The paleo diet is a low sugar, high protein and low sodium diet that is meant to provide optimum health by following in our ancestors footsteps who lived in the Paleolithic age.

Pastured, free-range chicken, grass-fed beef and anything organic are the most preferred foods for a paleo dieter. In terms of proteins, seafood/fish, poultry, lean meats, wild game are favored because they contain less saturated fats unlike processed meats.

When it comes to nuts or seeds, the ones with the most concentration of omega-3 i.e. walnuts, macadamia, almonds and cashews are the best. Fruits with low glycemic index e.g. tomatoes, melons, onions and broccoli are favored unlike modern fruits to be large and look good. Herbs and spices are recommended regardless of whether they have been processes since they are organic anyways i.e. vinegar.
