Going Paleo doesn’t have to be confusing or mean eating the same things over and over. Every Sunday we’ll share a recipe for each day of the week to help you perfect your Paleo meal planning.
In his last public interview before retirement, Dr. Loren Cordain, joined by Trevor Connor and Dr. Mark J. Smith, debate the composition of the "real" Paleo Diet with Dr. Paul Saladino.
BY THE PALEO DIET TEAMIs it healthy to add salt? Dr. Cordain addresses recent research showing a "J-shaped" relationship between salt consumption and mortality.
BY LOREN CORDAIN, PH.D. AND TREVOR CONNOR, M.S.Dr. Mark J. Smith explains the importance of the sodium-potassium ratio to human health. The Western diet, at 1:1 or worse, is in complete discordance with the practices of our hunter-gatherer ancestors who ate between 1:5 and 1:10.
BY MARK J. SMITH, PH.D., CHIEF SCIENCE OFFICERDoes a low-salt diet cause insulin resistance? The limited research backing this claim has serious methodological flaws. Well-conducted studies tell a very different story: A high-salt diet causes insulin resistance. And potassium can reduce the impact.
BY TREVOR CONNOR, M.S.What are the physiological mechanisms underlying high-salt diets and cancer? In this article, Dr. Cordain takes a deep dive into the science of the relationship between salt and cancer.
BY LOREN CORDAIN, PH.D.You often hear about the effects of salt on blood pressure and heart disease. However, its negative effects go well beyond that. Dr. Cordain explains how a high-salt diet can also contribute to inflammation and autoimmune disease.
BY LOREN CORDAIN, PH.D.Dietary salt impairs the endothelial glycocalyx—a delicate and fragile structure lining the inside surface of all blood vessels. It could be the most important cardiovascular disease risk factor you've never heard about.
