Paleo Lifestyle Resources

    I have always been a fan of lower carbohydrate-higher protein based diets.  The Atkins'/Ketogenic diet was my first venture away from the traditional high carb/low fat that is to this day still pushed by the food industry and traditional medicine.  Early in my chiropractic career, I found that my patients responded better to the higher protein/lower carbohydrate diets.  Not just from a obesity standpoint  but also from a chronic disease standpoint; patients with heart disease, diabetes and auto immune conditions greatly improved if not resolved their conditions all together.
   About three years ago, I was exposed to the Paleo Diet; originally developed by Loren Cordain, PhD.   I found his ground breaking book, The Paleo Diet to be a nice change of pace to the Atkins' diet.  Many of my patients felt too deprived while on Atkins'/Ketogenic.  Since that time, I recommend the Paleo Diet, a.k.a. Paleo Lifestyle to all of my patients.
    In my office, I routinely tell my patients to check out website after website about the Paleo Lifestyle. To avoid confusion and repeating myself, I decided to create a list of all the websites/resources for my patients that I routinely recommend.  These sites offer a wealth of information regarding the dos and don't s, the science behind Paleo and thousands of wonderful recipes to try.
