Like James, I'm one who is trying to go paleo but who hasn't quite made
it all the way.  I'm more paleo this month than last, and hope to be
more paleo next month than this month.

I've never felt better in my life, but I'm wondering if my feeling of
well-being is consistent with the theory underlying Neanderthin.
Because Neanderthin is premised upon an auto-immune theory (e.g., a
myriad of problems -- in my case, obesity and hyperinsulinism -- are in
reality an "allergic" response to non-paleo food), is *partial*
compliance with a paleo diet beneficial?  In other words, is Neanderthin
all or nothing?

Any ideas?
