Throughout this interview, we’ll discuss the Paleo diet and lifestyle of our ancestors. Nora speaks about the diseases of modern civilization that arrived once we adopted agriculture. She’ll talk about the changes in the human body that have occurred since the grain diet and she elaborates on the damaging effects of eating grain. We’ll also discuss the food and IQ connection and why the right kind of fat is essential for a healthy brain. Later, she discusses the brain/stress connection and the importance of a healthy nervous system. In the second hour, we’ll discuss the major issues with the low-fat trend and a vegetarian diet. She’ll address issues like hormone balance, blood sugar, ph, cravings and taking supplements. Later, we discuss “nose to tail” eating and Nora gives us some tips on what to eat, where to find recipes and how to cook the Paleo way.Relevant Links
