Different Types of Diets

Throughout this blog, you will see me reference my meals as "paleo" or "semi". Below are elaborated explanations of those diet terms
DISCRETION: I am not a health care provider or registered dietician. These are merely some components of popular diets that I chose to incorporate in my daily life. I DO NOT follow any of these to tee.  Please contact a physician before you consider any new health care regimen. 

Gluten Free: This diet is often times mistake for the paleo diet but unbeknownst to a lot of people, it is possible to follow a gluten free diets and NOT be paleo.

Please don't mistake the two.
