    Introduction

    Going on a low carb diet has many good benefits. The two diets within this book the Paleolithic diet and the Superfoods diet each offer some of the best low carb meals while delivering high nutrients to the body. This combination helps the body to lose excessive weight and maintain a good weight level as well as increasing the metabolism.

    One of the biggest benefits of the low carb diet is weight loss. This diet helps to propel weight loss. Eating high carbs keeps the weight on the body, especially consuming empty carbs. Empty carbs are devoid of nutrition and includes processed foods filled with sugar, white flours, and other junky ingredients. Bad carbs turn to sugar in the body, which then turns to fat and added weight. By denying the body of these bad carbs and cutting the intake of all carbs, the body has a chance to burn off the excessive fat and the weight melts away.

    The low carb diet has benefits for people who are at risk type II diabetes and are obese. Being obese raises the occurrence of type II diabetes. Often, if a person can lose the weight their chances of getting type II diabetes go way down, so a good prevention for diabetes is weight loss. Because the low carb diet works so well, it helps to bring people out of the risk for diabetes if they will lose the weight.

    The National Institutes of Health encourages people to give up certain carbohydrates and replace them with healthy proteins and unsaturated fats to help boost the health and prevent cardiovascular disease. The heart benefits from a low carb diet by helping the body to have normal blood pressures and normal cholesterol levels. The Institutes suggest eating fats and proteins derived from plants (vegetables) rather than animals (meat).

    Speaking of hypertension and cholesterol, further research done by the Institutes of Health revealed that since the low carb diet helps to lose excessive weight it helps to normalize the blood (pressure and cholesterol). The groups notes significant decreases in blood pressure while the good cholesterol rises and helps to keep the bad cholesterol levels down.

    Help to make the low carb diet plan a success by planning the menu ahead of time. Because going low carb means you will not eat certain foods and you will increase the foods higher in protein you have to pay attention when grocery shopping. When shopping for food be aware of the carbs contained within the food. This cookbook help with your grocery list by listing foods that are naturally low in carbs. Plan the menu by choosing recipes within this book. You have choices for breakfast, lunch, supper and even for snacks and desserts. Both the Paleolithic and the Superfoods diet are naturally low in bad carbs giving you healthy choices for all of your meals and snacks.

    One of the biggest enemies of the low carb diet plan is having to leave home and rely on meals and snacks while out. This is where you will have to spend time preparing your snacks and planning for the meals, you will have away from home. Low carb snacks are easy to prepare because often one ingredient makes for a great snack. Eat things like cheeses, nuts, and even beef jerky. Chop up some fresh vegetables to snack on. You can even eat blueberries, cranberries, and cantaloupe if you desire fruit, as these are naturally low carb. If you plan to go out to a restaurant just choose your menu items with your low carb diet in mind. Choose steamed vegetables, lean cuts of meat, and salads with vinegar and oil dressing.

    Sometimes going on a specific diet can be boring, especially if you are having to eat the same foods over and again. This is where this recipe book comes in great handy because you have enough recipes within this book to plan for several weeks of meals without repeating a meal. Be creative with these recipes and modify them to suit your own tastes. Just make sure you stay within the low carb guidelines.

    One of the biggest hindrances of a new diet is in breaking the habit of the old eating habits. If you are accustomed to eating what you want including many high carb meals you will have to make up your mind to say NO to the high carb foods. You are changing your lifestyle when you take on a diet like this. You must be strong and resist the urges to cheat and stay on course with your low carb meal plans.

    Before you go on any new diet plan and especially one like the low carb diet seek the advice of your health care provider first. Go over your physical health and discuss the low carb diet plan. Show them this book and let them see all the recipes of the two diets. Make sure you are able to go on such a diet and also discuss with them about exercising.

    Exercising along with the low carb diet will help to lose weight faster and will help to boost the metabolism. Always start a new exercise routine with the clearance of your health care provider and make sure you do a warm up of easy stretches and a cool down of stretches before and after each workout. Start slow and easy, go walking, or a slow jog. Low impact aerobics are good as well, as these helps to strengthen the cardiovascular system. Do these every other day for a good half an hour. As you diet and as you exercise you will find you have more energy. You can then add to the intensity of the work out routines or add to the time spent exercising.

