For the most part, the "Paleo" diet might as well be renamed to the "evidence-based diet". It has a very solid footing in scientific fact, despite the "eat like a caveman" bullsh*t that everyone seems to want to talk about when mentioning it. Some people go crazy over it with every little "rule" but in a nutshell:
- Avoid all grains (rice, bread, corn, wheat, etc...)
- Avoid artificial sugar and moderate your intake of natural sugar (fruit)
- Stick to real food and ingredients (meats, fish, vegetables, nuts, eggs...)
- Throw away your corn/veg oil for cooking and use Ghee/Butter/Coconut oil instead, Olive oil is great for eating but not so much for cooking.
That's the long and short of it. Some people also add legume avoidance (peanuts, beans) and dairy avoidance although it seems like the science behind those rules flip-flops between those being good or bad for you, or have to do with how it's prepared, etc...
Even stricter (although much, much healthier) is to stick with grass-fed animals instead of grain-fed. The health differences between the two are night and day but grass-fed is harder to find and more expensive.
There's a Paleo thread on here many pages long - you could start there.
