Paleo diet: The most anthentic way to eat!

Paleolithic Diet
When we sat in the window drinking tea, enjoying a delicious dessert, my heart can not help but Thanksgiving this modern society reward our happiness, it is actually unwittingly ingested no less than four "does not comply with human evolution "food - high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated vegetable oil, starch and milk.
High-fructose corn syrup was first discovered in 1950, when the production of this by fermentation rather sweet syrup and corn syrup containing a high proportion than other of fermentable sugars, in modern society, mainly used in the fermentation production of, for example: Carbon dioxide beverages, alcoholic fermentation, in which some soy sauce, salad dressings certain liquids, many fermented desserts such as bread or cookies, etc.; hydrogenated vegetable oil is another name called "trans fats." This is an artificially processed "alternative" vegetable oils, often "cream" form, as often seen on the cake margarine, as well as some of the chocolate in the "cocoa butter", another well known in our creamer, creamer and other foods are present. To reduce the consumption of such ingredients, preferably in the consumption of these foods, a closer look at product ingredient list; For starch, although we have become accustomed to the "heat source", but in fact for the daily needs of the human body, it is not entirely irreplaceable. In the Paleolithic, cereals (especially wheat), legumes (especially beans) and starchy tubers (such as potatoes, etc.) are not human food, but food for birds, birds can be eaten raw to draw food natural nutritious, but it is less human because they can not be eaten raw eating, cooking techniques until the emergence of humans began to ingest, but it will make the process of cooking food in the original loss of valuable nutrients, since the body's immune system is still depending on food- invaders, there are still many people in the world cereal starch and gluten allergies; milk is not entirely fit for human consumption of food, humans are the only adult still drink milk of other species of animals, and so far only 5,000 years of history , so the body's immune system is also still consider milk as an intruder, immune resistance, lactose allergy phenomenon is not uncommon. World Health Organization statistics show that drinking milk more countries or regions, although the proportion of calcium deficiency disease is low, but breast cancer, diabetes, and high incidence of allergies.
However, do not be frustrated, we eat nutritious food, there are many, such as:
Meat: red meat, especially cattle and sheep who are excellent sources of protein, because by grass-fed cows instead of grains. Pasture stocking cattle, sheep, are all good choices. Natural growth, eating natural food animals Paleolithic diet of choice.
Eggs: forest, pond backyard chickens and ducks and other poultry and their eggs have a high nutrition. Wild-caught (not farmed) aquatic products can provide rich in protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids such. A variety of freshwater and saltwater fish, shrimp, crab, shellfish are a great choice.
Plants: a variety of fruits and berries, although they are high in sugar foods, but most of fructose, and hence does not disturb the glycemic index, but also rich in fiber, vitamins and antioxidants, such as strawberries, cherries, currants, wild grape , peach, apricot, etc., is the best source of vitamins.
Root vegetables: unspoiled forest, ponds, fields picking the fresh bamboo shoots, wild rice, lotus root and fungus, etc., can provide a certain amount of carbohydrates, rich in cellulose and various trace elements needed by the body, vitamin .
Vegetables: You should eat a variety of organic green vegetables, especially green leafy vegetables more ideal. They can provide the body essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and a very important cellulose. All of these plant-based ingredients, are supposed to be the season rather than the off-season planting and fresh as possible.
