Paleo Meal Prep Delivery

The original concept of the Paleo diet was introduced in an article published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1985 called Paleolithic nutrition by radiologist Stanley Boyd Eaton and professor of Anthropology and Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology at Emory University, Melvin Konner.

Paleolithic nutrition became popular when Loren Cordain introduced it commercially in his book “The Paleo Diet” in 2002. Loren Cordain is an American scientist who specialized in nutrition and exercise. He has published several books, but “The Paleo Diet” was one of his most populoar works. From there, the Paleo diet slowly became popular among people seeking better health. In 2013, the term Paleo diet ranked in Google search as one of the most searched for modern diets.

Improved heart health

Several studies have reported the paleo diet can have benefits for heart health. This is particularly useful for people with diabetes as heart disease is one of the most common diabetes-related complications. In 2015 scientists discovered that the paleo diet significantly lowered total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides and increased HDL compared to a standard diet.
