Hi,

I just finished reading "The Paleo Diet" by Loren Cordain and started to look on 
the web for a discussion or news group that discussed this diet. 

I started having an interest in this diet since I developed osteoarthritis 
recently and came upon the subject of paleolithic eating. It seems to make 
pretty good sense to me. 

I haven't checked too far back in your archives but it seems that zero-carbs 
seems to be very popular. Regarding the last post on cooking oils no one 
suggested canola oil which seems to be highly endorsed by Loren Cordain who 
also discourages the consumption of saturated animal fat.

One of the things I wanted to ask a question on was regarding what you 
thought of flax bread. I refer you to 
http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/breads/r/flaxbasicfoc.htm

I have been making this recently, contains no grains and I use mostly Omega 
3 eggs and canola oil. 

I know in Cordain's book he looks down on breads/cakes using nut or root 
flours but I would like to get your opinion on whether this recipe fits into the 
paleo-diet.

Thanks,

Mike
