So many people seem to blame being overweight on a factor outside of their control. It's in their genes, it's hormonal, it's their metabolism. It can't be their diet, they eat wholemeal bread with margarine, cereal with skimmed milk and a low fat meals every day! Articles like this one in the Daily Mail (my […]
I love Kangaroo. Living in Australia it is a really cheap meat – and as kangaroos aren't farmed I know I'm getting good meat. Kangaroo goes really well with plum sauce. Unfortunately however the stone fruit season doesn't start for another month or two here, so I had to improvise for lunch today! I had […]
I love reading, in fact, reading is how I found out about Paleo almost two years ago. I’ve now amassed quite a big collection of Paleo Books. And my Amazon wishlist is just as long again! I learn so much on blogs and podcasts – but there is something about having a book in your […]
I really shouldn't read health supplements any more. They generally just annoy me. But I could resist. I found this gem in the Sunday Telegraph yesterday. Just before I ditched Paleo and went out to buy some soy and margarine, I thought I'd see if I could find out a bit more about the study. […]
Australians love their meat pies, apparently 260 million a year are eaten here. For a county with a population of just over 21 million, that’s a lot of pies! A meat pie just wouldn’t be the same without some sort of pastry. So I thought it was time to give the Paleo treatment to the […]
As I've mentioned before, my Marathon running house-mate is currently doing the Whole30 Paleo challenge with me. We’re on day 26, and it’s going fantastically, but I’ll tell you more about that in a future post. My house-mate is a marathon runner, so I've been particularly interested to see how Paleo affects his running performance […]
Last night was the fourth meet up of the Sydney Paleo group – and the third I’ve had the pleasure of attending. We met at a Korean Barbeque restaurant, tucked away down a side street, in the city centre. A few of us had met before and there were some new faces to meet. The […]
I always have good intentions of bringing a Paleo Lunch in to work with me. When I do, lunch is great. I take in leftovers from the previous evening, and reheat them at work. Or I take in slices of meat that I roasted at home and eat it with vegetables. But, there are often […]
I've started to eat Kangaroo regularly since I began my paleo lifestyle. Since Kangaroos aren't farmed in Australia, I know I'm getting free range meat from animals that have been eating a natural diet. Also, in Australia at least, Kangaroo meat is a cheap very accessible meat – which is a great help in offsetting […]
I was talking to an Australian Doctor at the Ancestral Health Symposium about finding grass fed meat in Australia. He was explaining to me that Australian meat is almost all grass fed, unlike America where grass fed meat is a lot harder to come by. Grass fed beef has a far better omega 6:omega 3 […]
