Did you know:

• Paleolithic people ate no dairy. Imagine how difficult it would be to milk a wild animal, even if you could somehow manage to catch one.
• Paleolithic people hardly ever ate cereal grains. This sounds shocking to us today, but for most ancient people, grains were considered starvation food at best.
• Paleolithic people didn't salt their food. 
• The only refined sugar Paleolithic people ate was honey, if they were lucky enough to find it. 
• Wild, lean animal foods dominated Paleolithic diets, so their protein intake was quite high by modern standards, while their carbohydrate consumption was much lower. 
• Virtually all the carbohydrates Paleolithic people ate came from nonstarchy fruits and vegetables. Consequently, their carbohydrate intake was much lower and their fiber intake much higher than those obtained by eating the typical modern diet.
