In "The Paleo Manifesto: Ancient Wisdom for Lifelong Health,"
John Durant argues for an evolutionary - and "revolutionary" -
approach to health. All animals, human or otherwise, thrive when
they mimic key elements of life in their natural habitat. From diet
to movement to sleep, this evolutionary perspective sheds light on
some of our most pressing health concerns. What is causing the rise
of chronic conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, and depression?
Is eating red meat going to kill you? Is avoiding the sun actually
the best way to avoid skin cancer?
Durant takes readers on a thrilling ride to the Paleolithic and
beyond, unlocking the health secrets of our ancient ancestors. What
do obese gorillas teach us about weight loss? How can Paleolithic
skulls contain beautiful sets of teeth? Why is the Bible so
obsessed with hygiene? What do NASA astronauts teach us about
getting a good night's sleep? And how are Silicon Valley techies
hacking the human body?
Blending science and culture, anthropology and philosophy, John
Durant distills the lessons from his adventures and shows how to
apply them to day-to-day life, teaching people how to construct
their own personal "habitat" that will enable them to thrive. The
book doesn't just address what we eat, but why we eat it; not just
how to exercise, but the purpose of functional movement; not just
being healthy, but leading a purposeful life.
Combining the best of ancient wisdom with cutting edge science,
Durant crafts a vision of health that is both fresh and
futuristic.
