Had to respond when I saw this, my husband has been following PB for at least 6 months now and our youngest son who is 10 loves to give him a hard time and offer him some food then say – “oh that’s right it’s not on your di…I mean ‘eating plan’.” That said PB has changed the way my husband looks and feels, cleared up his chronic sinusitus (sp?)and I find it encourages me to eat well too.

Hi Mark,
I have been reading about the Primal way of living for some time now and I can see the benefits it could have on my lifestyle. I have been wondering though, can this eating style work for someone who is training for a marathon? I weigh about 160lbs and run 3-4 days a week and cross train 2-3 times a week, each session is usually over an hour. I will be building my mileage base over the next few months and don’t want to pass out from lack of carbs during a run! Is there a ratio or amount of carbs-fats-protein you could suggest for someone in my situation? Thanks for your help Mark:)
