Nature has provided every creature that roams the earth a diet designed to sustain and maximize its life. What these diets are composed of is based on a creature’s location, climate, accessibility, and physical prowess. As humans, our ancient forefathers―and mothers―were raised and nourished in the same manner as the beasts that surrounded them. These Stone Age diets, now called Paleo diets, reflect the types of foods that nature intended us to eat. Unfortunately, we have lost touch with how nature intended us to live and mistakenly think we can eat anything sitting on our supermarket shelves. Paleo in a Nutshell is an eye-opening guide to restoring our health by eating the foods for which our bodies are designed to consume. Author Geoff Bond is a world-renowned scientist who has extensively researched forager societies of the past and present. What he has discovered is that our hunter-gatherer ancestors had never experienced the health disorders that plague us today. This is because their diets, environments, and daily activities were far more in touch with their bodies than our way of life today. Although our diet has become our most dysfunctional feature, other aspects of the Paleo lifestyle are essential to explore as well. In Part One of this book, we learn how and why our ancestors thrived and explore how things went wrong when we stopped behaving in agreement with our evolutionary past. In Part Two, we are provided with an “Owner’s Manual”―a guide to appropriate and healthy foods with which to fuel our bodies―and a step-by-step plan for implementing this way of eating. While you may no longer have time to hunt and forage for your food, this book offers modern and simple substitutions for you to use, as well as several delicious recipes. Written in simple-to-understand language, Paleo in a Nutshell is all you need to find your way back to a healthier and more natural way of living.

Special Diet

Geoff Bond’s book "Natural Eating" surprises us by questioning many fondly held beliefs. Human beings have forgotten how they should be feeding themselves. Instead we are misled by the nutritional establishment which is blinkered by poor science, cultural conditioning, and by commercial vested interests. The book cuts through the hype, misinformation and confusion to teach the basic, simple truth about how humans should be feeding themselves. It is neither just a quick fix nor a new diet; it is much more – it is a way of life! It will change the practitioner’s life around. It will optimize his life chances for health, vitality and longevity. It avoids the health destroying distortions of fad diets. Many people want to eat right but are confused by the conflicting messages. Natural Eating gives us the tools to see the truth clearly. It all becomes simple when we make our decisions based on the knowledge of what it means to be a human being. We now know the origins of the human species, its ideal feeding pattern and how we can emulate this in today’s world. There are many surprises. Many foods that both the public and conventional nutritionists consider a normal, even essential part of the diet, are making us sick. We need to sharply reduce them, even ban them completely. We need to give more emphasis to others. As Geoff Bond says "our Pleistocene ancestors KNEW they were living in a dangerous place. Today, we are like lambs to the slaughter. The average supermarket is just as dangerous a place to find food as the savannahs of East Africa. We need to be just as skilful as our ancestors in making wise choices." "Natural Eating" is already highly popular in Europe and is being published in several languages.

Natural Eating: Eating in Harmony With Our Genetic Programming Deep Down You Know It Makes Sense! : The Bond Effect

Paleo means Free-From: dairy, gluten, sugar (sucrose), soy, bad fats, wheat and grains. It is Diabetic-friendly, low GI and low carb. We have designed all these recipes to conform to the principles of eating in harmony with our Paleolithic past. That is, they are in accordance with the basic guidelines formulated by nutritional anthropologist Geoff Bond in his book Deadly Harvest. So when you follow these recipes you know that you are doing the right thing by yourself and your family. This way of life does not need you to eat in an outlandish way. Your dinner guests will be surprised to find that they have been eating what seem like conventional dishes. Only you will know what subtle, yet vital changes in ingredients – and in cooking – you have made. THE PRINCIPLES Nature fashioned our bodies to be nourished in a particular kind of way – one that is special to us humans. However, for many generations, we have meddled in a state of ignorance with our food supply. The results have not always been happy ones, leading to ‘diseases of civilization’, like cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis and diabetes. Geoff's book ‘Deadly Harvest’ (see back page) describes how this happened and how we finally know the right way to feed us humans – or as he puts it: “how to put the right gas in the tank”! There are many surprises. We learn that many foodstuffs that we take for granted are secretly undermining our health. But the message is an optimistic one: we do not need to be ‘food fascists’ – we just need to prioritize what is important and what is not. In this cookbook we focus on the important issues. Thus you will find that the emphasis is on removing ‘bad carbs’ and ‘bad fats’ and privilege the ‘good’ ones. Consumption of fruits, salads and vegetables should be high. We aim to keep the intake of these up at around 75% of the diet and protein-rich foods down to 25%. Of course sugar is a recent menace in our food supply and we substitute it with safe alternatives. We strive to keep sodium (salt) low and potassium high. This happens quite naturally with the high intake of plant food but, in addition, we avoid processed food and keep added salt to a minimum. On the other hand, we obtain sumptuous flavors from the liberal use of aromatic herbs, fresh if possible. We avoid ‘non-human’ foods that give our bodies trouble with allergic substances (like ‘gluten’ and ‘lactose’), and ‘antinutrients’ in plants that are foreign to our bodies. (Antinutrients are naturally occurring poisons that plants make to fight off germs and funguses.) All this might seem quite unusual, but in practice all we are doing is clearing out foods that have been making us sick for generations and replacing them with ones that work in harmony with our bodies. We invite anyone who is interested in knowing the background to these guidelines to check out Geoff's book, ‘Deadly Harvest’ (see back page).
