Thomas > I tend to agree. Even wheat, which is the biggest cause of
trouble for me, is 'paleo' if it is eaten in the paleo way

Consider the idea that not everything we consume -- now and then -- is
always good for us.  It's hypothetical that wild wheat was available in
the first place.  But even if it was, mere consumption does not imply
healthfulness.  If if did, Richard Pryor would have his own healthy
lifestyle show.

Thomas > For weight lifters, I have to ask, what is the point? If you
want to build giant muscles, don't expect the paleo diet to help

Very few humans have the ability to build giant muscles.  The goal is
peak fitness.  Read the article below and you'll begin to get an idea
of how weight training, properly performed at very high levels of
intensity, is the single best *cardio* workout possible.  After all,
what is the purpose of the heart anyway?  To provide blood to the
body's tissues.  Work the muscular system intensely and you're gonna
raise the heart muscle and lungs intensely too.
