This review summarises the evidence and clinical application of this diet in various disorders. An empiric vegan variant of it has been Iprovided, keeping in mind vegan food habits. Review of the literature: different types of Palaeolithic diets in vogue include the 80/20, the autoimmune, the lacto, the Palaeolithic vegan and the Palaeolithic ketogenic. We have developed an Indian variant of the Palaeolithic vegan diet, which excludes all animal-based foods. The Palaeolithic diet typically has low carbohydrate and lean protein of 30–35% daily caloric intake in addition to a fibre diet from non-cereal, plant-based sources, up to 45–100 g daily. In different observational studies, beneficial effects on metabolic syndrome, blood pressure, glucose tolerance, insulin secretion, lipid profiles and cardiovascular risk factors have been documented with the Palaeolithic diet. Short-term randomised controlled trials have documented weight loss, and improved glycaemia and adipo-cytokine profiles.

This has Available online 18 June 2013 been accelerated by the maturation of different techniques, which have produced a plethora of new information. However, this proliferation of data has led to confusing and contradictory results. Furthermore, most of the ecological dietary studies have been carried out on specimens drawn from different time periods and regions, almost exclusively those characterized by cold, open environmental conditions. Subsistence models based on these fragmentary data have been applied to Neanderthals living in a variety of different regions and environments, even though their dietary strategies may have been as variable as regions they inhabited. In this paper we integrate different dietary approaches (studies of the zooarchaeology, stable isotopes and plant remains) from the central and southeastern Mediterranean coast of Iberia in order to develop a broader and more complex picture of Neanderthal diet in different Mediterranean environmental conditions.

  • The Paleo Diet Anna Jones, Phd Rachel E
    Produced by: Nutrition and Health Info Sheet: Taylor Berggren, MS Rachael Marchand, BS Adrien Barrios, BS Courtney Mitchener, BS The Paleo Diet Anna Jones, PhD Rachel E. Scherr, PhD Sheri Zidenberg-Cherr, PhD For Health Professionals Center for Nutrition in Schools Department of Nutrition University of California, Davis 2018 What is the Paleo Diet? The Paleo diet, also referred to as the Paleolithic diet, emphasizes an increased consumption of lean meat, fish, shellfish, fruit, vegetables, eggs, nuts, and seeds while excluding grains, legumes, cereals, dairy, processed foods, refined sugars and added salt.1 The Paleo diet has gained popularity all over the world, and in 2014, it was the most searched diet-related term via Google.2 This diet pattern finds its roots in our human Paleolithic ancestors who consumed foods available from their environments through hunting, fishing, and gathering. Since humans followed hunter-gatherer lifestyles for many thousands of years, the advocates of the Paleo diet claim the human body became especially well adapted to this diet.3 However, the composition of the ancient Paleolithic diet varied greatly based on geographic region.2 Critics of the contemporary Western diet postulate that the rise in chronic illnesses such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, is due to the influx of processed, refined, and sodium-heavy foods made widely available to the public, and that the nutritional quality of an ancestor-based diet may have therapeutic value in the treatment of chronic disease.3,4

  • The Gluten-Free Diet
    The Gluten-Free Diet Gluten is a protein particle found in all forms of wheat, barley and rye. Gluten is also found in wheat additives, the most common additive used in American food products. Those on a gluten-free diet forgo all products containing wheat, barley, rye, their various derivatives, and additives containing these ingredients. Those who are gluten-free embrace a diet filled with fruits, vegetables, meats, beans, and legumes. Nuts and most dairy products are naturally gluten-free, and safe for individuals who do not have allergies to these respective food groups. There are a variety of alternatives that naturally DO NOT contain gluten and thus can be consumed by those on a gluten-free diet. These include: Almond meal flour Corn Potatoes Sorghum flour Amaranth Cornstarch Potato flour Soy flour Buckwheat Guar Gum Quinoa White rice flour Coconut flour Pea flour Rice The gluten- free diet has quickly become one the fastest growing nutritional movements in America, gaining popularity for its health and therapeutic benefits. The gluten-free diet is safe, and can be healthy for everyone. It may also hold the key to better health, alleviating symptoms such as: Ataxia Autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto’s, Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis) Fatigue Gastrointestinal distress (diarrhea, constipation, gas, bloating, reflux) Headaches (including migraines) Infertility Insomnia Joint/muscle pain (often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia) Lactose intolerance Mood disorders (depression, bipolar, “fuzzy head,” schizophrenia) Seizures Respiratory distress (including asthma) Skin disorders (often misdiagnosed as eczema) Weight gain or weight loss Millions of people have celiac disease or some form of intolerance or sensitivity to gluten, and most live unaware and undiagnosed.

Neuhouser, PhD, RD Department of Epidemiology Background: Many consumers follow food restrictions, sometimes based on unregulated sources of information. The goal of this study was to evaluate the eating perceptions of university students who are following a restrictive diet. Methods: The Food and Health survey was a cross-sectional study of students of the University of Washington (UW). Inclusion criteria were being a non-pregnant student older than 18 years and following a diet described by at least one of the following characteristics: gluten-free, dairy-free, genetically modified organisms-free, Paleolithic or other. The survey included questions on socio-demographics, diet restrictions, food- and health-related knowledge, diagnosis, sources of diet information and perceptions of RDs. Results were summarized with descriptive statistics. The Fisher’s Exact test (α=0.05) calculated an exact probability value for the relationship between: 1) single socio-demographic variables and single diet features, 2) expected and observed physical improvement since diet initiation, and 3) medical necessity for and adherence to a gluten-free diet. Results: A total of 47 participants completed the survey.

  • Paleolithic Hunter-Gatherers' Dietary
    PALEOLITHIC HUNTER-GATHERERS’ DIETARY PATTERNS: IMPLICATIONS AND CONSEQUENCES Al-Domi H1* Hayder Al-Domi *Corresponding author email: [email protected] 1Associate Professor of Nutrition and Dietetics, Department of Nutrition and Food Technology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Jordan, Amman 11492, Jordan. 9935 ABSTRACT The human diet has passed through several revolutionary changes since the introduction of agriculture, which has led to substantial modifications in individuals’ nutrition behavior. Overwhelming evidence supporting that diet is a key environmental risk factor affecting the now rampant incidence of the diseases of affluence such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, and certain types of cancer. Findings on the health implications of low carbohydrate-high protein diet are inconsistent and controversial. Unlike modern humans, it was argued that the eating patterns of the Paleolithic hunter-gatherers could have beneficial effects on human health by reducing diet-induced chronic lifestyle diseases. Hence, the objective of this review was to outline the main aspects of Paleolithic hunter-gatherers’ dietary patterns and its main long-term health consequences. Paleolithic diet is based on the assumption that our hunter-gatherer ancestors were nourished on low carbohydrate-high protein diet. Yet, the majority of literature on Paleolithic diet is anecdotal and reflects two opposite viewpoints. First, advocates and proponents argued that human’s genome could have been modified a little since the early stages of agriculture. Thus, genetically, humans remain Stone Agers- adapted for a Paleolithic dietary regimen. As such, consuming a diet similar to that consumed during the Paleolithic era would be more compatible with our genetic makeup and might reduce the occurrence of diet-related lifestyle diseases.
