<<I tried getting one of my friends to eat paleo for a
week. Normally, he eats loads of grains and dairy
(his parents do too). He felt absolutely horrible on
the paleo diet. This tells me that his genes are
actually better suited to a grain and dairy based
diet. Or do u think that he should continue to eat
paleo even though his body is telling him not to?>>
Like the teen in the post that started this, I too
felt worse for a period of time after starting this
diet. I was very tired, lethargic, headachy... I was
told that if I was tired that I was not getting enough
fat in my diet. I increased it and that part of my
*problem* with paleo went away. After a few weeks the
rest of the stuff disappeared also. I think that the
problem lies in the fact that we, especially in the
States, expect instant results from whatever we do.
This WOE is not a cure-all, but I think it deserves
some time to see if it really helps.
