What does Paleo mean? Paleo refers to a diet that is based on the Old Stone Age, the Paleolithic period, which is why it is also called the “Stone Age diet” or “Stone Age diet”. Paleo is based on the principles of hunters and gatherers of the past, whose eating habits are imitated with the corresponding foods of today. The focus of this diet is on high-quality food and sustainability. The foods that have been used in modified form by the human species since the beginning of evolution, which lasted around 2.5 million years, are the central pillars. They provide our organism with an optimal supply of all important nutrients.
