Paleo eating has:
- given me a love for nutritious food
- helped me break my addiction to carbs, sugars, and junk
- caused me become more adventurous towards foods I would never have tried before
- given me a nearly bomb-proof immune system. I have not had a full blown cold or flu in almost 2 years!
- made me a better, more creative cook
- evened out my moods and nearly rid me of depression
- made me more aware of how my body reacts to certain foods
- rid me of the cystic acne I suffered from PCOS
- given me the opportunity to share the benefits of a healthy diet with others, including some who have chronic illnesses
The paleo community is awesome because:
- it is largely made up of thinking people who care about the health of others
- detailed, valuable information is freely shared
- there are a lot of people who aren't afraid to call the others out on their dogmatic sh*t
- it is constantly changing in response to new research, which a lot of 'diet gurus' refuse to do
- there is a nearly infinite source of free, delicious recipes available
- paleo bloggers are really skilled at what they do. Beautiful photos, delicious recipes, thoughful posts, deconstructing research articles... love it!
