Professor Loren Cordain
is widely acknowledged as a leading expert on the diet of our
Paleolithic ancestors. In numerous publications in the world's best
scientific journals, he has documented the dramatic health benefits of
eating a diet consistent with human genetic evolution and our
ancestral, Paleolithic diet. Learn how a diet based on lean meats,
seafood, fresh fruits, and fresh vegetables can lead to ideal
body weight, optimum health, and peak athletic performance.
The Paleo Diet is a way of eating in
the modern age that best mimics diets of our hunter-gatherer ancestors
- combinations of lean meats, seafood, vegetables, fruits, and nuts. By
eating the foods that we are genetically adapted to eat, followers of
the Paleo Diet are naturally lean, have acne-free skin, improved
athletic performance, and are experiencing relief from numerous
metabolic-related and autoimmune diseases.
If you are ready to be lean and healthy, then look around and
subscribe to our newsletter. Learn how to lower your risk of
cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis,
arthritis, acne, gastrointestinal disease, autoimmune diseases, and
more. On this website, and in our books and newsletter, you’ll learn
the latest science and practical scientific tips that will lead to
optimum health and performance. This truly is the world’s healthiest
diet.

About
the Author: Dr. Cordain is the author of these three popular
books. The underlying rationale for each book is to consume a
contemporary diet that is consistent with the nutritional patterns of
our hunter gatherer ancestors. In a professional but
understandable manner, each book explains unique applications of the
nutritional science supporting the adoption of modern-day versions of
Paleolithic or hunter gatherer diets.
In The Paleo Diet, you’ll learn how to improve your
health and lose weight by simulating a Paleolithic diet from healthful
foods available at your local grocery store. Many people experience
health benefits within the first week to 10 days after adopting this
remarkable diet (see The Paleo Diet testimonials here). The Paleo Diet for Athletes demonstrates how four
fundamental dietary changes that you will make are ergogenic
(performance enhancing) for endurance athletes or for anyone simply
wanting to get in shape. The third book, The Dietary
Cure for Acne explains how the typical Western diet causes acne and
provides you with the information to eliminate acne in a matter of
weeks. Each of the books contains
numerous success stories from people from all walks of
life. Finally, this manner of eating is endorsed by many
distinguished international nutritional scientists, physicians and
anthropologists worldwide.
This concept represents the
"unified field theory" of nutrition that has until now been lacking.
The discipline of human nutrition previously had no orienting paradigm
to guide research and inquiry, and as such was an immature science. In
contrast, cosmology has the big bang theory, which orients all thought
regarding the origins of the universe, and geology has continental
drift and plate tectonics, which universally guide research into the
origins of earth's land mass. In biology, the fundamental, guiding
principle is Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection,
which provides a template for the creation of life on earth.
It has only been in the last two
decades that a few enlightened scientists have realized that this
principle also represents the basic biological principle which
determines the nutritional requirements of any organism - including
humans. Our genes were shaped by our ancestors' environment, including
our nutrtional requirements. Because what we eat today is so far
removed from the diet of our hunter-gatherer ancestors, a discordance
exists between our genes and our diet, and this factor represents the
underlying reason why we are so sick and overweight as a society.

Note to Readers:
In 2002 the publication of The
Paleo Diet kicked off a new awareness among thousands of readers
worldwide that the best way to examine nutrition is through an
evolutionary perspective. In both popular and scientific literature,
the terms Hunter-Gatherer diet, Ancestral diet, and Paleolithic diet
all refer to this way of looking at humanity’s natural diet.
