Just remember: it only works if you don't understand evolution or nutrition.--Token Conservative (talk) 01:39, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

Dr Loren is referred to as a 'she' and 'her' under the topic of Nutritional claims

End of first paragraph 'her'. Second paragraph 'she'. Loren Cordain is a dude. I haven't edited it as I'm not involved with this wiki but noticed it while reading. Would probably look more credible if the writers knew the person's sex. ;-) ^{— Unsigned, by: Déor / talk / contribs} 11:46 (UTC) 10 October 2013

Fixed it, thanks. Did I miss any? Sprocket J Cogswell (talk) 12:37, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

There's quite a lot in PubMed now. Is Publication bias relevant?

1. Nrf2, a master regulator of detoxification and also antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other cytoprotective mechanisms, is raised by health promoting factors. Seems to suggest a paleodiet could have anti inflammatory effects. Can anyone understand the complex scientific jargon?
2. Plant-rich mixed meals based on Palaeolithic diet principles have a dramatic impact on incretin, peptide YY and satiety response, but show little effect on glucose and insulin homeostasis: an acute-effects randomised study.
3. Characterising the reproducibility and reliability of dietary patterns among Yup'ik Alaska Native people.
4. There's much more.

Another point for the discussion

Paleo-people would have had more interaction with 'nits and less pleasant parasites and nasties, and also [1]'

There does appear to be a case for going for 'plainer foods' rather than 'highly processed ones' (apart from 'food gathered from near a motorway or other likely source of pollutants, Polar bear livers etc). 82.44.143.26 (talk) 17:54, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

"Western diet"

Proxima added this term.Does the term have any meaning? That construct called "the West" is culturally diverse, and economic inequality plays a key role in shaping diet. Rich people in France and poor people in Ohio both eat a "Western diet," but probably rarely eat the same foods. Does anyone who actually knows something about food have a better way to think/write what's going on here? Peace. AgingHippie (talk) 13:26, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
