While researching for a better more natural diet I came across 3 things, the raw diet (which is mostly vegan, and i dont like much), the paleo diet and the weston price diet.
I am not looking for a fad popular lame diet, I am lookinh for a diet guide or a philosophy.
The Price diet is all about the uncivilized natives and what they ate andhow that resulted in better teeth, better formed faces and even better morals/psychological effects.
I read a lot about the weston price diet and it makes sense: grass-fed beef, animal fat, fermented cod liver oil, raw milk, veggies, eggs, butter, fermented foods, sourdough bread ..
Yet, I like to avoid grains, wheat and gluten and beans.. So I wonder if the Paleo diet has these. Did the cave(wo)man use corn, tomatoes, wheat or did they eat berries and seeds and roots and meat only?
As you can tell I dont know much about paleo and keep finding conflicting info online. I am here today asking how is the Paleo diet different from the Weston Price diet?
Where on curezone can I find an article summarizing the paloe diet? paleo blog articles? where is a good place to start?
If you can compare the Price diet vs. Paleo for me please do so. It'd be helpful
Finally, do you think the paleo people also followed the "warrior diet" ? as per the nature of their lifestyle?
I was watching my cat eating, she eats small amounts many times during the day, it got me to wonder if humans (animals) are also supposed to be eating small quantities often rather than 3 meals. Does paleo mention frequency of eating? is paleo also warrior diet?
I'd recommend you read The Paleo Diet book (from the library, maybe?) to get a grasp of the whole concept. Or, at least, just google "paleo blog" and you will find several that have articles and recipes. My general understanding is that Paleo and Weston A Price have a lot of overlap, but Paleo just may be slightly more restrictive, in that instead of eating fermented whole grains you just wouldn't eat grains, for example.
The difference between a LOT of diets is actually philosophical, such as the concept of how the diet got started. So, as you mentioned, one is based on actual traditional diets observed around the globe of healthy peoples, another is of what the "paleo man" would have eaten.
I am not that familiar with the paleo diet, myself. I have a friend who has been doing the Paleo diet for many months now, with fabulous results. I know he makes a faux bread with flax seeds, eats wine and very dark chocolate in small amounts for "dessert" and otherwise, he pretty much just eats whole foods such as meats, certain fruits and veggies, good fats such as coconut oil, and dairy in moderation -- in various combinations.
Paleo and Weston A Price are both pretty good. Perhaps no grains is the best way to go. However, I'm sure people would also say that IF you are going to eat grains, the the Weston A Price is the superior way to ordinary grain eating. And some of this breaks down to what you are comfortable doing or willing to do.
