\u2022 THE LOW CARB LOWDOWN \u2022 <\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How did people eat millions of years ago before we had factories to process and package food to be easily accessible for purchase from a store? Many people have heard of the Paleo diet as a way to get back to eating how humans ate when they first roamed the earth. But what is the purpose of this diet, who is it for, and what can you do to be successful?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the Paleo Diet?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Paleo diet, short for Paleolithic diet, is based on what human hunter-gatherers ate before modern civilizations started mass-producing food. Back then we didn\u2019t have access to the processing or technology that is used to make many of the processed foods we eat today. So the focus is on whole foods, exactly the way they appear in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea is that hunter-gatherers had lower rates of lifestyle diseases like obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and more. Between eating only whole foods and leading a physically active lifestyle, it\u2019s hypothesized that we can go back to that way of eating in order to improve our health and avoid lifestyle diseases that are increasing at alarming rates.

Can You Enjoy Sweets on a Paleo Diet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many people assume that following a paleo diet means giving up all their favorite sweet treats, but this is not the case. With a bit of creativity and some quick substitutions, it\u2019s easy to enjoy delicious sweets and treats while still adhering to the principles of the paleo diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paleo desserts have become increasingly popular in recent years, especially for those following a paleo diet or looking for healthier alternatives to traditional desserts. These desserts are typically made with natural, whole-food ingredients and are free from refined sugars and processed ingredients. LC Foods fills the bill, offering sweet treats that have NO JUNK! Explore the many options available here >><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’m completely obsessed with these brownies!! I order them to try them out and was pleasantly surprised to find out how good they are. Even my husband, who’s not always fond of low carb Sweets options, is a fan.” <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Paleo Diet incorporates:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Higher protein intake<\/li>
  • Higher potassium and lower sodium intake<\/li>
  • Higher fiber absorption<\/li>
  • Lower carbs<\/li>
  • Moderate to higher fat intake, balancing Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats<\/li>
  • Higher intake of antioxidants, minerals and vitamins<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    When you eat healthy, you live longer. Even though our ancestors didn\u2019t live as long as we do, they also didn\u2019t eat meat found in modern grain-fed animals or have access to every manufactured food product that we pull off the supermarket shelves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So, eat healthy just like your ancient ancestors did. The Paleo Diet works with your genetics to help you take the weight off. By shedding those extra pounds, you will feel younger, more energetic and stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
