Just started Paleo 2-3 days ago and i can already tell a huge difference. It seems like whatever i put into my body is much more effective.

I know CD says Diet is the staple, and i believe. Problem with me for years has been giving up carbs and sugary stuff. So i'll stick with the paleo for now and hope to continue the positives. Found some great alternatives with it. Fruits are definitely a good substitute as well.
If you take up backloading, you don't have to give up carbs. Plus, it's fantastic for manipulating insulin and other hormones to your benefit. Look into it.
