Posted at 12:08h, 14 NovemberQuickie quiestion on Theresa Cutter’s site http://www.thehealthychef.com.
Is everything on there fair game or are there particular ingredients that should be avoided? I notice things like Spelt flour etc being used and can’t tell whether than comes under Wheat or not (I’d know the answer to this if it was 50million years ago when it was wheat)

Posted at 15:01h, 14 NovemberHi Steve. Because we have not gone with a strict paleo approach there are always going to be grey areas. While spelt is not a wheat grain it is still a grain containing gluten and therefore should be avoided if possible.
That said, many decisions you need to make that are on the borderline should be made in the broader context of the rest of your nutritional intake, and with particular reference to the challenge with the original intent of the challenge in mind.
What we are hoping to achieve with setting up the challenge is to CHALLENGE you to make better (not perfect) choices for your overall long term health. If the rest of your choices are dialled in and you have made radical changes for the better then you have come a long way towards improving your health. The occasional misdemeanor is almost inevitable but we don’t want you obsessing about perfection. Many people place tighter controls on themselves than the challenge does once they become aware of the toxicity of certain foods.
The whole “Paleo” movement is a fluid concept as new scientific information and anecdotal evidence comes to light. So even a strict paleo diet will mean different things to different people, but the intent is the same. Also, every individual is a unique and ever-changing collection of genetic and non-human microbiological building blocks, so there can be no single prescription for the optimal health of any given population.
So, if you think that a small allowance with a particular type of food will make a positive contribution to the likelihood of your sticking to the main purpose of the challenge, then it is probably ok. BUT DON’T INDULGE AND DON’T GIVE UP ENTIRELY. If it contravenes the guidelines of the challenge, then you give up a point. A small sacrifice for the greater good of your mental and social well being.
Here’s a link to a pretty good easy reference article:

Posted at 20:30h, 14 NovemberDr Terry Wahls: our brains contain a billion cells, our bodies a trillion or there abouts..our gut 100 trillion bacteria..we need to feed the good bacteria so they thrive. The bad thrive on sugar, gluten and processed foods.. Some motivation for a paleo shift:)

Posted at 05:10h, 15 NovemberThanks Jim. Great advice. I like the balanced approach you guys take and have to say that it’s not easy to give up some old habits but its probably the easiest eating plan – hesitate to say “diet” I have been on in that I am never hungry! Sugar isn’t easy to give up but I’m starting to feel the benefits. Sleeping better and waking refreshed?! Or is that because I’m so buggered from a workout? Whatever it is its working !

Posted at 12:28h, 15 NovemberHello anon. Would you mind sharing your identity?
I don’t like to use the word “Diet” either, mainly due to its common modern usage. It’d be a convenient word to use if people read it to simply mean ‘the stuff you eat and drink’.
Unfortunately it has taken on negative connotations that assume caloric restrictions, short-term methods focussing on weight loss, faddish principles etc.
