In “Wheat Belly” Dr. William Davis, a preventative cardiologist, helps us to understand the multi-faceted, widespread and far-reaching problems with the so-called “staff of life” that has come to dominate the landscape of American food.

While in Atlanta back in July to teach a Practical Paleo Seminar at CrossFit South Cobb, I had the great pleasure of sitting down to dinner at Canoe with Julie & Charles Mayfield, authors of the exciting new cookbook, Paleo Comfort Foods.

Make applesauce! At my office, we are lucky enough to get a CSA delivery of fruit and nuts every week. We get fresh, seasonal fruit to snack on while we’re working, but sometimes we don’t make it through all of the older fruit before the new delivery comes. So…rather than chuck out the older, slightly less than perfect fruit, I …
A few of you have asked me to clarify what I meant by calling foods “non-foods” in my last posting. Here are some requirements to consider before calling something a food.
