Recommended Reading
I had a very interesting discussion today with a dietician that allowed me to apply some of the knowledge that I have gained over the last 6 months. Shortly after that I made a trip to the grocery store with my husband and ended up in quite the debate over the cost of eating Paleo vs Clean. If you haven't yet read the following books I highly recommend that you do so. Make sure that you go into any debates or discussions armed with the proper knowledge to defend what you believe in!
This is an excellent book if you are learning about Paleo and doing some of your own research. Robb Wolf goes into the science behind it all and explains why Paleo works. There are recipes and exercise prescriptions in the last few chapters if you prefer to skip the science and leave that for later but I highly recommend reading the entire book. Even though he does go into 'geek speak' as he calls it Robb puts the information into everyday language and uses humour to help get his message accross. I took notes as this helps me to retain the information.
Lots of recipe and meal ideas to take away the 'I don't know what to eat though' arguement.
This is the first book that I read on the Paleo Diet. It does go quite far into the science of Paleo so be prepared to work your brain. I took notes with this book too as I found it to get somewhat heavy in some places. As an athlete I found this book very helpful with meal planning and eating strategies for specific types and different levels of training. There are some great charts, my favourite is one showing the deficiencies of grains as compared to veggies and fruit.
