Is the Paleo Movement Genetically Out of Sync with Modern Humans?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The Paleo movement, which may include all or some of the following: A Paleo diet, Paleo sleeping, Paleo exercise, etc., is essentially an attempt to integrate as much of the Stone Age hunter-gatherer lifestyle into one’s life as she/he feels is reasonable. The benefits of a Paleo lifestyle are said to be many, and there are numerous devout supporters and adherents to the movement. However, recent studies by evolutionary biologists suggest that the Paleo way of life may not be as in tune with modern humans, or our genes, as some believe.

History of the Paleo Movement

Newton Daily News provides a succinct explanation of the Paleo diet (which is key to the Paleo movement) and its promises:

“This diet is based on the belief that if we eat like our ancestors did 10,000 years ago, we’ll be healthier, lose weight and have less disease. The Paleo diet promotes a higher intake of protein and fat. The carbohydrates included with the Paleo diet are not from grains, but rather from fruits and vegetables (not including white potatoes or dry beans).”
