Make Your Body Fat Disappear
Welcome to the Paleo Diet 101: the Paleo Diet explained for beginners.
In this episode of Live Lean TV, I’m sharing a beginners guide to the Paleo Diet, where I’ll be covering:
- What is the Paleo Diet?
- How will the Paleo Diet help you Live Lean?
- How can you start the Paleo Diet today?
My goal with this video post is to simplify the Paleo Diet phenomenon for you, in 5 minutes or less.

Research shows the Paleo diet is one of the most effective dietary lifestyles for fat loss and overall health.
This way of eating may also help prevent diseases that are currently overwhelming the Westernized population.
What Is The Paleo Diet?
Well since the word “diet” has so many short-term misconceptions tied to it, I prefer to call the Paleo Diet, a lifetime way of eating.
People who follow a Paleo way of eating are simply trying to eat as similar as possible with our genetic heritage as hunter-gatherers.
The following motto describes the Paleo Diet best:
If it doesn’t swim, run, or fly, or isn’t green and grown in the ground, don’t eat it.
Approved Paleo Diet Food List
The foods that should be making up all, or the majority, of your meals include:
In other words, one ingredient whole foods.
By no surprise, this means the candy bars, chips, crackers, and donuts are out.
Are Grains Allowed On The Paleo Diet?
Grains and dairy should also be removed when following the Paleo Diet.
Think of it this way.
The average caveman was lean and athletic.
Compare that too today’s average man or woman who is:
- overweight
- out of shape
- on the verge of numerous nutrition related diseases
Over the years, this change in nutrition and the standard American diet has had a big impact on today’s health issues.
The western society has moved away from primarily eating plants and animals for food, to eating products filled with refined grains and sugar.
Our genes are 99% the same as our cavemen ancestors, yet grains were never a big part of their diet.
Since the agricultural revolution, approximately 10,000 years ago, our bodies have never adjusted to the influx of grains we throw at it every single day.
Grains Also Contain Gluten And Lectins
For many people, the over consumption of gluten and lectins has been shown to cause an unhealthy hormonal fat storing response, as well as digestive tract issues.
Unlike the conventional wisdom you always hear, the body does not require a large amount of carbohydrates for energy.
In fact, when there is an absence of carbohydrates in your system, your body can more effectively burn stored fat as its primary energy source.

What Carbohydrates Can I Eat On The Paleo Diet?
You can still eat carbohydrates on the Paleo Diet, but they should mainly come from fibrous vegetables, some fruit, and potatoes, including sweet potatoes.
Typically after 14 days on the Paleo Diet, you’ll stop having sugar cravings, and the energy crashes associated with them.
Is Dairy Allowed On The Paleo Diet?
Similar to grains, the same goes for dairy.
Why no dairy?
I’ll try to make this simple.
Mother’s breast milk is designed to make young babies grow and help build their immune systems.
However, once we’re weened off of our mother’s breast milk, it doesn’t mean we should be fed dairy milk from another species.
Adult humans were not meant to consume milk from another species.
This alway seems to be a hard one for people to comprehend.
Is The Paleo Diet For You?
I first learned about the paleo diet from the book, The Paleo Solution.

If you’re not yet convinced that the Paleo Diet is right for you, I recommend you check it out.
However, if you’re currently happy with how you look and feel, and enjoy eating grains and dairy, keep doing it.
But if you’re one of the countless people who are struggling everyday with low energy, weight loss, and disease, I highly recommend you try the Paleo Diet for 30 days.
How To Get Started With The Paleo Diet Today
The first 7 days of following the Paleo Diet and not eating grains will be tough.
You probably will feel low energy, but that’s normal.
This short-term feeling of low energy is just your body adapting from burning carbohydrates and sugar for energy versus burning stored fat for energy.
However, when you make it past the first 30 days, you’ll be committed for life.
Plus, you always have your weekly cheat meal to get your carbohydrate fix, if you want.
If you’re up for trying the Paleo Diet, I highly recommend you invest in a cookbook that provides meal ideas.
Get Over 200 Paleo Recipes
My Eat Clean Live Lean Cookbook includes over 200 quick, healthy, easy, affordable, and delicious Paleo approved meals and snacks.
You’ll also get 8 weeks of already done for you meal plans, using the recipes from my cookbook, and grocery lists.
Everything is planned and done for you.

I love paleo but I find myself ‘cheating’ by eating things like choc date
cake made with dates/honey and cocoa powder, and ‘fried sweet potato cakes’
although technically ‘paleo’ I can’t help thinking I’m doing this
wrong/cheating?
I’m not clear why dairy should be avoided. Milk is what babies have
depended on for the entire history of mammals.
All diets ultimately fail because your body will always win as it wants to
revert back to it’s natural default state from birth which is
“Homeostasis”. This is a diet free state which all humans are born in.
