Your Space - Caveman Nutrition: Is This The Right Way To Eat For Fat Loss
John Williams, Ph.D., has degrees in archaeology and anthropology. His research and fieldwork has focused on the Paleolithic and Neolithic of the “Old World”, which basically means the Stone Age of Europe, Africa and Asia. John has always had an interest in nutrition, which actually works quite well within prehistoric studies, because our past was one big food quest.

According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product
approaches for athletes, fat loss, and health?

iet is one of the easiest ways to boost your metabolism. Recent studies have shown that as little as 3 grams of combined EPA and DHA (both omega-3 fatty acids) can speed your metabolic rate by about 400 k/cal per day.
These long-chain fatty acids also have a host of great health benefits, including brain health, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, better sugar management, and more. So by doing something as simple as popping a couple of fish oil caps with each meal, you can live a longer, leaner, brainier life!

CB: John, do you have any other superfoods that you think absolutely must be in everyone’s diet?
JW: Fish oil would be one, for the reasons given in the previous answer. Another must-have in everyone’s diet is spinach. Among the leafy greens, spinach offers some of the best benefits in terms of vitamins and micronutrients. It’s chock full of important phytochemicals, vitamin A, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorous, iron, folate and potassium.
But that’s not all! Spinach is also one of the most alkaline foods availa

I also think that most people could benefit from simply increasing their daily intake of fresh veggies and fruit. I’m not talking fruit juice or even V8, but the real deal: every color and variety of vegetables and fruit that you know of. This isn’t groundbreaking news, but fresh fruit and vegetables provide an enormous amount of

Another food of the grain variety that I think many people would benefit from is quinoa (pronounced “KEEN-oowa”). It’s a South American grain domesticated by the predecessors of the Incas that grows on a plant that looks a lot like spinach. So it’s a “leafy grain” rather than a grass grain such as wheat and corn.

Low carb diets certainly have their benefits for many people, but there is absolutely no excuse for avoiding a big serving of broccoli for fear of a few extra carbs. Unless it’s drenched in margarine, broccoli (or insert any leafy green here) can do nothing but good.

JW: Let me address the last question first: The ideal situation is to learn how to eat to maximize both your performance and health goals, and simply eat more or less according to how much muscle you want to gain versus how much fat you want to lose. In other words, eating to get lean and eating to stay lean would differ only in overall calories consumed.

So, how do we eat to get (and stay) lean? I have a few simple rules, like caloric balance, sufficient protein, lots of whole veggies and fruit, no processed carbs outside of the post-workout window, balanced fats – and let’s not forget the other side of the coin: activity (preferably a mixture of heavy lifting and some sort of cardio).

My good friend John Berardi has spoken extensively on how some people have a tendency to replace hard lifting, and even a healthy diet, with the acquisition of knowledge. These folks have mediocre or even poor physiques, yet all of their time is spent in pursuit of the holy grail of fitness and nutrition knowledge. How many carbs does that 5.8 oz serving of artichoke have, and how will this affect insulin levels? Who cares, just eat the darn thing

JW: That’s right, Craig. We archaeologists love to make fun of trendy “Paleo-diets” and books like Neanderthin. There was no single paleo-diet; people during the Paleolithic ate whatever they could get their hands on, and what they ate depended upon what region of the world they were living. I recently talked with Erik Trinkaus, a paleoanthropologist and the world’s premier expert on Neanderthals, and he summarized his thoughts

Also, our ancestors got a lot more omega-3’s from wild plants, animals, and fish. All in all, it looks like we’ve evolved on a diet with a good amount of monounsaturated fats from nuts, seeds, and animals, as well as a nearly equal amount of omega-6’s to omega-3’s. Tons of studies have shown that an inflated omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is contributes to heart disease, diabetes, and obesity
