I have referenced the Ancestral Health Symposium a number of times on my site so you can learn from the very best people in the nutrition and health field.
If you missed these two articles and you really want to learn how to eat, move and be healthy then you must read both of these –
It’s really cool when you find great pictures that capture what I probably mess up putting into words on this very blog. So instead of doing another article on the importance of eating unprocessed, paleo/primal foods and why getting the basics right is all most people need, I give you the pic below which you really need save, print or post somewhere so as to remind you that you are not ‘ON’ anything.
Almost on a daily basis I get clients asking about using protein shakes or powders. Let’s keep this really simple and say the following –
This time last year I wrote an extensive article that pretty much summed up what and how you should be eating to feel, look and perform at your very best. If you are new to this site or have slipped off the waggon and need some reminding then start there first.
I was recently asked what I thought was the single most important aspect of nutrition. I could have said something like the following -
- Get off all wheat based foods. They are screwing up your digestion, causing inflammation and making fat loss difficult – If in doubt cut the wheat out

I have been a big fan of his work for absolutely ages and I can still remember reading his articles in The Observer magazine (a Sunday paper) over ten years ago and thinking “wow, here is a doctor that encourages people to eat the exact way I would recommend”. He would also look at the diets of ‘famous’ people and comment on how absolutely terrible/great they were and make suggestions on alternative food choices when needed.
Here is an article he wrote for the paper back in 2004 –
I recently watched a great interview with Dr Mary Vernon who is one of the worlds leading experts on treating diabetes and obesity through a low carb approach. She also did an excellent interview with Jimmy Moore on his ever entertaining Livin’ La Lida Low Carb Show which is available here – Innovative Metabolic Solutions
The interviewer is Dr Eendfledt whom I have discussed previously in one of the most important nutrition articles I have written – The Definitive Guide to Optimal Nutrition.
However, sometimes it’s not any of the above that’s going to make you do it and it just comes down to how bad you want it.
