Julianne Taylor on the David Shearer  show

For hundreds of thousands of years, humans were hunters and gatherers.

Our bodies evolved under the regime of that lifestyle – the food and type of exercise. Today, we eat totally different foods, many more grains for example, than we did then. We also exercise less – and differently.

This week on the David Shearer Show, I speak to Julianne Taylor, a nutritionist, about Paleo eating – a diet based on the sort of foods that our ancestors ate and on which our bodies developed.

Support for this approach is having remarkable pick up internationally – and from a wide range of scientific sources. And, the impact this type of eating is having on obesity, type 2 diabetes and other illnesses is remarkable.