Diets are stressful to both the body and mind and it is the reason we seek
out comfort foods mainly carbohydrates as they relax us and help to create
serotonin which is critical to good mood and a feeling of happiness and
optimism and that is why nature provided them. Diets can be useful short
term when we are sick such as diabetes type 2, fatty liver, insulin
problems and various metabolic disorders mainly coming from high sugar
processed foods, but high fat and low carb is not the answer long term
!!. Diets of daily animal protein and fat can be highly acidic to your
system making you feel irritable and uncomfortable and not healthy long
term as opposed to more gentle alkaline foods. The human body is to
complex to say everyone should just eat HFLC 365 days a year. Diets are too
prescriptive and not sustainable long term. All we need do is remove man
made processed foods and whatever is left will be what nature intended us
to eat. It is man made processed carbs that are the problem and not natural
carbs which contain a mixture of natural sugar, fibre and vitamins ( as
nature intended ). With regards to abundant health, the answer is simple –
we can either eat from the sick plate of man, or of what nature provides
!! It’s rather sad to know that natural carbs have been given a bad name
all because of the real culprit which is man made processed carbs. We
crave carbs for a reason, because they play an important role in our
biological / physiological and emotional make up and it is completely
normal and natural to eat them ( unprocessed ). Unprocessed carbs as I
have stated are a wonderful complete food from nature’s kitchen and they
have fibre, vitamins and natural sugar, the way nature intended and they
also help to raise our serotonin levels and make us feel happy and
sociable. Low serotonin results in a more irritable antisocial and
depressed state with a self critical negative attitude. Please do not turn
your back on nature and fool yourself by thinking carbohydrates are the
enemy, a balanced natural diet will never fail or cause cravings. many
people crave carbohydrates — especially cookies, candy, or ice cream —
when they feel upset, depressed, or tired. Researchers at MIT and other
major universities world wide, including here in England have studied this
relationship with stress, low mood and carbohydrates, they are convinced
that the carbohydrate craving is related to decreases in the feel-good
hormone serotonin, which is marked by a decline in mood and concentration.
Professor Wurtman states when you eat carbs, your body makes more
serotonin, the feel-good hormone that is boosted when you are on an
antidepressant. Eating the carbs, she says, is an attempt to undo the
depressed mood.That is one of the reasons a diet low in carbohydrates
cannot be sustained by most people and they will inevitably revert back to
a more balanced, non-restrictive dietary approach as this is less stressful
to the body and mind. I follow no particular diet, I just eat a clean,
balanced healthy way
worst diet ever…
a lifetime way of eating: if it doesn’t fly, walk, swim or is green
Ey brad im 15 and tryna lose weight. Idk if i should try this cause im
still a growing boy and i dont know if low carbs would be good for my
hormones

Why is everyone freaking out about gluten? It’s not unhealthy at all. The
only reason not to eat it is if you have celiac disease (which is very,
very rare). If you don’t have celiac disease, then why are you not eating
gluten? It’s like people assuming peanuts are bad for you because some
people are allergic to them, it’s ridiculous.
good shit
when i quit eating grains i felt like i was quitting smoking again
*Amazing intro onto paleo thank you. i have just started my first week into
a new lifestyle of paleo living and already enjoying it and feeling the
benefits!*
Quinoa and brown rice are considered as grains? Or can we include them in
the paleo?
Thx in advance
How do u know what the caveman looks like there is no photograpbic evidence
and the life expectancy all those yrs ago is actually alot lower than it is
today
Paleo diet = foolishness. There is a large body of real nutrition research
that has existed before/without this fable that “because cavemen did it
it’s good”. This is foolishness. Of course if you avoid carbs you will lose
weight… what does a caveman have to do with ANY of this? Illogical.
Cheers for the video content! Sorry for chiming in, I would appreciate your
initial thoughts. Have you ever tried – Sayerdsan Delicious Paleo Secret
(just google it)? Ive heard some super things about it and my BF at last
said ta ta to the uncontrollable weight gain problem with the straight
forward Paleo recipes it provides.
Cheers for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I am interested in your
thoughts. Have you ever tried – Sayerdsan Delicious Paleo Secret (google
it)? Ive heard some great things about it and my work buddy said ta ta to
the belly fat problem with the straight forward Paleo recipes it shows you.
No wonder the wizard tower’s attack range is so short!
Caveman where lean because they workt all day now people sit on there ass
all day and that’s why they are fat ,the paleo diet is stupid and it will
shorten you’re life
Would gluten-free organic blue corn chips be allowed in a casual paleo
lifestyle? Cavemen would have nibbled on maize right?
What happened to paper Mario come on matpat
Carb The Fuck Up!
♨ ♨ ♨ *Which one is the Best paleo Diet Recipes Book?* ♨ ♨ ♨
Great way to sum paleo up, good video. People today still have a tough time
understanding evolution and the fact that we are still the same as our
ancestors. Grains are the root of the degenerative diseases today. Look
at the Eskimos, to the tribes in South America, they still live off the
land, they have no cancer or heart disease. We have been indoctrinated
from preschool that grains are good, dairy is good. It is just a big
business and a big political lobby. I have been paleo for over 15 years,
it is a lifestyle, I never get sick, I spring out of bed in the morning, I
sleep well. Wanna stay away from your doctor, go paleo.
There are any book in Portuguese ?
Dont cheat. Dont ever cheat its gonna make you start eating bad food again.
Trust me

No disrespect, I’m just very active….
It’s obvious that your not a hard worker. That diet is for lazy people.

