Couldn't a paleo warrior find plenty of non grain or bean substitutes for the
carb loading days? I'm thinking winter squash, or baked chestnuts? 2 cups of
cooked butternut squash has 41 grams of carbs. Put a dollop of coconut butter
or tahini (sesame butter) on it, and you've fulfilled the carb/fat requirement.
And butternut squash can be eaten raw, so it qualifies as paleo. I never
hunted one with a sharp stick, tho. I guess I don't understand why folks are
eating potato, or white rice. Is there something magical about those foods
causing one to loose weight, whereas a paleo option doesn't work? Hmmm, what
would Grok do?
Best,

Carb-load days:
Before the carb-load meal, which is always the last meal of the day:
15-50 gr protein per meal
"moderate" fat both monosaturated and saturated
< 30 gr carbs
The carb-load meal itself:
< 20 gr protein
< 20 gr fat
> 60 gr carbs (men), > 40 gr carbs (women); you can have more as you wish.
Carbs should be at least 70% starches, the rest as HIFWAC fruits, avoiding
sugars.
