Useless without pics....or at least a rundown of the diet ;D

You eat what was avaiable to cavemen. Meats, fruits, veggies, and nuts. No grains, milk, or process foods. They claim more stable sugar levels, and longer life.

It probably does work. Most diets work provided people stick to them.

Are you a caveman??
No?
Then why eat like one?
It's bullshit.

The Paleo Diet is the way to go.
-
Its in my opinion the best diet out there, there is a logical explanation why it works best. Only it is not very easy to maintain and expensive because you can not eat bread, milk, cereals, rice, things like that.

Seems like it could be ok.
But then again, eating a balanced and healthy diet is what most people should aim for. Theres no need to follow a paticular type of diet (bb'ers aside of course), if you just want to be healthy. It's very simple really, which makes you wonder why this world is so fucking overweight ::)

The most important aspect of eating is enjoying it.
The sheer masochistic stupidity of most "diets" never ceases to amaze me.

Thats true, but telling people that "enjoying it" is the most important aspect of food often leads to over-indulgence. It may sound obvious to us, but the stats show that it isn't so obvious to some people.

Yes, but I think the biggest problem for people who enjoy food and over-indulge is that they only hear about all those diets which take away everything they like to eat. The most important thing is to tell them that they can still enjoy eating, even when on a weight loss diet. It makes absolutely no sense to put someone on a diet of foods he hates to eat. Nobody can maintain such a diet for very long and nobody should IMO.

When i say i keep a strict diet, everyone thinks i only eat chicken and rice 3 times a day.
In fact, i eat everything i want to, i just keep the ratio of clean, healthy, organic foods very high. It tastes better, i feel better as well

But everyone can drink coffee and take a dump.

No; it is the Affrikans flag/standard kept during the Anglo-Boer wars of the late 19th century.

I was just joking, i didn't know what flag it was, but it's not the buddhist flag.

May be, why not? Or some Gnosticists, who just stole their beliefs from buddhism and mixed it with christianity. ;D ;D

I am realising that many Japanese kanji bear little if any resemblance to their Chinese counterparts. A Chinese friend taught me a few new ones and I looked them up in Japanese and they are totally different.

It's not just that the Chinese have simplified them but also that the same ones have different meaning; the Japanese kanji for 'destroy' means 'bad' in Chinese...

There's a lot of kanji that have different meanings in chinese and japanese.
They are two different languages, the japanese imported chinese characters about 1300 years ago, they have gone a different route from that time.
fun fact: By looking at todays japanese readings of a chinese character, you can estimate what the pronounciation must have been in china 1000 years ago.

I am still waiting to see any data that indicates that meat enhances more than hinders health. Meat is an outstanding source of complete protein, but there is no evidence whatsoever that it enhances health more than it hinders it.
Paleolithic Man was hardly that healthy. The average lifespan was 28 years. Compare this to the average lifespan of primarilly vegetarian/fruitarian peoples like the Hunza from Nepal or the Georgians, where centenarians are a dime a dozen, and you will understand.
Sure, the skeletons of Paleolithic Man shows strong bones and healthy teeth, and the marks of perfurations on their bodies indicates they died more from wear and tear from hunting/warring than from artherosclerosis, diabetes. However, the reason why they had strong bones and teeth was not because they ate lots of meat, which is actually bad for the Calcium deposits of the bones, but because they didn't eat refined sugar, which is much worse than meat as a causal factor in ostheoporosis. The reason why they didn't have heart disease is not because they ate meat, but because they didn't eat refined sugar and flour, which raises blood tryglyceride levels far more than than the fat in meat. Conclusion: Paleolithic Man was relatively healthy because of the foods he didn't eat, not because of the foods he ate. If Paleolithic Men stopped with the meat and ate a diet of raw fruits and vegetables, their health would be as far superior to what they had as their health is compared to someone who gets most of their calories from refined sugar and flour. The data is incomplete which leads us to flase assumptions and conclusions.

Clearly, cavemen didn't take quality dumps...
