The Paleo Diet, also known as the paleolithic diet or caveman diet, is based on the types of foods that was most likely eaten by our pre-agricultural human ancestors. This simply means eating organic fruits, vegetables, wild fish and grass-fed meats, while omitting all types of processed foods in our diet such as grains, legumes and dairy.

It is believed that we can live a healthier lifestyle if we eat these types of foods that our ancestors used to consume. Thus reducing our chances to acquire degenerative diseases such as cancer and diabetes, which have been brought upon our prolonged exposure of eating processed foods.

According to Loren Cordain Ph.D, a recognized author and one of the leading specialist in the Paleo diet, believes that there are seven fundamental characteristics of our pre-agricultural human ancestors which can help improve our overall health and reduce the risk to chronic diseases.

Switching to a paleo diet is of course easier said than done, considering that we have always been taught that eating in moderation and a mix of all food groups is better than depriving ourselves from the foods we regularly eat.

But if you look closer to the effects of the food we eat as compared to how people used to eat centuries ago, back then they did not have to deal with modern day diseases that we have now.

Eating colorful fresh fruits and vegetables, select fish and grass-fed meats is a whole lot better than eating high fructose snacks and canned meats that is piling up in your local supermarkets.

So what can you eat on a Paleo diet? Below is the list of food you can eat:

• Fish or Seafood
• Grass-fed Meats
• Fresh Fruits and Vegetables
• Seeds and Nuts
• Healthy Oils such as olive, avocado, coconut, walnut, flaxseed, macademia

If you want to maintain a healthier body, combined with a regular lemonade detox plan, this can greatly help optimize your health and prolong your life.
