About book The Paleo Diet Revised: Lose Weight And Get Healthy By Eating The Foods You Were Designed To Eat (2010)
I was surprisingly unimpressed. It was lacking an explanatory, logical scientific narrative. There were lots of dietary assertions made in sort of the "traditional" way, like "ABC GOOD, XYZ BAD." Many of them seemed a little outdated and debatable. I suppose the most interesting part of the book is that his references are at least extensive, so you can follow all that and make your own judgments. Good if you're looking for a VERY low-level introduction to this stuff... but even then, I'd probably recommend Robb Wolf's book instead. The writing style was on par with other diet/fitness books I have read. It got a little preachy at times, especially in knocking the Atkins diet (which is similar to the Paleo approach in several ways). I liked the idea that the Paleo diet encourages you to eat fruits, vegetables, and lean meats. I know that I am not the type of person who would give up all grains forever, but I could see doing so for a period of time and then adding back in the healthier grains as a "sometimes" food. We are currently gluten-free; we may attempt to do a more Paleo-inspired diet in the future. Honestly, though, it isn't really necessary to read the book to do so--just foucs on fruits, veggies, and lean meats, and avoid grains, sugar, processed foods, and legumes.

Kniha je plná velmi důležitých informací, ale vůbec se mi nelíbil styl, jakým je napsána.