    Always drink plenty of water along with your food. Water helps to facilitate the diet to work better, keeps the body hydrated, and helps to cleanse it of impurities. Be sure to drink plenty of water when exercising too.

    Section 1: Paleolithic Cookbook

    The standard western diet may be hurting or killing your body in so many ways, that it can be difficult to keep up with all of the health reports related to unhealthy eating. The Paleolithic diet has been popularly known for many decades, however history seems to show that early human ancestors were living on this diet was around 200,000 years ago! Humans were introduced into farming approximately 10,000 years producing a heavy growth grains, bread, pasta, starchy foods and processed foods. However, evidence suggests that evolution is slow to adapt to new types of food that the body may not be used to. This is why the foods including (modern) bread, grease, and processed foods are hard for humans to move on from and onto a healthier lifestyle.

    What is Paleo?

    The paleo lifestyle tries to follow the diet of those from ancient times of indigenous people and is referred to as the Paleolithic Diet as it is from the Stone Age or Paleolithic Age era. The paleolithic diet has additional names it is referred to including, Stone Age Diet, Hunter-Gatherer Diet, or the Cave Man Diet. The Paleolithic diet offers a plethora of health benefits for those who have given it a try. The paleolithic diet isn’t another fad diet as it has been a way of eating thousands of years and it is a healthier option for people to take.

    Anthropologists have found that tribal people who have only been on the paleolithic diet are slimmer, stronger and healthier compared to those who aren’t on the diet. These people do not suffer with cavities, dental problems, and have straight teeth. They also have perfect eyesight, rarely battle with arthritis, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, stroke, depression, cancer, and hypertension and schizophrenia disorders. There are approximately 84 tribes of hunter-gatherers left in this world who eat a Paleolithic diet. These people get daily adequate exercise which also helps them to stay healthy too. The tribal people have never evolved further like current civilization has done. The paleolithic diet is an advanced nutritional plan using wild plants and animals of different species. This diet has been around for over 2.5 million years however it ended 10,000 years ago when agriculture was developed. The Paleolithic diet theory introduced dieters with features of holistic and, comprehensive dietary combined together.

    Why Go the Paleolithic Route?

    The paleolithic diet should provide everything that the body needs to function properly. The primary dietary components are all covered, such as vitamins, phytosterols, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and antioxidants. This diet is needed as it is programmed within our genes to eat these types of foods and discard foods that do not fit within the paleolithic diet.

    Indigenous cultures that are around in this present day still eat the same diet of foods they have eaten for centuries have been considered primitive for not changing their diets. Instead these hunter-gatherers eat the foods that are in their area don’t suffer what modern eaters suffer with today. Anthropologists has studied and compared these people with modernized people and they found that the results in association between diet and disease is completely clear that diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, arthritis and many other diseases were rarely found among the hunter gatherers.

    Many dieters found that, after eating Paleo for three weeks:

    BMI dropped by about 0.8

    Average weight loss was around 5 pounds

    Blood pressure fell by an average of three mmHg

    Increase in antioxidants

    Healthier potassium-sodium balance

    Levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor (blood thickening agent) dropped by 72%.

    Benefits of the Paleo Lifestyle

    The top benefit of the paleolithic diet are eating foods that are naturally high in fiber. Fiber helps to reduce constipation, lower cholesterol, and lowers risks of diabetes and coronary heart disease. The paleolithic diet focuses on helping people lose weight with eating foods that were available during the Paleolithic era. These foods consist of meat, eggs, vegetables, roots, fish, mushrooms and berries. Our bodies are designed to handle foods loaded in high protein, and low carbohydrates however we are not genetically ready to handle low protein and high carb diets during these modern times. Eating a natural diet instead of a diet filled with processed foods, sugar-filled, and grain products.

    The paleolithic diet offers the body a higher proportion of fat compared to the average Western diet. This higher proportion gives the body an additional health benefit of providing more energy and helps the body perform better. The fat found in modern diets is primarily unhealthy, consisting of a lot of trans fats. The quality of fat a body needs to consist of fat soluble nutrients including vitamins A, D, E, and K and the CoQ10 (coenzyme) can’t be absorbed without the presence of fat. All of these vitamins are very important
