paleo diet

This is incredibly interesting, and it is funny that modern man feels the need to have to study and write this information on the internet. For millions and scwillions of years humans have lived on this planet, and for only 56 years have we had McDonalds.

Humans living naturally, foraging and hunting, would of course only eat what they could find. They would die of disease (viruses etc.) or accidental death, but not of ‘man made’ killers such as death linked to being fat, smoking, and other bad habits modern man has picked up.

Take a peak at the ‘Paleo diet’.

I think this links up very well with a programme I watched the other night called “Fast Food Baby”. It was about parents who feed their kids junk food, some as young as two or three and had Only eaten junk. It was quite disgusting at times seeing a three year old kid wolfing down a plate of greasy chips, sometimes a plateful bigger than I would have!

One of the kids, Cuba, can’t be much over 18 months old, consumes 3200 calories a day. He’s given up to 6 cans of cola per day.

One of the mothers was only 19 and had had a Heart Attack. Scary. The good news was that by the end of the show, all of them had changed their ways (for the meantime anyway), and the son of the 19 year old said he preferred her homemade pizza to takeaway – yay!
