They were also free from degenerative diseases known in our time, such as diabetes, osteoporosis, and cardiac disorders. The secret was revealed to be simple. Their overall fitness and health were due to their easy-paced lifestyle and the food they ate.
Today, this regimen is otherwise known as the Paleo diet. It is also otherwise known as the caveman's, the stone age, or the hunter-gatherer's diet. This nutritional program uses the same type of food that was eaten during the age of the Paleolithic men 10,000 years ago. It focuses on the ordinary food that you eat every day. Most of the components are inclusive of meat, seafood, eggs, fresh and dried fruits, raw vegetables, unsweetened almond milk, nuts and seeds, coconut milk, water, oils from plants, and other beverages.
