I'm very sorry for your loss. It's so much harder to lose a parent than anyone is ever prepared for. I felt like it easily took me about three years before I felt normal again. (Not that the shock...

I'm a bit confused. So are you saying that anything an individual causes themselves shouldn't be considered a disease? Or are you saying that because it is a normal physiologic state that it is not...

I grew up eating a big breakfast in the summer and not much in the winter. But we lived on a farm and worked hard manual labor from morning til evening with a moderate lunch. So I think in that...

There is an amazing little German place about 1.5 hours from where I live. Whenever I am in the area I always get the Schnitzel. It is perfection!

I don't have celiac disease and my gut health...

Keep in mind though - it's not just our genes that impact what we can eat. It's also dependent on our microbiome. So with time, we drift away from the original bacterial colonization that helped...

I'm Irish and German. I am severely intolerant of potatoes and have the alcohol tolerance of a 10 year old girl.

So much for my DNA :)

My family used to serve raw beef open faced sandwhiches - ground round, raw onion, some type of strong stinky cheese and a slice of rye bread. But the beef came from our own cows.

I don't think I...

Hmmm....I guess it really depends on the condition you have. Would you mind giving more details?

Regarding the coconut milk, it can cause GI upset for some people if they take too much too soon. ...

I find that my appetite naturally cycles quite a bit eating this way. I will go a few weeks eating everything i can get my hands on, and then my appetite will just drop and I barely eat for a while....

Eat less, exercise more. Oh, and don't eat any fat at all.

I used to adore cereal. A nice substitute is to toast some coconut flakes until they are golden brown and mix them in with a paleo "cereal" and eat it with ice cold milk. It had a lot of calories,...

I love white rice, but find it much harder to maintain my weight when I am including it on a regular basis. White Potatoes are nightshades and cause my arthritis to flare, so I never, ever eat them....

magnesium is a good suggestion. You could also look in to melatonin, 5-htp, or l-tryptophan before bed. They all are parts of the seratonin-melatonin-sleep hormones, but not everyone reacts well to...

Hey Paleobird;

I took some advice you gave on another thread and bought the Teecino gluten free coffee substitute and the arroy boxed coconut milk. They are really delicious!! I added a scoop of...

Sugar occasionally becomes a big problem for me as well. About a month ago a few friends and I got together and each put $50 in. The money goes to the person who goes the longest without a single...

I eat all different varietals of purple sweet potatoes. To be honest, I've never been able to remember which ones are which. I just get whichever ones I find at the store and hope for the best. ...

I had this issue for many years (not RLS, but my legs always felt like I had just worked out too hard). My doctor recently put me on L-glutamine supplements to help with some gut inflammation, and...

Congratulations on your amazing success so far!! One of my favorite things about primal eating is that I no longer think about food all the time. I think you'll love it :)

Ugh....first day of the digestive enzyme and my tummy is not so happy. Anyone else have this issue?

I put frozen veggies on top of my lunch food - keeps it cool until I heat everything up to eat.

Also, I frequently leave my food at my desk all day at work (even when I don't put the frozen...

I have a rule (even on vacation) that I never eat two non-primal meals in a row. So, if I go out and have nachos and beer for dinner, I just enjoy it and make 100% sure that my next meal is primal. ...

I have not done GAPS (although I am considering it).

But for the autoimmune version of paleo that I use, I don't limit starches or natural sugars at all. If you have ankylosing spondylitis you...

Hi everyone;

My doctor (he is a fan of a paleo diet) has asked me to start drinking green veggie smoothies. Does anyone do this regularly? Notice any changes in energy?

I am torn about...

I often bring a sweet potato salad to cookouts - it's always very popular! I also make a carrot salad that is very good. A nice platter of veggies, olives, and cheese is always popular. I've been...
