Today, I’m releasing two brand new Primal Blueprint eBooks and giving away several gifts as part of a special offer for Mark’s Daily Apple readers (you!). The offer lasts just one week (April 29-May 6). You won’t want to miss it. But more on that in a moment…
One of the primary challenges to living a primal-adapted lifestyle is accessibility. Make that affordability and accessibility. One of the constant refrains I hear from Groks and Grokettes is “I just don’t have access to primal-friendly foods in my small town” or “paleo foods are so much more expensive that it’s hard to stay on track.”
I hear you…and that’s partly why I invested in Thrive Market, an online health food co-op that takes accessibility and affordability out of the equation (we’re talking Whole Foods products with Costco prices but in everyday sizes). For a ridiculously low monthly membership (just $5) you gain access to more than 4,000 of the highest quality, certified organic primal/paleo-friendly foods on the planet, all at 25-50% off retail prices. You can stock up on certified-organic, and even fair-trade foods with no hassle or guesswork, and shop for paleo-approved supplements, home goods, cleaning supplies, body care, and beauty staples while you’re at it.
How is Thrive able to get you such great deals? Because they don’t mark up their retail prices like other stores do, but instead use a low-cost annual membership fee ($59.95, just $5 a month) to cover costs so that they can pass wholesale savings directly on to you. My annual membership fee was more than covered in savings on my first order, and yours probably will be too. To see for yourself, dig up some of your most recent shopping receipts and then explore the online shelves of Thrive Market to see what you’d save.
Thrive Gives and You Get
In addition to saving you guys money and making the primal lifestyle accessible to all, I was also called upon to invest in Thrive Market because I believe in its commitment to sustainability and its socially conscious Thrive Gives program. For every paid membership Thrive receives, it gives a free membership to a low-income family in need. And that need is great…49 million Americans experience food insecurity, and 80% of low-income families eat unhealthy foods in order to make ends meet. Many low-income neighborhoods don’t have natural, healthy food options to begin with. Your Thrive Market membership opens up the doors to healthy living foods, home, and baby products for a family looking to thrive.
And while we’re making the world healthier one family at a time, we’re also helping the environment. Thrive partners with eco-friendly vendors on a shared mission and boasts a 100% carbon neutral footprint through carbonfund.org. All packaging, boxes, and inserts are made from recyclable paper and are recyclable.

I strongly believe in the Thrive mission and program, so I put together a promotional deal for all Mark’s Daily Apple readers in case you’re still on the fence.
It’s two-fold:
