Paleo diet ranked worst diet plan for second straight year
Posted on 1/8/14 at 8:28 am
Posted on 1/8/14 at 8:28 am
Out of 32 diets voted on by doctors and nutritionists
When will these cult douche bags realize that it's not that great?
My neighbor pushes paleo and crossfit on me every week and I just want to tell him to stfu
He is always eating this paleo shite that he made that is terrible for you. He makes this nut mix that has honey and nectar in it and I swear it probably has 300-400 calories per handful
What a bunch of douches

I'll admit I do crossfit but Paleo is dumb. Seriously, like I'm gonna put down fricking cheese for the rest of my life. GTFO with

it's the most effective.

Paleo has become such a brand that its now a shell of what it once was.
We eat veggies, meat, some fruit, dairy (some paleo disagree with this), eggs etc. Really only thing we cut out is sugar and most grains. I don't even go into it with others, it just boils down to cutting out most processed food. If others think that's a bad thing then you are an idiot.
Calories do matter but they are not the end all be all.

Don't see Ideal Protein anywhere in the rankings.

Because if something so simple worked. they're out of a job. At least nutritionists.
And Salmon is right. That's exactly what I do as well. All of the "Paleo" stuff is ridiculous but eating greens and proteins that aren't processed is probably a good idea.
And it is more to do with insulin control (actually), than eating "Paleo" that works.

Because vegetables and lean meat is so terrible for you.

A couple I know has been on the diet for about 9 months. They were both way over weight. She has lost about 100 lbs and he has lost a bit more than that. Neither exercises at all. Not saying this is the right approach, but the results seem to work for them.

yea eating fresh lean meats, fruits, and veggies is terrible for you.... 
anybody that says it is not a good diet is dumb.
and it is ranked last because most assume its dificult to adhere to, but its not if you have just a little will power and keep it simple. lean meats, fressh fruits and veggies....really how hard is that? its the way your instincts tell you to eat.

Crossfit is stupid but paleo is not the worst. They rank it that low every year because "It's hard to follow"
Yeah... Eating a ton on veggies, some fruit and nuts (so to speak) and lean meats must be soooo bad for you.

Eat meats, fruits, and vegetables - and eat all you want - and the weight will fall off.
I have done it before and I am doing it again. It works and is really simple. Stay away from processed foods, bread, sugar, cheese, and dairy and it is pretty incredible how much weight you can lose.

Yea....you should just follow the USDA's recommendations. That's the best advice. Look at where it has brought us.
In seriousness, I don't subscribe to a formal diet, but paleo generally has good advice. They exclude some things that I view as extreme (dairy, legumes, etc.), but overall it is a whole food diet plan. Every trend has idiots or people that find loopholes to do stupid things (ie the honey granola comment above), but most medical guidelines for diets include some questionable advice.....such as promoting whole grains and restricting dietary fat for people with diabetes.
Nutrition is a discipline that offers completely contradictory opinions from qualified authorities who use data that supports their claims. Most subjects aren't black and white....just a lot of gray.

Dunno about paleo but can't deny crossfit is effective. I guess it can get cultish and can cause injuries but otherwise its jut an intense workout that will work

All I see as far as the "best" are commercially powered diets. Diets that you have to buy into via a company.
Article is BS.
Truth is a hard thing to come by in a world where corporations and lawyers buy off the government, and also doctors (see Big Pharma).

Now, why would doctors and nutritionists support anything that goes against the status quo sickcare/healthygrain/statis/CHD money machine?
Hmmm...
Show me again how it's good to eat grains when they spike your insulin like a goddamn candy bar?
Show me how much grain humans have eaten relative to their tenure on this planet (say ~200000 years in modern form). What, maybe 5% of that time have humans been cultivating grain.
If they 'food pyramid' diet recommended by these doctors and nutritionists is so healthy, then why are so many Americans sick and obese?
Are you trying to say that anyone who questions the status quo is an idiot?
I think you are. That is known in intelligent circles an ad-hominem attack. You can go google that and figure out why it makes you look foolish and damages your argument. Well, that and your appeal to authority.
All I know is eating low carb has resulted in me being healthier and feeling better. Numbers better. Fat lower. And I eat all the bacon, butter, red meat, cheese, and eggs I can.
I don't feel hungry between meals, my blood sugar is stable. At 46 I'm not any prescription meds, unlike so many of my peers who adhere to the 'healthy diet' you point out in your link to obvious propaganda.
If you can't understand why people who are making a fortune off of your ignorance would lie to you so they could continue to milk that ignorance, then I pity you.
It may be that you're someone who's benefiting directly from the high-sugar, high carb, low fat poison diet? Sell pharmaceuticals? Medical devices? Nutritionist? Doctor? Nurse? Pharmacist? Health insurance worker? .Gov worker?
Come on, fess up.
Anybody with a brain can turn off the propaganda, do their own research, then figure out the optimum diet for themselves.
Believing something because it comes from the mainstream media, without doing any further research, belies either your ignorance or the fact that you are a shill for something deadly.
No thanks.
Keep eating your hydrogenated oils, hfcs, refined flours, and low fat foods and see where you end up; and how many prescriptions you'll need to be on just to function at a low level.
After all, that's what most people do, right?
Look around you and your own eyes will tell you the truth.

I have Crohns disease and for a year and a half, it was getting worse and worse. My diet was not great but I was taking my pills and they were not working. My doctor wanted to escalate me to giving myself a shot every two weeks in the stomach area. I said, "frick that!" My good friend did some research and found a book called "Breaking The Vicious Cycle: Intestinal Health Through Diet." It explains the diet and provides a list of do's and don't's. The diet is called the Specific Carbohydrate Diet but is nearly identical to the Paleo Diet.
I began to feel better almost immediately. I went back to my gastroenterologist about a month and a half after that and brought the book. He was incredibly skeptical and began demeaning the book by reflex. But I was feeling way better (all pain and other symptoms were gone). He took my blood as usual. When I returned a few months later, he said my blood work showed my Crohns had improved dramatically and that he had been recommending that book to all of his other patients.
While just one anecdote, it shows that even a gastroenterologist is dismissive of a good diet that works because it is new to them or they may not understand it. The paleo diet basically changed my life. For the first time since being diagnosed 11 years ago, I have control of my Crohns.

I like to carb cycle. During the week eating nothing but meat, veggies and fats. Working out during depletes glycogen to set up fat mobilization and burning. Weekend comes, carb load for a few days. I don't know why people keep fats low, they're essential for hormone production which is nice to have while dieting.
