Will the true Paleo Diet please stand up?

What is the authentic Paleo Diet? Myriad interpretations, diverse rules, and disagreements surround the oldest diet on the planet. Other "Paleo experts" relax the rules to the point where we lose the benefits altogether. Perhaps the whole point of Paleo is to be inspired by our ancestral diet, to take the positive points as wisdom and leave the rest. Many people ask me questions: What kind of flour should I use? Are sweeteners that raise blood sugar Paleo-approved? Why aren't ...

Turkey Curry Stew with Pumpkin

A delicious stew with an exotic twist. Inspired by Asian peanut curry, instead of peanuts it uses almond butter - Yummy!

Uh Oh! Favorite Foods that Convert to SUGAR in Your Blood

Shall we do some MYTH BUSTING? We all know sugar is BAD. And whole foods are GOOD. Yep, we've got that. But WHY is SUGAR bad? And why do many people eat a whole food diet but still end up with Diabetes, Heart disease, and Rheumatoid Arthritis? Maybe it's not caused by BAD vs. GOOD foods. Maybe it's because HIGH-CARB WHOLE FOODS immediately convert to sugar in the body? AHA!! These foods may not TASTE sweet, but too much of ...

WiFi Disrupts Natural Sleep Cycles & Brain Biorhythms

Why do many people sleep poorly and don't know why?  But when they turn the WiFi OFF before bed, they enjoy refreshing deep sleep? Aha!  That's because WiFi tells your brain that it is DAYTIME!  WiFi stimulates your pineal gland, brain, and endocrine system to WAKE UP!  Poor sleep always leads to accelerated aging.

Uh Oh! Coconut Sugar is 100% Sugar!

Terrible news! Coconut sugar is 100% sugar! You won't feel a glycemic rush, as coconut sugar is relatively low in glucose. But here's the rub: The rest of the sugar is fructose! It's 100% sugar! Just like HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup), fructose in coconut sugar is a liver toxin that causes high cholesterol, obesity, and diabetes (Yup, our top epidemics). Fructose doesn't give you a glycemic jolt. Instead it quietly and insidiously fills your liver with bad lipid (fat) deposits and makes you want more sweets. Glycemic index can measure glucose, ...

Testimonials

Dan Farquhar

“Hello, Jane. I have been interested in our food and how it has been altered for nearly a half century. Your blog had become one of my favorite readings. It is easy to see that you have put a good amount of thought and love in to each of your entries. I am also a firm believer that you are “what you don’t eat” as well as you are “what you do eat”. Your AVOID! list is right on the money. What a great list. Keep up the good work!”
