if he is being truthful about everything he is saying he does, and I have no reason not to believe him that is incredible. do you realize if he wanted to he could probably finish the appliacian trail from start to finish in no time?

as for paleo diet, I have to say that link referring to if the neanderthal had access to it then eat it? I had to laugh at that one, pasta, ice cream wasn’t available at that time,that made me laugh even more, considering that people are basing a whole diet/exercise/health program on something that never even existed.

if you would do your research you would see they have no fossils of that apeman. in fact they have none of a apeman at all not even close. but we know dinosaurs existed, even tiny ones, surely if tiny dinosaurs fossils are found why not a greater size as a apeman? by their fossils remains and they have 1000′s of them around the world in musuems.

I would be leery of following a diet based on a fantasy picture of man’s distant past. besides how much meat does gorillas and chimps really comsume? most are vegetarians, chimps will eat some meat but eat mostly fruits, insects and seeds, pods etc.

I am all for a slow carb diet. considering that the lower the gi the more nutritious carbs are. the higher gi the less nutritious, that should tell you something.

I love a good hamburger too, but I tried to eat a low carb diet once a few years ago lasted about 3 months, couldn’t stick to it since I started to despise meat and wanted fruit. I am a big dairy lover despite advocates against it, but I don’t care what they think, I do better if I get plenty of eggs and milk (whole milk was a problem) but 2 percent was perfect and I just love cheese, don’t eat alot of it, can’t even if I tried. I like almond milk and coconut milk in my protein drinks.

I believe our bodies give us clues/cues as to what they need and try to tell us if we just listen to them.

I did however wonder about deans obessivness for running or ability to run so long. I mean how many people can run night and day covering 100-300 miles? also I wonder if he has a defect in survival instincts that stop you (called central fatigue) when your overdoing it, maybe his is turned off? maybe that is the problem with these master athelets they lack the survival triggors that stop them from over doing it? that is why you find them dead on the side of the road during training.

they don’t have a shut off button don’t know they are tired and are destroying their body without knowing, it, kind of like people born without pain receptors they can break a bone and not know it.
