re: Anyone tried the Paleo diet?

From what little research I've done and from talking to my friends doing the Paleo thing, I really can't say it should be considered a fad diet. At it's core, it seems like a good approach to healthier eating. Of course I will never follow anything very strictly.

Then do more research and try using primary sources when you do. As it is promoted, it is a fad. People touting it as a reason for their rapid initial weight loss generally seem to conveniently forget that happens anytime you get your lazy arse moving and start eating a bit better regardless of a specific diet. People are making money promoting these diets because they know most people don't have the education to question the claims and do their own homework.
