Why You Should Opt for Grass-Fed Beef
A fan of The Paleo Diet lifestyle recently sent our team the following question: Where can I find research that will show how the properties of grain accumulate in the beef that we eat, that has been feed grains and soy? Or is it that the beef just has a lower omega 3 ratio? Does that make grass feed beef healthier to eat? Grass- vs. grain-fed beef has been the subject of considerable debate in the Paleo community ever since the recent growth of the ancestral-based health movement1. Issues surrounding the debate have been centered on health ramifications,…
Memorial Day Paleo Grilling Marinades
With Memorial Day just around the corner, it’s time to start planning your menu. What better way to prepare a Paleo-approved feast than to cook your meats over an open flame, just like our Paleolithic ancestors may have done? While a simple, grass-fed rib eye works perfectly, it’s fun, tasty and healthy to add some zest by way of marinades, too. Commercially available preparations that are suitable to a Paleo, clean-living approach are few and far between. Most are laden with corn syrup, stabilizer gums and artificial sweeteners, coloring and flavorings. Another common offender found in bottled marinades is soy. High…
Red Meat, Insulin Sensitivity, and Sage Infused Mushroom Paleo Burgers
Does red meat consumption increase your risk for developing type-2 diabetes? Some epidemiologic studies have suggested this much, while also linking increased dairy consumption with decreased type-2 diabetes risk.1 Insulin sensitivity is the proposed mechanism driving these associations. People with low insulin sensitivity, also known as being insulin resistant, require greater amounts of insulin from the pancreas to stabilize blood glucose levels. Over time, insulin resistance promotes type-2 diabetes as the pancreas fails to satisfy the body’s insulin requirements. This causes excess glucose to build up in the bloodstream, thereby promoting type-2 diabetes. Previously published epidemiological studies have led to…

Tongue: A Hunter Gatherer Delicacy
Back in the summer of 1969 as a strapping, young Forest Service firefighter based out of Markleeville California, I had the pleasure to dine in the world famous Basque establishment, The Overland Hotel, Bar and Restaurant, located in Gardnerville, Nevada. Unfortunately I discovered the Overland has just recently closed its doors. Nevertheless, my memories of a singular summertime dinner with my firefighting buddies at the Overland linger to this day. For those of you who have never visited a western Basque restaurant, you are in for a surprise. Meals are generally served family-style, where patrons sit at communal tables and…
Red Meat and The Paleo Diet: How Often and What Type?
Who doesn’t like a nice, rare filet mignon for dinner? Or some flank steak, marinated in cumin, orange, lime and garlic, sautéed with peppers and onions and served with Bibb Lettuce warps and guacamole to create Paleo Fajitas? It’s too bad we can’t eat this type of food that often. Or can we? We’ve all heard “Don’t eat red meat more than once per week” and “Always choose the leanest cuts of meat” from not only our doctors, but also from the media. Unfortunately, the misconception that eating red meat, in and of itself, can cause certain types of cancers,…
