One of the biggest problems causing skin diseases is all the junk that we put into our bodies. You know things that are fried, things that have chemicals, things that have been heated to high temperatures, and things that have a variety of toxins from preservatives to colorings to pesticides, all this kind of stuffs. So the idea of a Paleo diet is going back to kind of a cave man type time when there were limited amounts of grains available, when people were mostly eating berries and nuts and fresh leaves that were growing and in season. And also they were eating meat when that arrived at the kill, which wasn't everyday, not in the refrigerator; and fish of course.
So the paleo diet is a conceptual way of going back to more basics. Of course if you look at the information on paleo diets, people have things that cave men would never have eaten like muffins made out of wild grains. I mean I highly doubt if they were having too much of that. But the idea of a paleo diet is taking away all those things in modern life that could be causing trouble and going back to a basic diet which is very similar to the cave man diet which is very similar to the Mediterranean diet. Only the paleo diet would probably have almost no grains, almost no beans and of course no gluten which is a grain. So this takes away a lot of the products that were causing trouble for people in various ways.
So there is definitely some sense to that but you got to watch how people are putting that together and what they are allowing in it. Certainly most paleo diets are not going to work if they are vegan because I don't think many cave men were able to avoid eating what the kill was eating even that only occurred every month. So for a lot of people getting away from those things and getting on to a diet that is filled with fresh fruits and vegetable and fresh meat and fish could be a big bonus in helping their skin.
