Paleo diet

The paleolithic diet, also known as the caveman diet is a diet where people eat only foods that are believed to have been available in the Paleolithic era. Hence its name. The idea behind this diet is to revert back to the way early humans ate which people believe is more in tune with the human body. A paleo diet usually consists of lean meats, fish, fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds, and oils from fruits or nuts. While on the paleo diet, you should avoid foods that became common when farming emerged such as grains and dairy products, and highly processed foods.

PROS

Nutrient-Rich- The paleo diet consists of mainly fruits and vegetables which contain many nutrients that have varied benefits,

Improved Satiety- While on the paleo diet, you may notice that you feel more full after meals. This is because of the combination of healthy fats and vegetables. Fat can be satiating depending on what it is eaten with. The paleo diet offers the right amount of fiber in vegetables and the right amount o fat to make you eat less naturally because you feel more full.

Weight Loss- As is the case for many diets, this diet aids in weight loss. Part of this weight loss has to do with the satiety that comes with the paleo diet. When you feel more full you eat less, which will lead to weight loss.

        CONS

Eliminated food groups- The paleo diet entirely excludes grains and dairy products. Cutting out any food groups means that you could lose essential nutrients. Of course, it is still possible to get all the nutrients you need, but it becomes more difficult.

Sustainability- Since this diet cuts out most processed foods, you will have to make a lot of meals at home. While this is a healthy habit, it can be expensive and hard to keep up with.

This is not the Paleolithic Era- While it is true that most foods have changed due to human impacts such as farming and processing, we cannot ignore the fact that plants and animals evolve on their own. There is also not enough evidence to be completely sure of what early humans ate or all of the foods available to them. For these reasons, it is impossible to eat just as humans did in the Paleolithic Era.

The raw vegan diet combines the concepts of veganism and raw foodism. It excludes animal products (like veganism) and foods must be mostly or completely unprocessed and raw.
