Eat Nutrient-Rich Foods

The first step to living a Paleo lifestyle is to get rid of all those nutrient-deficient grains and legumes from your diet and eat real food with lots of nutrients. When it comes to eating nutrient-dense foods, you can’t go wrong with kale, since it is the most nutritious plant available to us. It comes loaded with vitamins A, C, E, and various B vitamins, not to mention manganese, calcium, and potassium, all of which are necessary for maintaining various aspects of our health.

The Health Benefits

In addition to all those wonderful nutrients, kale comes loaded with antioxidants. Specifically, organo-sulfur phytonutrients that are thought to help fight cancer by activating detoxifying enzymes in the liver. So the next time you see a big bunch of kale at your local farmer’s market, grab it, take it home and make a big kale salad, or better yet, kale chips!

The Hype is Warranted

Kale has gotten a lot of attention in the press lately for being a superfood and this is one case where conventional wisdom got it right. Even Mark Sisson labeled it a smart fuel.
