30 Day Guide to the Paleo Diet
Want some extra help? Have you been trying Paleo for a while but have questions or aren’t sure what the right exercise program is for you? Or maybe you just want a 30-day meal plan and shopping list to make things easier? We’ve created a getting started guide to help you through your first 30 days.
Libsyn audio is from episode 272!
Doesn’t appear to be the Noakes program.
Wrong episode number in link.
Here’s the link to episode 273:

Sorry about that. I made a typo on the download link and it was accidentally linking to last week’s instead of this week’s. Fixed now.
THANK YOU!! Finally, two extremely intelligent people addressing the carb wars. There really *are* underlying genetic differences that contribute to higher or lower levels of carbohydrate tolerance. And I was so glad to hear Dr. Noakes mention a related issue: even if people would otherwise be genetically suited a certain diet, there are probably dietary & environmental influences very early on in life that override those biological wires, such that someone who would otherwise do well on higher carbs “messes up” that wiring over time, via junk food, being sedentary, antibiotics, insufficient sleep, not enough natural light (and dark!) exposure…and on and on.
People always bring out the Kitavans when they argue that, “clearly, ALL human beings can thrive on lots of starch and fruit.” Really? REALLY? Why do we not give more credence to the idea that the Kitavans thrive on that diet *because* they are the Kitavans? And Arctic populations thrive on their higher fat diet because that’s what *their* genes and environment have adapted them to thrive on?
Human beings thrive on many different diets, but that doesn’t mean that *all* dietary approaches will be best for *all* human beings. I just don’t understand why this is so hard for folks to wrap their heads around, when they insist on pushing plant-only (I refuse to say “plant-based”), low-carb, or keto diets for *everyone.*
Just put up a post about this today, in fact:

Interest in knowing more about this diet. Is it correct for tiny children?? I have seen a child who is absolutely mal-nourished, pale and not very involved in life and her parents are on the Paleo diet and have been feeding her this too. This has me very concerned.
Funy, my two daughters are off the charts on ever measure…and eat paleo. What you are describing sounds more like vegans.
Well hot damn! if this wasn’t one of the best podcasts/interviews you’ve ever done Robb. I am biased though; I took up the challenge of your Greasy Used Car Salesman’s pitch of “try it, tell me how it goes” and as it turns out it worked out pretty well. Along with incorporating the material from the Prof (Waterlogged, Lore of Running and Real Meal Revolution) into my training, a couple of weeks ago I ran the Comrades marathon and snagged a silver medal for covering the 88.7km course over 5 monstrous hills in a sub 7-30 hour time. Thanks to you and the Prof I’ve regained my health and been able to perform at a reasonable level athletically.
I hope Tim enjoys his visit to Pinnacle Point. I headed there after Comrades and ate my way round the coast back to Cape Town. I hope there is still some seafood left as I made quite a dent in the local supply 😉
Made my day Matthew!!
