Principles of The Cave Man Diet:

Have you ever really looked at the eating habits of the animal kingdom? Most animals, insects and even fish have a very simple diet. They eat the same types of food every meal, every day. They either eat meat, or vegetables, or fruit. There are very few omnivores in the animal kingdom that can eat from more than one of these food groups and even fewer that can eat from all three. Man is at the top of the food chain and is an omnivore that can eat from all three or these food groups. The problem with our diet is that we've added another food group to the list and that is why we are getting fat.

The Cave Man Diet is based on the idea that man was designed to eat a certain way. If you believe in Creation, then what was the diet in The Garden of Eden? Meat, vegetables, fruit and water were the diet of Adam and Eve. If you believe in Darwinism, then man evolved from the cave man and his diet was meat, vegetables, fruit and water. No matter what you believe in, what was the diet of early mankind? Meat, vegetables, fruit, and water is what they ate. That is what our bodies were designed to eat.

DIETS DO NOT WORK! That is as plain as I can say it. I'm 43 years old and have been on many diets. Each time I loose some weight and then gain it back. The Cave Man Diet isn't a diet where you have to get special foods; it is plain regular foods you get from the grocery store. They are everyday foods that we all know are good for us. Beef, chicken, and fish are probably a part your every day diet already. The problem is that it's wrapped in a bun or fried. Adding vegetables and fruit to your daily meals just makes good sense.

This is about a lifestyle change. This is about putting down the sugary food and the breads and eating basic food like people were meant to do. The cave man was a hunter-gatherer. He hunted his meat, gathered his vegetables and fruit, and ate with his tribe. Try cooking meat and some vegetables, and sitting down with your family for a meal. Nothing beats it.

**** Before starting any diet, consult with your doctor first. ****
I figure I better say that before some idiot tried to sue me.
