"LOSE FAT, Build Muscle & Develop A SHARP MIND... With The CAVE MAN Diet!" ![]() In this Lesson, I’m going to expand on the concept of the PRIMAL foods diet. I’ve written extensively about Dr. Weston A. Price and his research during the 1930’s in which he found that the diets of "primitive, traditional societies" all over the world built strong sturdy bodies free from diabetes and other diseases. You can follow every fad diet that comes around the block and never find one that helps to banish diabetes and every other ailment better than a PRIMAL foods diet. This is a lifestyle choice!
In this Lesson we are going to travel way back in time — before the concept of civilization, before agriculture, even before the first homes and villages were built — all the way back to the Paleolithic era commonly referred to as the "Old Stone Age".
You’ll examine the diet of your most ancient ancestors and discover how this diet kept them vigorous enough to withstand the rigors of primitive life! First, to understand what they went through, let’s examine their "primitive lifestyle". Imagine, no refrigerators, no supermarkets, no cars, and like Gilligan’s Island there was "not a single luxury". Yet our most ancient ancestors were strong, and disease free!
Theirs was a very physical existence. The men hunted small game and large grazing animals. Today, high-powered rifles bring down buffalo, deer, elk, moose, antelope, gazelle, wildebeest, and even elephant from 200 hundred yards or more. There is very little danger.
In Paleolithic times, hunters had to get close enough to throw spears — many spears. They had to hunt in all kinds of weather and in treacherous terrain. This close range hunting was extremely dangerous. A major cause of death back then was being crushed or gorged by large grazing mammals.
In addition, the fossil record shows that our ancestors were themselves stalked by Cave-Lions, Dire Wolves and Sabre-Tooth Tigers. These super carnivores were of enormous size and dwarf modern day lions, tigers and wolves. Imagine protecting your clan from a host of these ravenous predators with only a spear and maybe a hand-held torch!
For the most part, women contributed by gathering wild fruits, berries, tubers, vegetables, nuts and seeds. This sounds easy, but remember, they had to travel long distances to find plant foods that where in season and ripe.
They also had to know which varieties were good to eat and which were poisonous. And they had to gather in a careful manner that allowed the plants to recover so there was a bountiful harvest next season!
Even with this intense, day-to-day danger and extreme activity, our ancestors thrived! They were lean, fit, and free of diabetes, heart disease and other degenerative diseases. How did they survive? Because the whole, PRIMAL foods they consumed provided the ultimate in nutrition, which made them robust and hearty!
However, the common perception is that they lead lives that were "poor, nasty, brutish, and short," as expressed by Thomas Hobbes in The Leviathan. This simply is not true. Accounts by early European explorers uniformly reveal that the fisher-hunter-gatherers they encountered were sturdy, healthy, strong, vivacious and happy.
And this was true of all so-called "primitive" people — whether they lived in the tropics, the temperate zones or the polar regions. They were free from any of our common chronic diseases.
