I got sick so I stoped eating Paleo......... page

[Darwin17]

Not me.....but several others that have been "converted"

They do so well for like six weeks and then they get a cold and start eating pizza and other things that they know not to eat. Seems very strange that eating such great food and get a little cold and it all goes to shit!

My thing is that most people that have "converted" from myself or fiance DO NOT READ ANYTHING about Paleo/Primal!!!! That to me is dense and I tell them so as it is a very easy choice to not eat stupid stuff when you realize just what it does. Seems that most treat this like Atkins or something vs. a way to reset your genetic expression. Oh wait....this now sounds like a fad diet

You should keep a vat of bone marrow stock brewing and bring it to them. A hot jar of that is the new coffee, I tell ya what!

When/if I ever get a cold/sick(it does not happen very often), i opt for either fasting/rest, or if I'm hungry, I choose to eat wholesome foods. Eating crap just seems like it would prolong the sickness. The bone broth that Doc B suggests is great stuff! I like to think of it as Primal Gatorade.

Thanks for the reminder - I need to make some stock from those marrow bones I got from the farmers market.

That's funny. The only time I've gotten sick since starting Paleo 2.5 years ago was when I took a short break when some friends were in town. I won't be doing that again.

I definitely crave more carby things when I'm sick, but it's easy to manage that without resorting to junk food.

I wish! To hot here to even think of having the crockpot running all night. This will be nice come fall

Dosen't work so well with a toddler in Daycare. Although 6 months primal and I've only been sick once!

[patrickh]

I could imagine. We were going to put ours in daycare (would have just started a few days ago), but were lucky enough to be able to make things work on just one salary.

It's been hard for me to get over that thought hill as well. For me it was "If this flu makes my stomach hurt anyway, what harm is there in gluten?".
