Paleo Summit News: Day One with Mark Sisson & Diane Sanfilippo!

February 26th, 2012

by Sean Croxton

The Paleo Summit is officially underway!

I’m pretty pumped about sharing all 23 of these outstanding presentations with you over the next 8 days.

Today’s presentations are by Primal Blueprint author Mark Sisson and author of the soon-to-be-released book, Practical Paleo, Diane Sanfilippo.

I purposely had Mark and Diane lead off the summit, because in order to follow the Paleo lifestyle, you have to know what exactly to eat and also have a solid understanding of proper implementation while having the right expectations.

In his presentation entitled Ancestral Living Defined, Mark lays the foundation for what foods are allowed — and not allowed — and why. He also tackles common Paleo questions like:

* Is dairy considered Paleo?
* Did hunter-gatherers avoid saturated fats?
* How much fruit is too much?

In Diane’s presentation, Practical Paleo Implementation, she covers the nuts and bolts of how to actually DO the diet. Her discussion is full of useful information regarding how long it takes for Paleo eating to become second nature, how to deal with the haters, overcoming common obstacles, and how to dine out the Paleo way.

We’ve got SEVEN more days of these presentations. Tune in tomorrow for presentations by Dr. Jack Kruse, Sarah Fragoso, and Erwan Le Corre.

Technical Issues

We had issues with the video player during the first 7-8 hours of launch. This has now been fixed, as the videos have been re-posted in YouTube format, which allows you to watch them on your iPad and smart phones.

The comment section is admittedly horrible. Some time today, we will be installing a comment app that allows for Facebook comments and does not refresh the page when comments are submitted.

Due to these technical challenges, I will leave today’s presentations up for an additional 12 hours (until noon PST Monday) before removing them from the site.

What if You Miss a Presentation?

Later on this week, we will make the entire set of summit video presentations, audio files, transcripts, and bonus ebooks and videos available at a very affordable price. Be on the lookout!

Enjoy Day One of the Summit!

    Legumes:
    Nutritional facts

    Legumes contain relatively low quantities of the essential amino acid methionine – however, this should not be a problem if an adequate amount of protein is consumed.

    According to the protein combining theory, legumes should be combined with another protein source such as a GRAIN in the same meal, to balance out the amino acid levels. Protein combining has lost favor as as theory (with even its original proponent, Frances Moore Lappé, rejecting the need for protein combining in 1981[3]) – a variety of protein sources is considered healthy, but these do not have to be consumed at the same meal. In any case, vegetarian cultures often serve legumes along with grains, which are low in the essential amino acid lysine, creating a more complete protein than either the beans or the grains on their own.
    Common examples of such combinations are dal with rice by Indians, and beans with corn tortillas, tofu with rice, and peanut butter with wheat bread.

    CAN YOU BELIEVE?

    THEY WANT US TO EAT SOME MORE PROTEIN WITH LEGUMES BUT THAT PROTEIN SEEMS TO BE GRAINS!! (O_0)’ ARENT GRAINS MORE CARBOHIDRATES THEN THEY ARE PROTEINS??
