one to illustrate the idea that you do NOT need to thicken sauces, a topic which I'm frequently asked about.
