A couple of people decided they would do an initial medical study to see how well the cooked paleo diet fared versus the conventional SWEDISH diabetes diet. Obviously, paleo diet is better. Even if cooked. Just imagine if they did a raw paleo diet study. But as you and I know, there will be no more money for future studies because studies are meant to sell drugs and drugs alone. So be happy something like this conclusion has come out:
Based on the results of this 3-month randomized cross-over study in subjects with type 2 diabetes, a Paleolithic diet improves glycemic control in association with improvement of several cardiovascular risk factors compared to a conventional diabetes diet. The study supports the initiation of a large scale study on the effect of Paleolithic diet in subjects with type 2 diabetes.That is it. Be content with the thousands of testimonials on the internet about how great the paleo diet is. If you want even more health, try raw paleo diet. What I can tell you is great health is so satisfying you do not want to go back. Back to what? Mediocre health?