i think taking dairy out is possibly the biggest mistake ever, but it
should be limited to raw milk because its much healthier
I have been on Paleo now for about ten days. I know, not super long, but so
far I experienced: excessive sweating (I usually never sweat) problems to
sleep at night, having a huge bloated belly, I wonder when I finally start
seeing positive results. I will stick to it, because I know it is healthy,
but how long does it usually take to lose some weight and feel good????
Just a thought. One study done in a small community in Africa shows that
both milk and dairy can be fine from a cardio standpoint. The bulk of their
diet is from red meat and whole milk, and they have virtually no heart
disease. You eat what you can find.
wow I hope this helps.. I got fat on rawtill4..
Holy shit a 1% DNA change is HUGE! I mean, chimps share 99% of our DNA.
Gorillas share 98%. 1%, you’re talking about a completely different
primate.
Apart from promoting his own book (which I can’t judge untill I buy it),
the guy was talking 100% right.
Your awsome dude. nice video
Chris your ping sucks
amazing intro onto paleo thank you. i have just started my first week into
a new lifestyle of paleo living and already enjoying it and feeling the
benefits! its a shame how natural foods are more expensive than processed
stuff! the world doesnt make sense
This works man..
This is just a commercial. I was curious to what it was and i could do
everything but no carbs….. Having oatmeal in the morning is good i think
if you intend to not sit on your ass all day. I take this diet as as a “I
am trying to lose weight because i do nothing diet” rather than a diet
someone who is active would pursue. But hey do whatever you want just make
sure you eat gluten free food you hipsters lol. I always get extra gluten
whenever i eat my pizza
I’m so glad I found your channel! My brother and dad are trying Paleo and
it’s great to understand the Paleo diet so that I can help them stick to
it.
this diet makes a lot of sense– when I quit dairy I lost all of the pain
and swelling in my joints!! I did quit eggs though too– Thanks!!
Eggs and animal fat and dairy gave me diabetes–Cave men ate roots, and
tree bark and the rest of us ate grains for the last 10.000 years which
caused extreme health- look at asia?? They eat rice. and they are healthy.
No pork? Pork tenderloin is quite lean I thought?
This is just a fad diet people just, a bunch of crossfit morons, just limit
your calories make your macro nutrients, grains are good for unclogging of
the blood, ppl it’s the year 2015 why would you want to be in a hunter
gatherer life? Look at people in 3rd world countries they pretty much still
live in that hunter gathered life look at there bodies and health its
unhealthy, your body needs grains, proteins, fats, starch, sugar, carbs,
saturated fats! Just don’t over eat work out for a hour a day mix it up
with different muscles groups. Then you would be fine but that’s just my
advice my opinion you can follow this new fad but I’m not I’m healthy, I
look good feel great. Ok cya
a part. not “apart”
Nice post
Say we are venom
Ambrose will organically get over now they are reducing him to the midcard.
His promo’s are too good for him to just loiter there. He will be the most
over guy in 6 months to a year! People like him and ziggler benefit from it
in a weird way
Ah paleo diet. Wonder if you’d sell as well if you called it the real thing
– retard diet.
1) lions kill one out of every ten tries. A lion for the imbeciles is a LOT
better at hunting than a bunch of screaming cave people with loin clothes &
pointy sticks in killing. So the probability of us eating meat in any great
number is a bunch of BS. The only way we’d have done this is if we’d
savaged refuse [as in remains] from top predators so it wouldn’t have been
fresh caught.
2) You keep going on about supplements or other cave idiots do. Why?
Because the shit food of nowadays equals garbage compared to yesteryears.
Supplements are a fantastic way to put your health at risk – for example,
you are aware are you not that too much vitamin E which the paleo diet
encourages either by food or supplement results in nerve & brain damage yes?
3) Most meat – the crux of your idiot diet – is processed to shit. How many
of you fools know of the FDA & the arsenic that has been added to chicken
feed for years. Lean meat is mostly chicken = arsenic for the pea brains is
a poison. Even if you don’t eat chicken by lots – you can’t eat extensive
fish because of mercury poisoning. And well both beef & pigs are pumped so
full of steroids & antibiotics that they’re the poster boys & girls of
every pharmacy company in the world.
4) I have seen so much ignorant with this diet, it’s pathetic. Whole grain
isn’t good for you. Brown rice isn’t good for you…. white grain food &
white rice you inbreeds is so processed that there is ABSOLUTELY no value
to it.
Morons.
5) compared to cave people the modern human nowadays is a fat useless blob.
Without proper exercise your paleo diet is merely screwing your body up.
Crabtree… SORRY AS CAN BE. Soup sammich quality.
Thumbs up cuz he’s hot.
What about almond milk? Since it comes from nuts and not animals is it a
better source for calcium? I distribute for a wellness company and we have
a hydrolyzed collagen protein shake that I mix with almond milk. The shake
itself is gluten and carb free with no added sugar. I was thinking of doing
a hybrid style diet using paleo dieting for my meals along with using my
company’s wellness supplements that being the shake and another protein
supplement snack.
