Paleo Diet aka Caveman Diet

[snowpea]

 ask ko lang sa mga matagal na nag Paleo, nabawasan ba pimples niyo or may visible changes ba sa skin??? kasi i found out na i break out when eating dairy and sugary foods talaga.

bought 1L coconut oil today sa Cocowonder. anong best cooking oil na di masyado nakakaalter ng flavor ng food? olive oil is not suited for high-temp daw kasi.

also, san po makakabili ng almond flour?

TIA!!!

^ Oo. Napansin ko to. Meron pa ngang one time na 'that time of the month' came pero di ako nagkapimple. That has never happened before even if I was already using tretinoin and topical antibiotics.

I think wala kasi sa paleo yung mga pagkain that cause inflammation.

And dairy can indirectly affect androgen, the hormone that can cause pimples.

[snowpea]

^wow! kaya eager ako talaga i-push to, pati father ko kinoconvince ko na! lol

^^^ sadly, i didn't notice any change sa skin ko nung nag paleo ako. although a lot of people do say that your skin will break out less when you're on paleo.

i use vco for cooking. i like the flavor of the food pag vco yung gamit ko. you can buy almond flour sa chocolate lover and i think santi's din.

[snowpea]

^thanks! I'll try the new Santi's sa Ortigas.

I'm oil pulling (oil swishing) using VCO, sana may changes sa skin. :/ Will cook using it na rin since super mild naman yun flavor ng VCO ng Cocowonder.

YAY, meron palang ganitong thread. I just started this week mag 6 days na ako. I did go to Paleo not because I wanted to lose weight but because I really want to live healthly. No more rice and sugar for me. I'm glad I was able to pull it off.

^ good job sis! i learned a lot about food when i started doing paleo.

[Frozen Toes]

^ That's true. Matututo ka talaga magluto and mas maging conscious sa ingredients ng food pag naka-paleo ka. Kailangan kasi makahanap ng substitute sa mga non-paleo food (particularly desserts). Because of paleo, I learned how to bake brownies with no flour and butter.

But I'm not 100% paleo. Medyo costly kasi yung pagshift into a completely paleo lifestyle. Still, eto talaga ang best diet for me.

Ok, I know I have said this so many times, but back to Paleo. Ang hirap especially now I am based in a country na andaming carbs!

[beachgirl]

^ good for you sis! minsan mahirap din mag strict paleo lalo na kung yung mga kasama mo sa bahay hindi naman pareho yung diet sa yo.

^^ Loren Cordain naman allows some neolithic meals. Yung point lang naman is to eat paleo MOST of the time kung hindi kaya ang ALL the time

I made paleo bolognese over the weekend. I shredded baked squash for the "pasta" bit.

[beachgirl]

^^ yup sis 80% paleo ok na daw

^ that sounds yummy!

where do you buy you coco amino mga sis? I am currently using Bragg liquid amino but I read in the net that it's not gluten free daw.

[beachgirl]

^ i order from cocowonder. google them. they have a lot of other coconut products din.

[l_neveph]

Thank you sis. Will check their website kasi kahit coconut flour nahihirapan din ako maghanap.
Yesterday i had some pancit craving. And so i made buko pancit. Ang sarap! Without the guilt

[beachgirl]

^ you're welcome! do you have a recipe for that buko pancit?

[10don]

wanna try that buko pansit too!

Very interested with "relax" paleo. Rice and bread easier for me to let go. Mag lie low ako sa dairy kasi i love milk and cheese.

Have you cooked spaghetti? What did you use? I cook that for my kids for their merienda sometimes.

You don't eat biscuits na rin?

You can use a certain type of squash for your spaghetti noodles. We call it here spaghetti squash.
