About This Diet
Paleo Diet Basics
The Paleo diet mimics what our Palaeolithic ancestors ate before agriculture. It focuses on whole, unprocessed foods that could have been hunted or gathered — meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds — while eliminating grains, legumes, dairy, and refined sugars.
Key Principles
- No grains (wheat, rice, oats, corn, barley)
- No legumes (beans, peanuts, lentils, chickpeas)
- No dairy (some strict Paleo allows ghee)
- No refined sugars or processed foods