What about beans? Soy Beans
Neolithic revolution son. Dumb bitch learn your facts.
any one have any evidence that showed we ate high fat in the paleolithic
era? there are not many wild animals that carry a large amount of fat
I think he takes roids.
esta noche juega el TRI,NImodo que pierda,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
i think im going to eat a modify paleo diet since im part asian, my
ancestors are rice, so i think its ok because of my genetic make up
And make sure to keep using the refined oils like coconut oil and olive oil
and factory farmed high fat beef, that were definitely around in the paleo
era
I just watched a Ted talk debunking the fact that our ancestors never ate
grains as evidence was found that they did eat them in the paleo period.
I don’t think it takes away the fact that eating the way described in the
video is good for fat loss and the agricultural revolution probably
increased our consumption of grains a lot but to say we never ever ate them
before then does seem highly unlikely.
Myself I like some oat porridge and brown rice occasionally (never on their
own of course) and daily fruit but that’s all the carbs I have and I’m
happy with that.
What about beer? Is beer okay? I mean, I guess I could convert to wine, but
that might be difficult when I go to sporting events. Beer vedors are
everywhere, but they don’t have a guy walking through the stands shouting,
“Premier cru bordeaux! Get your premier cru bordeaux here!”
Is it possible to be on a vegan diet and go paleo and still have a soul?
I eat souls and drink tears.
Thank you. I really appreciate your knowledge and help Brad and have been
taking your advice. However, what about black rice and beans? Black rice
and beans are extremely nutritious. And check out some facts on the Paleo
Diet…. It should be called the Farmer’s Diet or The Paleo’s Diet. Science
has manipulated the structure of many of our fruits and veggies and they
are not all in the exact forms they were thousands of years ago and diet
depended on the climate our ancestors lived. Check out this TED Talk…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMOjVYgYaG8 another great video…

Hello There! Nice video thanks! Sorry to intrude but I’d like to know if
you heard rumours about “Brendt Secret Diet Recipe System” (check google)
My co-worker told me incredible things about it and now her and her husband
look fantastic and feel great!
Oh hai there! Have you heard the talk about – Zoomo Simple Paleo Recipes
– (should be on google, do a search)?. I’ve heard awesome things about it
and people are just buzzing about how much healthier and trimmer they are
and the energy they now have just by using these easy recipes.
How about rice and oats?? It’s not paleo but there’s no gluten, and I love
eating them
Our genes are also 99% the same as mice…
Hey Brad,
Is it okay to eat Steal Cut Oats on the Paleo diet? For a sweeter I add
organic raisons during the last ten mins of cooking the oats. I cut out
dairy last year so I use Almond milk in the oats.
I also removed bread about a year ago and never looked back. Cheers and
thanks for the posting the videos! Dave
Check out this amazing paleo cookbook!!!

I went through some posts which say diary makes you fat????Is it true….
Don’t spread bullshit, the average caveman was about five foot six.
I wood be a five foot nine giant.
Also, they were lean but not beefy. Every seen a male kangaroo?
Yeah. Like that, except skinnier because we are taller.
Milk makes baby cows fat. Why do people drink it?
I have become a fan within a short time after I started using this
>>> —www.paleorecipestv5.blogspot.com— <<< My health has improved dramatically and weight I lost while following this diet is an added bonus in itself. Like me, the Paleo diet might just be the answer for you too. I would recommend this for both beginners and professional dieters.
Definitely want to try this I have already been eating mostly organic and I
don’t drink soda or juices only water and green tea. The diet makes
complete sense really. Just gotta stop eating my breads lol
Lost 10 pounds first week, love it
very good and effective video.
Work on your left arm brother!
Likeeen!!!!
grains are bad? Rice has been part of our diet for centuries :/
Paleo science doesn’t make sense. The fat you eat is the fat you eat is the
fat you wear. Carb up and go vegan!
Brad along with Loren Cordain state that we need to eat as close to
possible to what our ancestors ate.. ok here goes.. Our ancestors would
have eaten wild freshly caught meat which means a far healthier leaner
meat such as up to 5 – 7 times less fat with no added hormones and caught
in it’s natural environment which is completely different to the animals we
eat today, they did not take supplements and they did not eat meat from a
shop with use by date and preservatives with added salt etc. Our ancestors
did not eat breakfast / dinner and evening meals of meat, fats, veggies
and a little fruit year round, our ancestors would have maybe eaten once
daily and occasionally twice along with days when they were hungry. They
were also more active, gathering fuel, food and medicinal plants daily but
with no guarantee of success. Mankind today and at anytime in history is
not designed to eat both meat and fat constantly throughout the day along
with supplements. if you wanna be a real strong dude both mentally and
physically like our ancestors then you should have at least 16 hours in
each day when you are not digesting food ( this is were the magic happens /
repairing and rebuilding the body at a cellular level ) the other 8 hours
is when you should get you food. Our ancestors did not discuss foods or
get their weekly groceries from the local store, no way, their lifestyles
were totally different in many ways. Stop looking for the elixir of life
through a magic diet cause it ain’t happening folks. Be wise and eat clean
… eat foods that require little digestion and are light and colourful and
full of fibre, then you will be a real man. remember this .. ” the foods
that appear weak will make you strong, and the foods that appear strong
will make you weak ” this will always be the case… I follow no diet at
all, I just eat light and clean
Looking for the cookbook Brad talks about in this video. Searched online
and no cookbooks from Brad comes up. Where can I buy “Eat Clean Live Lean”
from Brad?
