Carb Dieting Secrets
5. NeanderThin Diet
Ray Audette, the author of NeanderThin touts his diet as a way to “Eat
like a caveman to achieve a lean, strong, healthy body”. At the
tender age of 33, Audette suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and
diabetes. After hearing from doctors that his condition was
treatable but not curable, Audette decided to undertake nutritional
research to find a better cure.
His research led him to adopt a “Paleolithic”, hunter-gatherer diet,
like that eaten by our human ancestors before they settled in agrarian
societies. Within one week, his blood sugar levels were normal
and after one month he had lost 25 pounds, his arthritic pain was
relieved and he noticed improved muscle tone.
According to Audette, our Paleolithic ancestors where much healthier
and lived longer, healthier lives than our agrarian Neolithic
ancestors. He states that Neolithic man was shorter, had poorer
dental health and was prone to obesity than Paleolithic man.
Women also began to menstruate earlier and have more children closer
together causing population increases that further encouraged agrarian
lifestyles.
He suggests that modern man should become modern hunter-gathers by
eliminating foods that need human intervention to become edible.
These foods include milk, grains, beans, potatoes, alcohol and
sugar. Grains include all wheat, corn, rice, oats, barley, and
rye. He also subscribes to the theory that these carbs produce
cravings and warns that if they are consumed they will cause eventual
binging.
Audette’s rule of thumb is that if a fruit or vegetable is edible raw
without processing, then it is safe in the NeanderThin diet. He
explains that many vegetables, like potatoes, are actually poisonous if
not properly stored and treated with fungicide. He further
encourages eating fruits when they are in season and limiting winter
intake of fruit to help the body burn stored fat.
He gives Ten Commandments. Condensed, they are:
Do eat: meats and fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds,
berries
Don’t eat: grains, beans, potatoes, dairy, and sugar
