PRACTICAL PALEO BOOK REVIEW

PRACTICAL PALEO BOOK REVIEW BY WENDY BOTTRELL
When I began my own gluten free-living journey, I was looking for a resource that would make it very easy to learn and make the necessary changes to a gluten free lifestyle. I had been doing quite a bit of reading of the paleo lifestyle and it seemed this would be a very easy way of living for me to get started with.
As I was looking at the few options for books, Practical Paleo, by Diane Sanfilippo jumped out because I liked the way the author came to the paleo lifestyle. Although our life stories are not identical, I could definitely relate to the challenges she had gone through. Therefore, she takes us on the journey of how she came to live the practical paleo lifestyle and how her health improved. Eighteen months ago, that is exactly what I was looking for, improved health and weight loss.
I also appreciate how the author explains that the practical paleo is not a diet, it is a lifestyle. When living wheat, grains and gluten free because of gluten sensitivity or celiac disease you realize how very important it is to make changes for good health first and foremost. Any other benefits of those changes are simply a bonus.
Therefore, if like me you are ready for a healthy change, yet want and need an easy to use guidebook then Practical Paleo may be a resource for you.

What you will learn inside the Practical Paleo book:
Section 1 - The Why - Food & Your Body - this section is essential to understanding why paleo might be a solution for good health. The author explains, "What paleo is" and how to make it work for you day to day. She then goes on to help in the getting started with the basics - I found this section to be most useful because of the tear out guides -Invaluable when starting. Recommendations - very powerful and you may be surprised. Going out socially can be a challenge when living gluten free and the section on Eating out is awesome. You will not want to miss this section. We are learning more and more about the importance of good digestion for our health. The digestion section is very thorough and will help if you are having health problems because of poor digestion.
Section 2 - 30 Day Meal Plans I think this is one of the most important sections because she provides different Meal plans for different health challenges that include, Autoimmune Conditions, Blood Sugar Regulation, Digestive Health - Celiac Disease, Thyroid Health, Neurological Health, Heart Health, Cancer Recovery, Athletic Performance, Fat Loss, Squeaky Clean Paleo.
Section 3 - Recipes This is my most favorite section because Dianne has provided some delicious, easy to make recipes. My favorites so far are the Pumpkin Pancakes (can I just say Yummy) and the Spaghetti Squash Bolognese.

So there you have it. For me the reason I use the practical paleo approach is that it is simple and easy. Yet no matter if you are gluten sensitive, celiac or not there is some very good information to help you learn why the paleo lifestyle may benefit you and your family, some very delicious recipes as well as the tear out guides that provide the resource when shopping, cooking and going out to eat.
I would highly suggest getting this book and having it in your health library. Wendy Bottrell Gluten Free Living http://wendybottrell.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Wendy_Bottrell
