Praise for
THE PALEO DIET

The Paleo Diet
helps you lose fat, improve your health, and feel great. Why? Because the Paleo Diet works with your genetics to help you realize your natural birthright of vibrant health and wellness. My book’s success is due in large part to the revolutionary solutions provided by Professor Loren Cordain and his Paleo Diet message.”
—Robb Wolf, author of the bestselling
The Paleo Solution
 
 
“Loren Cordain’s extensive research demonstrates how modern westernized diets drastically depart from the original diet humans consumed for millions of years. In
The Paleo Diet
and
The Paleo Diet Cookbook
, Dr. Cordain shows how diets high in grains, dairy, vegetable oils, salt, and refined sugars are at odds with our genetic legacy and then shares his uncomplicated strategy for losing weight and getting healthy.”
—Arthur De Vany, Ph.D., author of
The New Evolution Diet
 
 
“We found Dr. Loren Cordain’s scientific research indispensable when we wrote
The 30-Day Low-Carb Diet Solution
. Cordain provides the most compelling arguments we’ve seen for why a protein-rich diet is the diet we were born to eat. His weight-loss plan simply works and his recipes are simply terrific.”
—Michael R. Eades, M.D., and Mary Dan Eades, M.D., authors of
Protein Power, The 6-Week Cure for the Middle-Aged Middle
, and
The Low-Carb Comfort Food Cookbook
 
 

The Paleo Diet
is at once revolutionary and intuitive. Its prescription provides without a doubt the most nutritious diet on the planet. Beautifully written,
The Paleo Diet
takes us from the theory to the day-to-day practice of the native human diet.”
—Jennie Brand-Miller, Ph.D., coauthor of the bestselling The Glucose Revolution series
 
 
“Dr. Loren Cordain’s approach to nutrition is logically compelling, readily understood, and at the cutting edge of health science. Not all scientists can translate their concepts into a straightforward, accessible format, but Cordain has accomplished this feat brilliantly.”
—S. Boyd Eaton, M.D., lead author of
The Paleolithic Prescription
 
 
“Finally someone has figured out the best diet—a modern version of the diet the human race grew up eating. Dr. Loren Cordain’s easy-to-follow diet plan reminds us that the healthiest foods are the simplest ones.”
—Jack Challem, author of
The Inflammation Syndrome
,
Stop Prediabetes Now
, and
Syndrome X
 
 
“In a world where we’re surrounded with information overload on dieting, this is a commonsense and effective weight-control approach that’s easy to follow.”
—Fred Pescatore, M.D., author of
The Hamptons Diet
and
The Allergy and Asthma Cure
 
 

The Paleo Diet
lays out the basic nutrition plan not only for weight loss and good health but also for peak performance in athletic competition. It works.”
—Joe Friel, author of
The Triathlete’s Training Bible
