Very insightful talk. I've been living a Paleo lifestyle for 6 months now and can't begin to describe the benefits: increased energy, 20 pounds of overweight fat loss, better mental clarity, lowered my blood pressure out of the pre-hypertension range, etc.
A good summary of some of the reasons that paleo diets are likely to be better for some people than the "standard Amercan diet" ... worth watching and thinking about. Thanks for posting.
The Paleo patterned lifestyle works for me. Down by 30 lbs since January 2015. What's good about it? Satiety for several hours, Nourishing (vegetables and a bit of fruit), No Calorie Counting (unless you want to), Can be inexpensive per meal (you don't necessarily need range / grass fed). Improvement of blood pressure (at least for me). You can drink alcohol a little. And I did not need to scrunch around a fire and chat with Trog.
Paleo diet is the natural diet for humans but research shows they ate significantly less meat and eggs than what modern day Paleo guru's advocate. Real Paleo is a whole food diet mostly comprised of plants.
I enjoyed listening to this video, its more open-minded than many others I've listened to on diets, etc.. My personal experience with eating is, everything in moderation. I have done this for years, and I'm in good health, and look amazingly young for my age. I do prefer alot of salads, fruits, and vegetables, but do eat some fast food, and at hometown buffet weekly. I like food more, in its original state. I take no vitamin supplements or medications, other than ocassional pot once or twice a month. I don't smoke cigarettes anymore.. quit 30 yrs ago. and drink some wine ocassionally. And like a variety of foods, and ocassionaly dark chocolate. I do whole grains,prefer the taste of brown rice, and eat wheat, love corn and potatoes in all forms. Eat dairy, low fat milk cheese, love eggs, and seeds, and all types of nuts. My weight is the same as when I was 16 yrs old, and I am 74 yrs old now, and can easily pass for 45. I have never had face surgery, or any face fillers nothing. I don't do the gym, I do gardening and a few Isometric type exercises using my body weight, and hand mow my lawns front and back. The biggest key to my looking and feeling so good is I enjoy eating whatever I'm eating and doing, or else I don't eat it or do it, and I love variety with everything. I am never bored then.Or addictive to one-type food. One last thing, if I am out eating with friends at a restaurant and their is something I normally don't care for eating, I simply give myself absolution to eat it without any side effects, therefore I don't have any guilt with eating this type of food. So' its giving myself permissipn to eat it without fear attracting a negative experience back..I do this also with everything quietly, most people would not understand, so I don't discuss this normally. Its good to see many people are waking up and taking charge of their life, and physical body and connecting with themself on a Higher level of being.. I apply this way of thinking with everything I do, and this is why I believe l ook the way I do. I follow my inner guidance always.. peace & love :)
Great video! The Paleo Manifesto is an incredible book. It contains a lot of wisdom and is one of those books that can alter your way of living. Although this talk lacked a little bit in hard information, I have a great video on my channel where I share the main takeaways from his book the paleo manifesto.
sdushdiu I hear Paleo is being replaced by a new fad: fecal transplants to reengineer the gut biome. People are taking prices of dried fecal matter from desert caves that were deposited by people 15,000 years ago and inserting it up their butt to get the microbes. At first I thought this was just a made of excuse for kinky sex but it is real.
I think that depends on the person and their genetics. Studies of one population don't equal that of another population. For instance, i suffered from indigestion and slow digestion for years and my bowel movements only became regular when i added in more animal protein and fats. So, how is that explained? Would i have been better eating primarily breads and pastas and other foods which destroyed my health?
Gary Taubes, Dr Micheal Eades, Dr Mary Eades, Mark sisson, Dr Stephen Phinney, Dr Jeff Volek, Professor Arthur De Vany, Dr Shawn Baker, Chiropractor Eric Berg... There are a lot actually but people dont know they're as old aa they are i guess
If you look like Jesus, you just need believers :-). I am always surprised when Google's mission is quoted somewhere ("[…] is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful") compared to the speakers of Talks at Google. Many of them would be filtered as spam by Gmail.
Numerous and basic inaccuracies in this video. 1. Lactose tolerance is not a gene or a 'gene that got flipped'. Lactose persistence is an allele and there are several known versions. Lactose is merely the sugar and for the minority to merely tolerate this sugar does not mean the other components of foreign-species milk are tolerated relatively well ( high saturated fat, cholesterol, insulin, beta casomorphine, etc.) among adults and 2. certainly doesn't mean any human 'adapted to' (evolution is not directional milk just because some tolerate the sugar in milk beyond childhood. 3. John continues to promote the protein myth regarding beneficial ratios of essential amino acids in insects. Meanwhile, excess protein is implicated in more diseases of affluence than insufficient protein and there is no shortage of protein with sufficient food intake and variety on a vegan or fruitarian diet. 4. Children more adapted than adults to grains?
Definition of Allele, "An allele is one of two or more versions of a gene. An individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that gene." Does that change his point? and If so, in what way? Honestly curious.
A nomadic hunter gather way of life is surely the best way to live, but how would it be possible now? And at google? There is not enough wild food for seven billion people, I wish there were. Living in the modern world based on monetary exchange, or even bartering, we need to come up with solutions for this society. Can we grow our own food forests in our yards, in public spaces, in urban spaces, to recultivate and protect seeds for wild food sources? Can we buy from local organic farms? Can we support the good produce that is available and make more, because gmo, herbicide, pesticide laden monocrops grown on mineral defiencient soil are not going to improve our world. The factory farms are not either.

He seemed so much more wild in Get Him to the Greek
Damn never made that connection, but yeah. Also if you ever watch Sam Harris, he and Ben Stiller...

I don't even consider paleo a diet. It's a philosophy of health. What converted me to paleo is it cured my chronic insomnia.
+Jaxson Jillix Me too

Very interesting. Thumbs up!
John is easy to listen to and puts things into "digestible" hunks. I will search his discussion out!
Thank you for this presentation

I was very disappointed by the lack of hard information in his talk.
But a fantastic belief based make it up as you go subjectivity is SO much more entertaining.
Symbolism over substance sells.

+G. Fredrick Nowatzke Stick to your igloo music and stop commenting on anything on the internet. Humanity thanks you.
That's exactly the point. Our bodies are very poorly adapted to eating animal products. Is this guy hearing himself talk?
I think that depends on the person and their genetics. Studies of one population don't equal that of another population. For instance, i suffered from indigestion and slow digestion for years and my bowel movements only became regular when i added in more animal protein and fats. So, how is that explained? Would i have been better eating primarily breads and pastas and other foods which destroyed my health?
is there any lowcarb/paleo/primarily meat eaters who are looking healthy past 50? not having a dig at these diets just wondering?
Check out Arthur De Vany. Did not dig a lot about it but it seems legit.
A bit late for this but Mark Sisson is an example.
From what i have seen, there are far more olde healthy people who eat a plant-based diet as opposed to a high fat/protein low carb diet.
Gary Taubes, Dr Micheal Eades, Dr Mary Eades, Mark sisson, Dr Stephen Phinney, Dr Jeff Volek, Professor Arthur De Vany, Dr Shawn Baker, Chiropractor Eric Berg... There are a lot actually but people dont know they're as old aa they are i guess
Hero.

Why not mention GMO FREE/organic...?
Not a big factor.

I;m curious myself.
And please don't tell me you believe primates are somehow vegan, they're very, very much omnivores.
