While the modern world is engaging more into the modern day diet management, paleo diet is becoming popular because it may help loosing weight.Researchers have argued that,paleo diet is not the only diet to consider in this modern times because the nutritional needs and availability of foods have changed over the period of time.Some clinical experts have argued that,paleo diet is not enough for the overall health of human body considering the geographical changes and nutritional needs.
While Paleolithic diet consists of some high protein,high fiber foods such as vegetables,eggs,nuts, berries, the overall nutrition is restricted for long term health as foods such as legumes,oils and other important elements are excluded.As there are no such clear evidence about the health risks or benefits of paleo diet, it is always recommended to follow any particular diet in supervision of a dietician or clinical expert.
