Benefits of the Paleo Diet
--via paleo-recipes.com

Long Term benefits

Typical western foods are low in minerals, vitamins and soluble fibre but high in fat and salt.

There is much evidence indicating that some of these dietary factors are important causes of common western disorders like heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

These are rare or almost non-existent in populations who have not hanged their diets much since paleolithic times.

Only westernized civilisations suffer from ageing being accompanied by increased weight and blood pressure. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, rickets and other common western diseases can probably to a large extent be prevented by diets resembling those of hunter-gatherers.read more...