+Rebecca Foster This PaIeo Recipe book-brand new paIeo cookbook was
deveIoped by way of physicaI fitness enthusiast named Sebastien NoeI.
Sebastien experienced quite a few health problems that will motivated them
to research just how he or she could enhance his eating plan along with
hereafter his health and fitness. He realized that wiII going back for you
to basic principles using the PaIeo eating plan was the soIution, aIong
with continued to generate the particuIar menu guide.
Live Lean!
The paleo diet is very hard to stick with, but the health benefits are
WORTH the initial struggle and habit change.
DO YOU HAVE LINKS/COPIES OF THE RESEARCH YOU VIEWED THAT ALLOWED YOU TO
COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE PALEO DIET IS THE BEST DIET FOR WEIGHT
LOSS???? CHEERS
+Marie Josèphe Ok l assume you are here to know about The PaIeo Recipe book
written by Sebastien NoeI because it is the best among the aII paleo recipe
books in the online market, before l start the paIeo recipe book review Iet
me know you a short description of “PaIeolithic diet” or “PaIeo diet”, you
may noticed that too many heaIth diseases Iike autoimmune diseases,
obesity, diabetes, heart probIem, cancer and many more were hardIy ever
seen some years back. But now you see maximum people around you like your
family members, relative and friends having this kind of sickness. There is
a big relation between this kind of diseases and the food we eat now. To
rescue from this problem and changing the way you and your family eat,
Paleo is the best way you can foIIow.
quick and straight to the point. Love how you explain the Paleo diet, you
have me wanted to try it. Thank you.
+Sara Price Foods incIuding beef aIong with veggies are generaIIy most
significant from the PaIeo diet pIan pyramid – there after berry, crazy
aIong with berry. Dairy, sweets aIong with aImost aII prepared ingredients
are generaIIy away. So that you can picture preciseIy why Iots of peopIe
are empIoying the dietary pIan to further improve their particuIar heaIth
insurance & shed weight. 🙂
Paleo has very strong merits, if not abused by its followers as an excuse
to eat fried meat and eggs every day. Putting aside the caveman, just
going as far back as your great grandparents would exclude 90 percent of
the food today, everything was organic and meat back then was more fatty
but obesity did not exist, heart attacks were rare and cancer was a disease
solely for the elderly.
However. there are over a billion Chinese people who live longer than their
western counterparts and have the lowest rates of fatal diseases in the
world, who may dispute the grain argument with regards to rice. Let’s also
not forget the dozens of overseas Chinese students in western universities
that are outstripping their western counterparts.
I CAN HONESTLY SAY I HAVE NEVER FELT BETTER ON A HIGH CARB LOW FAT LOW SALT
VEGAN DIET
Hey thnx 4 commenting and yeah i knew that but im a noob so yeah lol
Great Explanation!! Simple and understandable.
And what was the caveman life expectancy?
I’m starting this next week. This is informative and great.
So, what about seasonings?
Sprouted grain bread or zekel bread is good for you, it’s actually alkaline
as well. The problem with the grains most people are eating is that they
are GMO with round up in them. Sprouted grain bread and and Quinoa are
great grains. But regular grains like rice if sprouted or soaked in water
for at least 8 hours will be good to eat, it will make the grain more
easily digested causing less inflammation, same thing should go for seeds
and nuts soak them in water for 8 hours, you activate the life inhibitor
enzymes , this will make nuts and seeds more nutritious and easier to
absorb nutrients, not to mention making digestion easier. Any thoughts

Eggs don’t swim,run, or fly, there also not green however a chicken that
lays the eggs does, so this then makes it ok to eat burgers to then I guess
🙂
Thanks for the great video … very cool and informative .. if you are
single living in the city working all-the-time and always on the Go can you
do this “diet” eating on the run eating out at restaurants all of the time
and eating convenience foods to go etc. … ? Thank you very much. – Rory

What is your opinion on Almond Milk? I usually buy the unsweetened vanilla
kind…thanks.
How can anyone follow this diet AND be sure they are getting enough
calories?
Not sure cavemen were taller than we are today.
what about my cellucor whey protein and quest bars?
couldnt the problem be more about sedentary lifestyle?
So loli pops with green dye? Jk
which researchers? How did they researched it?
One week of being on the Paleo diet however the only meat I am eating is
fish. Who wants to join me?
Hi there!
I m about to try the paleo diet and this video was very helpful 🙂
Cheese is one of weaknesses so I know it s not gonna be easy, but at the
same time, every time I cut off cheese ( dairy in general) and carbs, that
s when I get the best results so even if I have one cheat meal x week, I
would like to eat paleo the rest of the week.
I just subscribed to your channel, keep up the good work 🙂
been doing the Paleo diet thanks to my sister who is obsessed with CROSSFIT
and what a difference in my lifestyle…energy..feel better..getting
lean…and it’s simplistic..something ANYONE can follow..LOVE IT.
So I read the “WHEAT BELLY BOOK” about a month ago and I completely stop
eating wheat and grains. People started asking me how I lost or was loosing
weight and they all thought I was doing the Paleo lifestyle. However I had
never research it till now. I’m glad I came across your video. I’m
committed to becoming Paleo for life. The transition has been easy. I lost
about 20 pounds of belly fat and feel so much healthier.
