To say that this paleo/ancestral life-way has saved and dramatically improved my life would be something between spot on and a complete understatement. I was really sick when I came on all this back in 1998 and for being almost 40 I feel like I’m doing pretty well. But I wonder at times if I’m… Continue Reading

Make the Most of the ‘Off-season’
The last ‘big’ races/events are over for the season – triathlons, cycling, marathons, the Games – all done for another year. It’s officially the ‘off-season’; the time for our bodies to rest, recover, and start preparing for the next go. While the ‘off-season’ is commonly associated with athletes, it truly applies to all of us. … Continue Reading
I-CaveMan: After Party-Part 2
If you missed Part 1 here it is. Deep Water The show covered the bulk of the dramas and challenges we faced but one piece that was important did get edited out. When we faced our water shortage, production suggested that we use a skin, get rocks hot and boil the creek water. I argued… Continue Reading
I-CaveMan: After Party-Part 1
Holy Cats!! I received a ton of questions and support surrounding the recent Discovery Channel show, I-Cave Man. Thanks to everyone for both the questions and the support.

Myra’s Story: “You don’t have to be perfect…”
The only thing I can see as a “starting factor” to my eating disorder is that I began taking birth control about the same time and started dealing with depression off and on. I have been battling with bulimia, bingeing and purging, since I was 19. Now, almost 32, I look back and wonder how… Continue Reading

Prior to the 1970’s meat and dairy in the United states was still grass fed so we received ample amounts of the main constituents of fish oil, EPA and DHA, as part of our… Continue Reading
What is the Paleo Diet?
It’s funny, but in all the time that I’ve written on this paleo diet topic I’ve never really defined (in my terms) what I think constitutes a “paleo diet.” I laid out some general guidelines in the book and FAQ of course, but I’ve never done that for the blog. I think part of my… Continue Reading
“I was a vegetarian for most of my life…” – A Life Changing Revelation.
This is an odd statement to use in this particular situation, but here goes: I was a vegetarian for most of my life, and it actually didn’t completely ruin me. Yep…I started abstaining from meat when I was about four years old, oddly enough, for moral reasons. The rest of my family ate meat, but as… Continue Reading
Paleo Athletes Uncovered: Olympic Hopeful Ursula Grobler
Can an endurance athlete be successful eating a paleo diet? I hear this question all of the time and I was actually the one asking it a few years ago. Does it work? Yep. How do I know? I tried it and actually won a marathon eating paleo. My experience completely changed my life –… Continue Reading
Lean, Mean, Desk Jockey?
I spend a lot of time thinking about health achieved through lifestyle. I also spend a lot of time at work. Bring the two together, and you guessed it, I spend a lot of time thinking about how the work environment is a big piece of the lifestyle pie. There are a lot of things… Continue Reading
