Favorite Internet Diet Gurus! page

[Gorbag]

If you have a video from a favorite health or diet guru that you think may have an important message for the paleo community or humanity in general, then this is the place to post it! Personally I have not any favorites yet, but this lady seem to have something important to communicate, so she can have the honor of being the first “guru” out on this thread:

If people would have listened, there's be no paleo...

Yeah, that Jack Lalanne sums it up. What else is there to say?

[Gorbag]

Great stuff Otzi, the late Jack LaLanne was a REAL guru though! I remember that he said something like; "If it tastes good - spit it out" and "If man made it, don't eat it!" That guy was far ahead of his time obviously, one of the paleo forefathers so to say...

Yet, even he died on a good diet. Is there hope for any of us if he couldn't survive?

At least he made it to 96, and died of pneumonia because he was too stubborn to go to doctor. Other than that, they all say he was never sick a day in his life and worked out for 2 hours every morning at 5am.

I guess that we are all pretty much doomed, yes... The father of my father lived to his 102 years, LaLanne died at 96 if I remember correctly, but paleo, primal, or even vegans - they all dies and becomes worm fodder in the end! Sad but true..

That's pretty chronic, by standards of this board.

Nobody gets out alive!

But yeah, my man was doing fingertip pushups and hitting the gym right up until he succumbed to pneumonia. It ain't all about the years in your life.... Its the life in your years

He died in his late 90s which is pretty awesome. But, so did his brother, and I can't find anything to determine if it was lifestyle or just fantastic genes. Either way, I'm a fan of the guy. He ate fish toward the end of his life, proving you can teach an old dog new tricks.
