You're wrong Luch.

The actual diet of hunter/gatherer populations is no more than 30% meat, often less. The Paleo diet is mostly potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables, some greens some grains and a little meat. NOT "lots of meat".

Bear in mind that gathering historically has been far more effective than hunting.

That being said, one can easily see that it isn't a "low carb" diet whatsoever. It is a somewhat more natural diet, one that goes back beyond agriculture added a steady grain source to the human diet (10,000 years ago) and involves no dairy (which was only added 5,000 years ago).

Your friends may *think* they are doing a Paleo diet, however they're actually doing the same old lowcarb Atkins thing. Lose the meats, load up on roots and tubers. THAT is the paleo diet.

Paleo diets are best at resolving digestion problems. if *calorie contained* they do work well for weight loss, but don't necessarily do that without limiting consumption.
