Furthermore, a salient part of revolutionizing is…

To put it most simply, the Paleo diet is whatever would have been eaten by people living anywhere from 10,000 to 2,500,000 years ago - generally known as Palaeolithic man (and woman of course!).

Ten thousand years, the recent end of what is commonly termed the Paleolithic period, is still a long time ago - a lot has changed since then.…
