Your Guide to Paleo: It’s Here!

After announcing the release of Your Guide to Paleo on Thursday, it’s been so exciting to hear everyone’s reactions. And now the Guide itself is actually here! Now you can finally have all the Paleo basics summarized in just 89 pages, laid out with professional illustrations and graphics to give you the key points at a glance, and designed for pleasant browsing or for quick reference when you have a question.

Inside the Guide, you’ll find an easy-to-use road map to Paleo, organized into 5 sections:

• Paleo nutrition: a need-to-know primer on the big three (protein, fat, and carbs), plus a few other critical nutrients you’ll probably want to keep an eye on.
• Paleo foods: what to eat and why (in plain English).
• Foods to avoid: what’s off the Paleo menu, and why.
• Paleo cooking: yes, it is possible without a personal chef!
• Paleo lifestyle: a quick rundown of all the non-nutritional factors that can help you reach your goals – or hold you back.

Each page features just one topic, so the Guide is convenient for quick reference, and even better for answering questions from friends and family who might be curious about your diet. As holiday visits start looming on the horizon, having a quick source for all those explanations could save you a lot of time and energy that you’d otherwise spend going over the same material again and again. Who knows: it might even help you convince someone to give Paleo a try!

The Guide itself is written to be completely understandable, but for the scientifically curious, it also features extensive references and a Further Reading section in the back, organized by topic and difficulty level. So when you’re ready to move past the basics, you’ll have a head start in the right direction.

Head on over to the Your Guide to Paleo page to get all the details, including a preview of what’s inside!
