In over simplified layman words: eating like a caveman to be healthier. However, Paleo has become polluted with crazy ideas like &#8220;<em>A paleolithic diet is characterized by plenty of cultivated nuts<\/em>&#8221; or &#8220;<em>Milk and cheese are causes of cancer<\/em>&#8221; or even &#8220;<em>Eggs can be eaten, but you should throw away the yolks to avoid too much cholesterol<\/em>&#8221; (you think the caveman really kept them aside for the creme anglaise?!).
