Living A Cliff-Side Life

Paleo Diet, Primal Diet, the Caveman Diet, all these are synonymous with a growing trend in health through diet. Most healing modalities stress diet as the primary source of health and healing, but in this day and age of the "Standard American Diet" or SAD, healthful living seems to move further and further away from many peoples' grasp. Why is there such a disconnect between modern medicine and the health of Americans and other Westerners? How have we made such profound advances in technology and medicine, only to be failing at a fundamental level?  Diabetes and autoimmune disorders seem to be rampant and increasing. The interconnection between a failure to help people to recover from diabetes and other autoimmune dysfunctions leads to the ever-skyrocketing costs of insurance and medical care.

How did we end up at this point?

What if simple dietary changes and other simple, inexpensive therapies could reverse these conditions and lead people back to a life of health and abundance?

These are the kinds of things I intend to explore with this blog.

I'm learning about and implementing paleo diet principals into my own life and seeing profound change. If such change can happen so quickly, how might it help people who are really ill?

My curiosity is also piqued by wondering how paleo principals and cooking might affect overall health when living and training at altitude.

Join me in exploring this lifestyle and diet approach, and how it can be used to improve health and performance.  This is a new road for me, and I'm very curious about the sorts of challenges and intriguing things I will discover.

Welcome!
