He and I have had many discusssions about it. He eats no grains (oatmeal, corn, etc). Grains are evil. The real threat to the heart is carbohydrates, he says. He eats carbohydrates in limited amounts
High fat. Leaves skin on chicken and eats the fat from steak. Lots of salt but it must be sea salt, not the salt you get from Morton's. I don't do the Paleo diet. It's just too restricting for me. He says the caveman died early not because of what they ate but because of exposure to the elements and multiple wild carnivores like the sabor tooth tiger which was five times the size of the modern tiger. They hunted the beasts and the beasts hunted them.He eats no potatoes (although I point out that you can pick them up of the ground which seems to be a Paleo paradigm). I basically follow a balanced diet. My wife will not put a lot of fat on the table.
