I am not a medical expert or nutritionist. The point of these posts are not to advocate for or discourage the food trends that they will cover. They are purely to provide some basic facts that are concrete and create a clearer picture of what paleo diet is all about since there is usually a lot of confusion surrounding them. They are here to serve as a reference if you didn’t quite understand these eating styles beforehand.
