Further Possibilities?

I was searching around on line and found an interesting site:

http://paleodiet.com/

It covers a diet based on...well, let me use the wording on the site:

"Paleo is a simple dietary lifestyle that is based on foods being either in or out. In are the Paleolithic Era foods that we ate prior to agriculture and animal husbandry (meat, fish, shellfish, eggs, tree nuts, vegetables, roots, fruit, berries, mushrooms, etc.). Out are Neolithic Era foods that result from agriculture or animal husbandry (grains, dairy, beans/legumes, potatoes, sugar and fake foods)"

I also happen to be allergic to milk, so this type of diet has some appeal to me. I'm not sure I'm ready to be a purist with this type of diet, though.

Still, I'm glad that someone has gone to the trouble of figuring this stuff out. Eliminating both wheat and milk from an American diet continues to be challenging. I appreciate all the help I can get.