What i really find difficult with some cook books is there are so many
meals to prepare. Being a mother, wife and working its very hard to get all
the meals sorted.this is the main reason why i dont stick to the diets,
really frustrating. Any simple, fast, easy recipes that does not chain me
to the kitchen?
nice gay boy
at 1:45 he says grains were never a part of the diet. Pls see scientist
here who has different facts to share https://youtu.be/BMOjVYgYaG8 .
However I would like to add that I am still going to give this a try
hi , I am a vegeterian and eat no egg , fish or meat …. would you please
suggest what to try for protein
Hi. I’m an asian girl who is interested in paleo diet.
I can agree on everything you said, except that you said about the grain. I
eat steamed brown rice every breakfast, so I wonder if it’s not appropriate
when going on a paleo diet.
Do you have any videos about a keto diet?
2:36 – “Mother’s breast milk is designed to…”
Whoops! Human mothers have genetic instructions to produce breast milk.
Humans are not ‘designed to’ do anything. Nonetheless, most people are
culturally programmed to defy their own genetic instructions (i.e., weaning
off breast milk early and incorporating foreign-species dairy).
On the one hand there is an effort to try to differentiate the Paleo diet
from standard American Diets by contrasting it with ‘processed food’.
Cooking is the most popular form of food processing, though. After
transitioning away from the SAD diet, why stop at Paleo – a recent window
in history marked by denaturing food? Cooking creates deadly carcinogens,
reduces most nutrients, and misfolds proteins. Beyond the Paleo era
(Miocene epoch), direct ancestors co-evolved within equatorial Africa,
digesting raw fruit most effectively. To this day raw fruit is inversely
associated with digestive conditions associated with cooked products,
especially cooked meat.
Talking about the habits of cavemen is going too far. Paleo is just a
modern way of eating without the connection to cavemen, let’s be real…..
How are you supposed to get adequate calcium for height development? Please
help I’m 15
This guy has changed his tune in the past couple years. I was just
watching a few of his 2012 videos where he endorses non Paleo foods such as
oats, greek yogurt, real butter, whey, cottage cheese or sprouted bread.
Maybe he is evolving. Oh wait, Paleo dieters do not believe in evolution.
I am ALL FOR paleo nutrition, but this approach in this video is giving the
worst of the uninformed genetic and evolutionary oversimplifications that
smell of “diet fad trend” and give the concept a bad name. Google on Mat
Lalonde and find out some of the complexities and intelligent reasons for
changing to this nutritional life style.
Dairy is my weakness 🙁
can you post and share a meal plan?
Well said, I’m excited to start this life change
what if you can’t afford food like that. As everyone knows the healthy food
costs an arm and a leg … the shit food cost much much less! I am a single
father and I need to change my diet/life…. but I may not be able to
afford it. Any suggestions (useful ones only … no trolls making dumb ass
comments)
just make clear, im not against paleo.. i think its good and im following
it.. what i dont like however is everyone always says “..our ancestors
didnt duffer from this or that disease..”
first of all.. how exactly do you know that.. second.. i think in the past
not man people lived up to their 40s anyways.. other than that.. im all
aboard ;]
Wowww this way of living has really blown away thank u for putting this

Stop killing creatures for eating. there is no reason for doing It, the
planet earth provides us with a lot of pure foods such as grains,
vegetables and fruits, even some animals can share there milk with us, but
please, stop killing them,
Cow milk for humans? Who came up with that idea.. lol. Great vid,
definitely starting this diet.
What about whey protein powder, I know its processed, but eating enough
protien is hard 1g. Per 1lb., lean mass. Help
My taught. Paleo I think is the best “diet” out there for new beginners and
intermediate fitness conscious people. Bet it only comes as the 2nd best
eating lifestyle choice. I think many people should start with paleo
although I believe the best eating lifestyle is called “moderation.”
Nothing should ever be omitted such as milk, beans, and everything else. I
believe this level of eating is for advanced fitness/health people.
Obviously you totally need to omit transfat, that is COMPLETELY man made.
Does not exist naturally and plenty of ingredients. Yet you can still have
everything just with complete discipline and moderation. This is a belief
with more to it then just a mere paragraph.
This knowledge comes from my bachelor’s education in Dietetics and personal
recent research. I am as healthy and fit as can be with my approach. Thank
you for reading my approach.
I’m new to Paleo. How does the body burn enough glucose and taxi it to the
muscles if your diet restricts high glycemic index carbs?
How cave man from Europe could eat sweat potatoes? I need an explanation
Good stuff here: https://robbwolfpaleoguides.com/?hop=paleoweigh
i gotta say i could probably kick your butt because i eat 20 eggs a day!
top that, superman! i’m more paleo that you’ll ever be! i killed my
neighbors dog and ate it for breakfast with 20 eggs over medium. i almost
got arrested but the cops let me free because they didnt want me to get
diarrhea in the police car. yeah i got diarrhea what’s it ta you? this is
MY life quit judging phony-punk. great video!
