The diet you SHOULD eat to be in a great shape, sleep like a baby, have more energy than ever before and to lose weight easily, is the diet we ate for thousands of years before agriculture, provided by Mother Nature.

| Paleo Diet Recipe |
Their food (meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, eggs, nuts and seeds - excluding grains, legumes, potato, refined salt, refined sugar and processed oils) was simple nutritious and NON-TOXIC.
However, the main diet is difficult to keep, so today we can find two other versions of the main Paleo diet:
both of them contains carbohydrates. The first one has 23% while the second contains up to 28% of carbohydrates, and allows root veggies. Please note that if your main goal is weight loss, you have to pick the right carbohydrates, that can be found below on the listing.
The reason of the carbohydrates appearance in the Paleo diet is because of the scientists agreed that our body-system needs more nutritions than our ancestors had in their diet, 'cause of the evolutionary changes in our digestive systems and because of the agricultural changes.
If you decide to follow the Paleo diet (beside reading the *About* section of the blog) please choose to do it as a diet, but if you wish to do it as a life-long diet, consult with your doctor, or dietician-nutritionist, who will personally measure, supervise and track your condition of health for your best interest. :)

Roasted pork with veggies ant fruits:
-Pork meat
-Onions
-Mushrooms
-Carrots
-Cucumber
-1 tbsp of olive oil
-Spices on your flavour
-Strawberries
Heat the oil in a fryingpan. Add the meat (what you can marinate in spices before roasting for 20mins), and roast it. When half done, turn the meat over and add the (chopped) carrots, the onions and the mushrooms. Here, you can pour some water to the pan (carefully) and put the cover of the pan on top. After 5 mins remove the cover, and roast the meat and veggies till the meat is well-done. Serve it with the strawberries. Enjoy :)
Antioxidants: oxidation inhibitors. In our bodies, during the oxidation, free radicals are forming, that are oxidized oxygene atoms/molecules which is damaging our cells. With our own antioxidats, we can neutralize the free radicals, yet with too much stress, wrong eating habits and by aging, the free radicals are proliferating in us. This is when we have to grow the intake of natural antioxidants to re-store the natural balance.
