Protein Power Lifeplan Gram Counter - High Precision Digital Food Scale for Protein Tracking | Perfect for Keto, Paleo & Bodybuilding Diets

This book might well be called "Paleolithic lifestyle for the modern man". The basic idea of the book is that our bodies have been developed to live in the Stone Age. Then came agriculture and we've been downhill ever since.The authors try to adapt that Paleolithic lifestyle to today without being radical. They don't suggest you have to go eat snails, tough there are some intriguing suggestions. One of them is to give regular blood transfusions to "balance" our current lack of parasites and help regulate iron contents in the body!Diet is a very important part of the book but not all. In this new book they discuss supplements, cholesterol, how the gut works, sunbathing, exercise AND diet.If you buy the "Paleolithic Hypothesis", which they make a fine case defending, then this book is for you. If you just want to diet, their own "Protein Power" would be an easier reading, though there are a few revisions in the new book.The book is very well written and even funny sometimes. It's not a "reheated" version of "Protein Power" but a completely new book where the authors had a lot of latitude, even to defend some polemic ideas that would certainly not help sales. They claim, for instance, that cultivating grain is a form of drug trade.I would also recommend "The Ketogenic Diet" for people that want to know the physiology of this kind of diet.By the way, I've been on the diet for almost a year now. I lost 60 pounds and feel great
