Let’s face it. World health problems are reaching epidemic proportions. Supposedly we have better medicine, but are we getting healthier? Some argue that we’re living longer and that gives us more time for health problems to manifest. But health problems with the very young are exploding out of control, too. What could be behind all this?

Is medical science chasing symptoms instead of root causes? Are the pharmaceutical companies chasing profits instead of compassionate care? Is the food industry interested only in cutting costs and increasing profits rather than healthy nutrition? Greed is a powerful motivation.

Your health is your responsibility and your right. The Paleo Diet is creating a revolution based on health and longevity. Feed your body the following from the Paleo Diet food list and get back to nature.
