Chances are you’ve heard of the Paleo lifestyle/diet. It is no secret that it’s a growing trend, which many around us are embracing. The Paleo lifestyle means eating real food with an emphasis on humanely raised meat, organic vegetables, and good quality fats like organic coconut oil, fats from pasture-raised animals, and grass-fed butter/ghee. That means no grains! And in some cases, depending on which Paleo eater you are talking to, no dairy. The other focus of the Paleo diet is to incorporate organ meats and fermented foods like sauerkraut and kombucha (the latter are for the benefits of probiotics).
I’ve personally heard of many people who’ve been able to put their autoimmune disorders in remission after switching to a Paleo diet. The belief is that disease can start in the gut, so when you remove gut irritating foods like grains, legumes, and dairy, as well as soy and sugar, you can heal your gut and heal your body. I’ve always said if you feel better without eating gluten or grains or dairy (or another food group)…then by all means avoid it!
So today I am excited to introduce some great resources for those interested in trying out a Paleo lifestyle…three books from the bestselling authors and creators of The Food Lovers Kitchen, Bill Staley and Hayley Mason:

I have had a few friends who have done the Paleo diet, and I frequently would ask about what they were eating and not eating. Many times I was left disappointed because their meals and diet sounded so bland and they seemed to eat the same thing all the time. I would definitly be interested in the 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking to help try this out! Seems like I would not be disappointed.

I would love the Gather I suspect. I have been working on converting our house into an unprocessed, low grain, organic, green, family for awhile now and I still get hungup when it comes to entertaining... which we do a LOT!

I would really like to try the 30 days of Paleo! To me having a guide that breaks down the shopping, cooking, and recommended reading, is the best way for my family and myself to try something new.
Megan says
My daughter was just asking me what I know about this style of eating. My answer was "not much".
I think The 30 Day Guide would be a nice resource to have in the kitchen.
Thank you!
