“Humans are the only species that still drink baby milk through to adult-hood.”

I’ve always thought this was a lame argument. The only reason other species don’t continue drinking milk, is because Momma forces them off her tits. Then she dries up.

“Raw milk may be better than pasteurized”

They don’t even compare. As far as I’m concerned, pasteurized milk is not even food. It’s a food product. No different than sugary cereal.

There is absolutely nothing un-paleo about sweet potatoes. Eat them.

“We advocate that Paleo Athletes obtain their carbs from non-grain sources such as yams, sweet potatoes, fruits, fresh fruit juices, dried fruit and vegetables.” ~ Professor Cordain

Even hard core paleos know milk is the way you add beef. They use it to make their gains, whether you hear about it or not. Do bodybuilders admit to using roids? Ever seen the bodies of a hunter gatherers? They’re not a beefy bunch

P.S. I thought I had lactose intolerance. I went no dairy for a while until I found out it was only pasteurized that gave me problems.

Thanks for the tips.

I used to live off milk and ate plenty of sweet potatoes. I learned a long time ago that dairy, meat and certain other foods would help my gain weight very quickly.

My goal with this transition is to follow as close as I can the foods recommended by the Paleodiet. I understand your desire to continue with dairy consumption. It tastes great! and it’s packed with plenty of calories and protein.

Humans are the only species that still drink baby milk through to adult-hood. (And we drink another species milk) Raw milk may be better than pasteurized, but our ancestors had no access to either one until the age of farming.

Here’s a great list of Paleo foods: http://altmed.creighton.edu/paleodiet/Foodlist.html

Again, thanks for the tips. I had never heard of Chia seeds for consumption before your site. I have some coming in the mail tomorrow. Can’t wait to try them out!

Take care,

J

1.) Eat more

2.) Why did you ditch the sweet potatoes? They’re perfectly ok and primal despite what anyone says; unless you’re trying to lose (which you’re not).

3.) Add dairy for an easy way to boost calories. Heavy cream, sour cream, fatty cheeses, butter. Generously add it to everything.

4.) Drink RAW milk. As much as you can afford.

5.) Upping fruit will put weight on you, but I can’t really recommend it.

Slightly less on a primal diet, but calories do matter!

Love your website! Glad to see someone still hunting out there. Whitetail season is the one thing that usually brings be back home every year. Question? Most of your transition info pertains to those wanting to “lose” weight. I’m trying to gain some back. I’m down about 20 lbs from what I would consider average weight for me. Any suggestions on calorie rich Paleo meals or best type of fat intake. Without my sweet potatoes, brown rice, wheat bread, pasta and milk I’m wasting away! It’s the end of week 2 for me and I def. need soem advice!

Thanks,
Jeremy

Other things I’ve noticed to help: Fasting, when I drink more ACV, and staying away from nightshades (lots of tomatoes specifically).

Cod liver oil made a big difference too. I started that back before primal. I recently upped my dose to 3Tbsp a day since I’m starting to Tri train again.

I’m dieting right through Thanksgiving on The 6WC So it will be a medium sized portion of dark turkey, some salad and Kombucha for me.

Once I stopped baking “paleo treats” on a regular basis (and using them for snacks), things got a whole lot easier. I could probably go back to eating them with control, but why? I’m happy with my delicious boring meat and vegetables

Thanks!
