About 7 - 8 weeks ago I commenced the beginning of my journey into the Paleo lifestyle. In my current study of Nutritional Medicine at the Australasian College of Natural Therapies (ACNT), I heard about the Paleo Way from my tutor who has been Paleo for 2 years and loves it so far. When I heard about Paleo, I decided to do some more research to find out what it is.
Through my research I stumbled across the website Paleo Australia, which provided me with the answer to my question.

What the *bleep* is paleo?
‘Paleo’ as a word simply means ‘old’ and refers to the way we as a species were living in our days of hunting and gathering. Living a modern paleo lifestyle doesn’t mean you should move into a cave and hunt down your neighbours cows with a spear. It simply means looking back to what we as a species have evolved to eat, in order to achieve optimal health.
