First off, this is not a critique of the Paleo Diet itself...let me just be
clear about that up right up front...

This is a critique from Nick Pineault (author of The Truth About Fat
Burning Foods) of one of his nutrition clients who's on the Paleo diet.

Some really eye-opening stuff here that I think you'll find
interesting...and maybe a bit shocking...

-------------------

Here's a sample of what Nick's client, Mark, eats
on a typical day:

Breakfast: Cage-free omega-3 eggs with organic spinach

Snack: Brown rice protein with some "Stevia in the raw"

Lunch: Mixed greens, chicken breast and homemade olive oil dressing

Dinner: Grass-fed beef steak seasoned with soy sauce and a
medium sweet potato

Evening Snack: Berries with honey


What Mark is doing right (Nick's comments):

Mark's Paleo diet is off to a good start because he focuses on
natural whole foods. He's eating "cleaner" than 99% of people
eating this way.


What Mark is doing wrong:

Okay, let's take this meal by meal.


Breakfast:

Mark was doing the right thing trying to buy healthier eggs,
but he got scammed by marketing terms.

"Cage-free" has no legal definition in the US, which probably
means his eggs are produced by hens crammed by thousands
inside small barns - making eggs with a fraction of the nutrition.

The second problem with those eggs is the added omega-3.

You see, the Center for Science in the Public Interest's independent
lab tests revealed that they contain less than half of the omega-3
claimed on the packaging.

But it doesn't really matter anyway, because the omega-3 in
them is ALA (from the flax hens are fed with), which is 800%
to 3300% less absorbable than the form of omega-3 naturally
contained in healthy eggs (EPA and DHA).

If you want eggs that contain multiple times more nutrients
than these cheap cage-free eggs, stick with pasture-raised eggs -
which means that hens are allowed to roam around outside like
they're supposed to.


Snack:

Let's put it that way: this brand of stevia is a huge scam.

Stevia In The Raw contains 95% dextrose - also known as… pure
sugar. Because the FDA allows any food that contains less than
4 calories per serving to be labeled as "calorie-free", this product
shows portion sizes of 0.5g - 1/8 of a teaspoon - and continues to
claim it contains 0 calories.

Instead of buying this forfeit brand, stick with any brand that only
shows stevia on the ingredients list.


Lunch:

It's true: olive oil is a great source of healthy fats and anti-aging
compounds... but only if you buy the right kind.

In 2010, Consumer Reports - one of the most credible and
influential non-profit organizations fighting for consumer rights
in the US - revealed that around 20% of all olive oils are fake
and have been mixed with other cheap oils.

This terrible scam has been confirmed yet again in 2012, when
the UC Davis Olive Center found out that only 27% of all olive
oils passed the quality test to be labeled "extra virgin" - the
best and most nutritious kind there is.

So again, without even being aware of it, your olive oil might
contain up to 100% vegetable oil - filled with fattening trans fats.

Dinner:

Forget everything you heard about how red meat is fattening.
Grass-fed beef contains 2 to 4 times more omega-3, many times
more vitamins and minerals than the cheap supermarket kind,
and is packed with the natural fat burner CLA.

The problem is: some grass-fed beef are "grain finished", which
means they are fattened with grains in the last month before
being slaughtered.

This process may help the beef farmer make extra money - but
it actually changes the fat in your grass-fed beef from omega-3s
to inflammatory omega-6s and removes the CLA.

Way to pay the premium price for something that doesn't contain
what it's supposed to!

To make sure you buy the right fat burning beef, look for "pasture-
raised beef" or "grass-fed AND finished beef".

Evening Snack:

There's no such thing as fat burning sugar, but certain natural
sugars like honey are less fattening than processed sugar.

But watch out: a recent study by Food Safety News found out
that 75% of the honey sold in the US may be fake and potentially
contain the banned antibiotic chloramphenicol and dangerous
heavy metals.

Always make sure your honey is real by buying it locally, and
always buy raw honey instead of the pasteurized kind that's nothing
more than pure sugar.

-------------------

As you can see from Nick's analysis of Mark's diet - chances are
good that you're consuming a lot of fattening (and mislabeled!)
foods without even being aware of it.

Let me tell you, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

transform your kitchen from fat-storing to fat burning in less
