Paleo Foundation[edit | edit source]
The Paleo Foundation is an international organization dedicated to the promotion and certification of Paleo Diet and Paleo Lifestyle. The foundation was established with the aim of assisting individuals in making informed decisions about their dietary and lifestyle choices, particularly those who follow the Paleo Diet.
History[edit | edit source]
The Paleo Foundation was established in the early 21st century, during a time when the Paleo Diet was gaining popularity. The foundation was created to provide a source of reliable information about the diet and to certify products that meet the strict guidelines of the Paleo Diet.
Mission[edit | edit source]
The mission of the Paleo Foundation is to promote the Paleo Diet and lifestyle through education, advocacy, and certification. The foundation aims to help individuals make informed decisions about their dietary and lifestyle choices, and to ensure that products labeled as "Paleo" meet strict guidelines.
Paleo Diet[edit | edit source]
The Paleo Diet is a dietary plan based on foods similar to what might have been eaten during the Paleolithic era, which dates from approximately 2.5 million to 10,000 years ago. The diet typically includes lean meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds — foods that in the past could be obtained by hunting and gathering.
Paleo Lifestyle[edit | edit source]
The Paleo Lifestyle is a way of living that attempts to closely mimic the life of human beings during the Paleolithic era. This lifestyle includes not only dietary choices, but also physical activity, sleep, and stress management.
Certification[edit | edit source]
The Paleo Foundation offers a certification program for products that meet the guidelines of the Paleo Diet. The certification process involves a thorough review of the product's ingredients and manufacturing processes to ensure they adhere to the strict guidelines set by the foundation.
