⚡️Easy ways to go paleo, live primal and add years to your life - without restriction

💬 “ The essence of the primal movement is, when in doubt, go back to the ancestral model and emulate that in the real world.” ~Mark Sisson

➡︎ The modern world and all its comforts are causing us pain and making us sick. Our bodies did not evolve to live like this - to sit for hours on end, or to chug down ultra-processed food every 3 hours. The solution? Go primal.

➡︎ Mark Sisson is widely known as the founding father of the ancestral health movement and the paleo diet. His focus is on getting us to eat and move like our ancestors, to extend the healthy years we have on this planet. He’s the author of The Primal Blueprint, The Keto Reset Diet and The Primal Connection. And his latest book is titled Born To Walk.

➡︎ In this episode, Mark and Tim discuss the core tenants of the Primal Blueprint, and how you can easily incorporate these into your life. They dismantle the misconceptions around the Paleo diet, explaining just how abundant your food choices can be. They discuss the many health benefits of going barefoot (or wearing barefoot shoes). And, with the Health Optimisation Summit in Austin coming up, they explore the importance of finding your “tribe” and sharing your journey with other, like-minded people.