Frank Medrano – Superhuman Bodyweight Workout Domination get some carbs
FRUIT, wholegrains and legumes to give you energy. You dont burn fat, you
start burning protein which is why you get ketones in your urine and your
pee smells like peardrops fat and protein are inefficient energy sources so
your athletic performance will suffer. Do you see any endurance athletes on
Paleo? Tour de France was bananas. Sports Model Binges On 3lb bowl of Pasta
Reaction. Being inactive makes you fat and carbs give you energy to be
active
Very nice video , What is the paleo diet
wait… so i shouldn’t be eating whole grain oats… like oatmeal?? just
wondering and wanna be sure i should get rid of it… if anyone could
comment back and explain… would be much appreicated
can you drink coffee on paleo diet?
With all of the information out there talking about how red meat is bad for
you. How is this diet so successful? Beef often times has extra hormones
and whatnot from their production process. How are we to know that this
won’t negatively affect our systems in the long run?
thank you
I dont doubt that paleo diet could be effective but a paleo mans daily
routine was difficult and hard!!! so i believe it is stupid to compare
ourselves with them no matter how close to them we are. It is sad that NO
one ever refers to Greeks! Especially Spartans who where the first actually
having a diet for having a clean strong body!!! When i studied them i found
that there diet was consisting of lots of grains, seeds, red fruits
(berries, grapes, citrus fruits) and veggies! But grains and olive where
mostly in there diet. Especially Spartans used grains and dairy in their
diet a lot as they were excellent farmers also apart from amazing warriors.
And they were healthy, strong and lean. So dont worry about grains or
dairy. Sorry Brad, dont want to be rude but paleo diet has a difference of
100000 years from us so i dont think grains or dairy go out of us because
they didnt discovered it back then 🙂 you are amazing man and you got
amazing videos here. Keep up the good work and study the ancient greek
diet. You will love it 😉

This explains my intense craving for sweets every time I try and eat high
protein. But what about protein bars?

Brad so I guess this means no oatmeal as well??
No dairy..??
I have to respectfully disagree…
Been doing Paleo now for almost 4 years
And I’ve gotten leaner and lost those miserable last 5 lbs
With Grass fed butter and organic heavy cream
Can’t
Do
W/O
Them
G/F Butter is really really good for you
That is all
Will eating foreskins and human organs make me fat?
can you combine intermittent fasting and the paleo diet ?
Is it possible to eat cheese while I’m on a paleo/fat loss diet. I tend to
eat a stick of cheese after my lunch salad as my daily treat. Is this
recommended?
Hi Brad, I’m on my 6th day of the Paleo Diet and wanted to ask you about
something. My period is coming up next week and I’ve had a couple of
hardcore cravings, I found myself standing in front of three Dunkin’ Donuts
but I didn’t do anything, however is getting nerve-wracking and hectic.
Despite of the period situation and stuff, should I hang in there? Or try
some of your recipes, like the “protein ice cream”. Thank you.
i eat paleo for only 3 weeks now and i already lost 4-5 pounds and feel
better, i got way more energy then before. and its easy to eat like that if
you like to cook
Yo Brad, how do you feel about Muscle Milk protein powder?? Thanks.
Stick with this and I promise you’ll be satisfied in 30 days. By summer
you’ll be hella stoked you did. If you need a workout plan, let me know. If
not, any way you chose to go, good luck.
All you need is (1) Determined, Positive, Motivating thoughts (2) Good diet
(3) Straight bar (Olympic bar works best for me) and weights for bar. Once
you master these moves you won’t need a rack to hold you weights because
the Deadlift builds your entire body just about which allows you to pick up
the weight. Then the Hang Clean, which allows you to pull the weight up to
put you in position to Shoulder press. It’s almost a perfect Trio.
I’d focus on proper form for All and Every exercise. Also, stick with
lighter weights until your comfortable with adding more. Cardio is very
important, Brad hits some good pointers in his other videos for more in
depth.
@12chapiman, there’s no need to cut anymore weight at all, for starters
bro. Follow Brads diet plan and you’ll 100% guarantee lose the fat and put
on lean muscle combined with sticking to these few exercises: pull-ups,
push-ups, deadlift, hang clean, and strict standing shoulder press.
quick question can i have brown rice for carbs during the day?
Hi Brad this is a random question but what are your views on agave nectar,
is it any different then sugar or is it actually good for you ? Thank you
God bless
I need some help; I’m 6’2-6’3 and I weigh 172lbs currently. My body
structure isn’t wide, I have a 34 in waist I believe; however, I am still
fat. I am aware 172lbs is underweight. I’ve been cutting, I used to be
182lbs and cut down to 172. But I realized that losing 10 lbs didn’t meet
my goal. I still feel uncomfortable with my shirt off. So at this point I
don’t know whether to “lean bulk” or cut, because if I cut I’ll eventually
get to like 165… and if I bulk I might become fat? I have a lot of fat in
my chest and belly. Anyone’s comments and help would be greatly
appreciated.
nice video dude, would you say carbs PWO has any benefit, cheers dude.
I only try and use the paleo twice a week.I found that when I went too long
I had huge binges and I actually had kidney and liver damage from eating
too much protein.My muscles were flat and smaller even though my stomach
was smaller my size was gone.I had to get medicine and went to countless
doctors at the hospital to help my kidney and liver fix it self.But I still
love the idea of paleo
But anciant people not always had an oppotunity to eat every single day. No
wonder that they were lean.
