THE CAVEMAN DIET - FOODS TO AVOID

THE CAVEMAN DIET - FOODS TO AVOID
BY GRAEME THOMPSON
While the official name is the Paleolithic diet, most people know it as the Caveman Diet and it
is quickly becoming one of the more popular diet plans in many health and fitness circles.
There is good reason why the diet is popular - it works and it is based on a relatively simple
plan. Specifically, it deals with eating foods and vegetables that would be a staple of the
cavemen that lived 2.5 million years ago.
Does that mean that the types of food you eat in this diet are tough to find? No, you will ne be
required to eat dinosaur meat. You would be eating meats, fruits, and vegetables that are
natural and common to the natural world. In short, chicken breast and salad would be common
items in such a diet. However, you would not be adding any ketchup or Caesar salad dressing to
the mix. Nor would you be drinking a soda with it and you certainly would not be eating a slice
of cake. After all, none of these things existed 2.5 million years ago. That is the key to the food
you want to avoid on such a diet. You want to stick with foods from the Paleolithic era and stay
away from those items that are products of the modern era.
And the food of the modern era is certainly not what you want to deal with because they are
loaded with processed items. It is these processed components that are often the villains that
pack on the excess fat we all wish we could avoid. As such, anything that would be considered
an "evil construct" of the modern era needs to be avoided. This will enhance your ability to drop
weight quite significantly. So, what are some of the common foods specifically best avoided?
Here is a look:

Anything with refined sugar is a real no-no. Refined sugars and their cheap cousins such as
corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup are best avoided since they do nothing but pack on fat.
Any type of carbonated or processed beverage is to be avoided when engaging in this diet. And
alcohol is strictly forbidden since it is nothing but a health hazard and a high source of calories.
Organic game meats are highly advised to eat but those meats that have additives and
processed ingredients need to be strictly avoided. Again, a common theme with this diet is that
you perpetually avoid eating anything with processed items in it. These are commonly the
source of rapid weight gain which is why they serve no purpose in a health conscious diet.
Grains and dairy products are avoided because they were not used as a food source during the
era. Some may find the exclusion of these items curious since they are not associated with
harm to the diet. However, they can pack on weight and cause other problems which are why
the Caveman Diet eliminates them from the menu.
The Caveman Diet may seem restrictive in terms of its food choices but it really isn't. There are
many items you can eat. You just need to be mindful of those foods to avoid.

Caveman Diet.
