Many of you who already follow The Paleo Diet know that peanuts aren't nuts, but peas! AKA legumes! As in, they contribute to leaky gut, contain anti nutrients and do NOT have a place in a healthy diet. It's all I can do not to say anything when I see a mom giving her kids […]
Read More ›After the recent article in the NY Times about Paleo living, it dawned on me one reason why some people might be put off from eating this way. The idea of an all or nothing approach might potentially dissuade those who otherwise might be inclined to give it a try! Certainly, I don't intent to […]