So I can’t eat oatmeal for breakfast??? And Can I have banana??
Does that mean no quinoa,raw almonds,red,black beans, lentils,garbanzos,
whole oats, raw peanuts, green peas, yellow peas, all these foods are no go
for paleo?
Thank you so much for this… I’ve been thinking about going Paleo from
hearing so many good things about it, except I didn’t know exactly what it
was. Very informative as always, thanks Brad 🙂
why cant find u in instagram?
Hi Brad
Thanks for the vid. I mostly agree with what you are saying. I think the paleo way of eating is hugely beneficial for overweight, sedentary people who do nothing except lie on the couch all day. For athletes, not so much. Active people need some carbs. Your brain requires glucose to function. The point is to eat whole foods as you state and to cut out refined carbs, sugar and other crap. I fail to see how eating brown rice, oats and potatoes (in moderation) can be bad for active, fit people. I’m generally not in favour of cutting out any food group.. The paleo diet doesn’t take into account genetics, how active a person is, what your system is able to tolerate and so forth. In other words, one size does not necessarily fit all. You should listen to your body and find what works for you. Just saying …
I am drinking +,,,,,,,,,weight loss green store tea,,,,,,,,,,,,,+ before
,,,,my every meal as recommended. Besides the really pleasant and smooth
taste, I noticed that this tea fixes my bowel problem, so constipation
doesn’t bother me any more. I’ve lost 8 LB gives me great energy no need
for energy drinks anymore. Thanks ,,,,,, weightlossgreenstore,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Lots of people who eat grains and legumes have great bodies and health.
Plus any seed or nut has the same issues as grains (phytates, lectins).
Yes, even almonds, so why do you eat them? Ahh right, too tasty to give
them up.
im so glad i subscribed to your channel! When i subscribed your video
quality wasn’t the best but i was listening to what you had to say! You’ve
come so far im happy for you! Very informative and very entertaining!
This sounds like the Atkins diet.
Great video. I’m a food engineer and you can’t imagine how tough it is to
make people understand this. Before this video I did not know that what I
knew as the perfect human diet had an actual name, you learn something
everyday. I agree 99% with you in everything but the dairy part.
I started this type of diet by reducing the amount of carbs in the meal
instead of cutting them out completely, It makes it a bit easier to
transition. Its more of a mental thing than physical. If you can fight the
cravings you are going downhill already.
Keep up the good work
Great video! Question: Why are legumes bad for us? I love my peanut butter
(just straight peanuts, no sugar or salt or anything).
Follow up question: what do you think of intermittent fasting?
Thanks!
been on keto for a while but im switching to this. whats a good snack ?
Bard, since you took on the Paleo diet, what are some of the changes you
noticed in your body? You were rather lean to begin with – any changes?
My way of eating. I love it!
Love the paleo style of eating, but it’s difficult to leave ingrained
habits. I’ve started with paleo supper, then added caveman’s lunch, so now
it’s a must to incorporate that paleo dinner ASAP.
Love it.
I’m surprised you never mention “ketosis.” I know you’re describing it, but
maybe I missed it in another video. Just wondering.
Great video brad I have shared with my network , clear focused and easy to
watch
You have great muscles Brad. I need your help with these questions.
What about bad smelling breath, body odour, and farts/poo from high protein?
What about other lean fitness models on all sorts of macros?
What about saturated fat/cholesterol causing heart disease?
What about all the nutrients in a variety of fruits, grains, veggies and
beans?
Honestly I don’t think I need the Paleo diet. I mean granted I still avoid
eating processed foods, but I don’t think I should restrict myself too
much. Right now I’m pretty lean and trying to maintain my weight. So
yeah…
It may be inaccurate to say that cave-men were tall.
Paleo recipes, please?
fiberous veggies what if I eat greens whouldnt that be a fiberious veggies?
and dont things like oatmeal offer fiber 2?
dont grains come out the ground and sum nuts arent green just trying to
understand? and when u say carbs u mean starchy carbs right? like bread
pasta rice. ppl confuse the hell outta me when they say they dont eat carbs
becasue veggies are slow carbs right?
the cave man ate that way bcuz he had no choice if all he cud find that day
was veggies he ate that if all he cud find was wild game he ate that as we
eveolved and had MORE choices then we pick and chose what to eat. an
example when u were 2 if u didnt have a nutritionally sound parent guess
what u ate what they GAVE u. even tho it might have been bad u had no
choice so it was kinda like the cave man. and as far as his leaness he was
hunting moving and being chased by big ass predators so if ur runnin ur ass
off to save ur life ud be lean too. lol I kinda eat like this the only time
I eat any starchy carbs is in the mornin like oatmeal w whey protien or a
piece of toast with WHOLE eggs. the rest of the time I eat a lean protien
and veggies and 2 servings of friut a day. great vid
no matter what u eat. u are gonna use fat as main energy source while doing
low intensity exercise and use carbs while doing high intensity exercise.
quick question, do you recommend mixing whey protein with water or milk?
hey brad do you ever have PB2, strawberry preserves, or whey protein??
thanks for the info man!!
paleo sounds like a low carb diet
Is it suitable to rid belly fat?
