Health Benefits

 

While it’s claimed to be the world’s healthiest diet, the Paleo diet is also considered to be a lifestyle. The Paleo diet also poses recommendations about the importance of sun exposure, exercise and sleep (Cordain, 2010; Cordain 2017; Paleo Leap, 2017). It is believed that the Paleo diet additionally:

• Improves fitness
• Reduces acne
• Improves sleep
• Increases immune function
• Lessens allergies (Cordain, 2017; Macri, 2016-b; Paleo Leap, 2017)
