Book called "Sweet Potato Power" on Amazon. Excellent companion to other Paleo books and everything you might want to know about sweet potatoes. I read the damn thing cover to cover and have been carrying it around this week for "fun" reading.

Do you realize that whole grains contribute to leaky gut? Lectins in legumes and glutin grains punch holes in your small intestine and cause autoimmune issues like acne. And worse conditions like thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis etc. The point of Paleo is to heal your body of those issues. Every time you go back to eating gluten grains you basically undo everyday you’ve achieved.

There is no such thing as healthy whole grains. If you want a high fiber high carb Paleo food try sweet potatoes. There’s a great book out called “Sweet Potato Power”. It’s by Ashley Tudor and you can read the reviews here

I have the paperback version becausei don’t like using an iPad as a cookbook but there’s a kindle version as well.

I need to slim down but I’m not about to do so by consuming factory farmed foods and gluten grains. A low carb Paleo diet can be very healthy because the worst foods in the SAD are eliminated. I’ve done Paleo for many years off and on but never ever added grains back. I make cereal from nuts and use a gum free milk substitute. Harder and harder to find. I use grass fed butter in my coffee and rarely some raw milk cheeses. I’m of a northern European background — Scots Irish and some Scandinavian background. Those groups were the first to start to use dairy in their diets. I’ve done a DNA 23andme so I know my ethnicity. I don’t have trouble with dairy like people of Mediterranean area descent who frequently have digestive issues. But I’m not ever going to start eating factory dairy. I buy Kerrigold exclusively and eat only imported goat an sheep cheeses. This sort of eating is generally Primal not Paleo. There are four food groups I never ever ever consume:
Solvent extracted industrial oils like canola or soy or corn meaning only home made mayo.
Legumes of any sort including any products containing peanuts.
Wheat and its friends rye and oatmeal
Saponins like quinoa.

When I went Paleo my adult acne vanished.
