Abstract:

This presentation is crucially important not only for losing weight with a well-adjusted diet but also for maintaining the weight loss through the years.

A critical appraisal of the Paleolithic diet is that it consists of eating types of foods that have been available to humans for millions of years, such as meat, fish, organ meat, poultry, fruits, and vegetables. An in-depth investigation of archeological sites and the adaptation of the human gastrointestinal tract to Paleo foods and not to modern foods (starting from the teeth to the colon) shows why Paleo-type foods are better. The results of studies, including a meta-analysis of studies, comparing the Paleo diet and other diets on weight loss, glucometabolism, and lipids, show the greater efficacy of the Paleo diet.

Two meals per day, with the main meal at breakfast or lunch, makes this diet in timing close to the intermittent fasting diet.

Drinks and foods that do and do not belong in the Paleo diet are reviewed, and information is provided on correct cooking methods and mediums (steaming, boiling, or cooking at a low temperature in the oven). The toxicity of trans fatty acids, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and other toxins generated by a high cooking temperature and the use of oils as a medium are discussed with consideration of the scientific studies.

The effect of high-protein diets, high-fat ketogenic diets, and low-carb diets and their impact on body composition, weight loss, and hormone levels are investigated, further showing why the Paleo diet for many people is the best diet to lose weight and maintain weight loss.

This session is illustrated with many pictures and scientific references.
