How much can you lose? (

There are many great things that the Paleo diet is capable of giving you. One of the best things involves the potential weight loss that you would be getting off of the diet.

You should be able to lose weight as long as you stick with the plan for the diet. This includes making sure that you stick with only the right foods and the right nutritional standards when handling the diet. Fortunately, the wide variety of foods that you can use on the diet should not make it too hard to work with.

You can lose
at least five to ten pounds within the first one or two months
after you get on the Paleo diet. This might not seem like too much but at the same time it will come from how you are eating healthier foods.

It’s also safer for you to lose weight at this rate than it would be if you were to go along with a crash diet. The rapid nutrient loss and dramatic starvation that you’d experience during a diet like this could be harmful.

Of course, everyone is going to have different responses to the Paleo diet with regards to weight loss. These will relate heavily to four important things:

1.
       
Your age; it might be easier for younger people to lose weight

2.
      
Your personal genetics

3.
      
Your metabolic rate

4.
     
Your health as it already is

Of course, you could have
better results through a healthy exercise program and through portion control
. Keeping your dining portions from being as large as they could be and staying physically active should make it easier for you to lose closer to fifteen to twenty pounds in about two months after getting on the diet.

Energy Levels

 

The energy levels that you will experience while on the diet will be better for you to work with than what you had prior to the diet. You will have more energy because of the healthy proteins that you are eating.

In addition, the lack of artificial sugars in the diet and an extreme reduction in toxins from the diet should be used to keep your body functioning as well as it possibly can. You might have an easier time with keeping your body from being worn out easily. You won’t be as likely to experience crashes either. This makes it all the more important for you to see how well the diet can be enjoyed.

Of course, much of this comes from the body controlling its eating habits to where you will not be likely to wear yourself out after eating. This could improve not only your ability to perform daily activities in life but also your ability to get a good night’s sleep.

You need to use this diet to make yourself feel more active and under control. The diet is made to make you feel your best and to be more likely to stay up and at them with everyone else out there.

State of Mind

The mental benefits that come with going on the Paleo diet can be particularly interesting to see. You should be more likely to enjoy these points:

1.
       
You won’t be likely to suffer from serious issues relating to feeling tired. This could improve your attitude during the day.

2.
      
You will also feel more productive with all that energy you will be getting. This should make you feel more positive about yourself.

3.
      
The added focus that you get should improve the quality of whatever work it is you might do during the day.

4.
     
It may even be easier for you to mentally focus on your diet at hand. Many diets fail because people forget to take a look at what they want to do with their eating habits. A better diet will help you to stay a little more active and under control so nothing wrong can happen.

Physical Improvements?

 

You might be amazed at the physical improvements that you will experience while on the Paleo diet. These relate mostly to how your body will respond to it over a period of time.

Improved Measurements

One of the best points about the diet is that you will have a better series of measurements around your body. These include measurements that have been toned down because you will have more lean muscle around your body and less fat tissue.

For example, you may be able to lose about one or two inches off of your chest in about one or two months on the diet. Also, you can lose two to four inches off of
your
hips. This is a part of the body that might be tough to do on your own but can be easily targeted while on the Paleo diet.

Less Bloating

Bloating occurs around the body when an unhealthy diet is consumed. This can especially be disruptive to your abs.

This is where the Paleo diet may come into play. The diet can help you to reduce bloating and get you to have flatter abs. This is thanks in part to the way how the diet is capable of providing you with natural sources of fiber that haven’t been processed. It also helps you out with plenty of water and a dramatic reduction of salt in your diet.

This should help you to keep the tissues in your abs from being worn out easily. It can also help you to get more defined muscles in the area.

Easy to Control Eating Habits

It will be easier for you to keep your eating habits under control while on the diet. Much of this involves how the diet will use foods that are filling and will keep you from wanting to eat more than you have to. This is especially the case when it comes to the water you consume and the natural fibers that you’d be getting out of your vegetables.

The filling nature of the diet should make it easier for you to keep you eating habits under control. This may make it easier for you to control your eating routine over time. It certainly gives your body something to look forward to in the long run.

Different Conditions That Can Be Improved

 

Many other positive things can occur when you go on the Paleo diet. Here are a few of these special positives:

Improved Breathing

The reduction in pressure on your body from unhealthy food might also be helpful for your diet. You should be able to correct many breathing issues including asthma and potentially sleep apnea.

Much of this involves how your body should be able to burn off enough fat over time to improve the ways how airways in your body are working. It keeps the body from suffering from obstructions that can cause snoring, sleep apnea and other occasion breathing difficulties to occur.

Issues with Allergies

Sometimes the regular diet that you are on might end up causing allergic reactions that can easily disrupt your life. This primarily comes from how so many foods that you would be consuming each day contain gluten and casein. These are two ingredients that trigger many food-related allergies.

The Paleo diet does not include many of the foods that might cause food allergies to flare up. You won’t find nuts, wheat or milk on this diet.

Improved Digestion

Your digestive system will not suffer from damages from gluten when you go on the Paleo diet. This should keep your body active and more likely to burn off calories after a while.

In addition, the lack of lectin from grains in your diet will also be a big point of keeping your body healthy. Lectins have been known to get into the body’s GI tract. This can keep the tract from being able to keep itself healthy and to repair itself as needed. The damages from lectins can be harmful but you can keep them from being prominent if you use a healthy routine with the Paleo diet.

Improved Hair and Skin Quality

The nutrients in your diet should make it easier for you to develop more hair. You hair will have a better shine to it and it will also be a little stronger. It might even be a little easier for you to grow hair in spots where it has been a challenge for you to actually get it going.

Also, the nutrients will be made to improve the quality of your skin. It will make your skin look alive and healthy after a while. This should keep you from suffering from too many issues involved with keeping yourself looking attractive.

A Better Immune System

The problem with so many foods these days is that they are laced with so many difficult artificial ingredients and flavors that they can make it harder for you to stay healthy. They can add to the toxins in your body, thus making it harder for your immune system to function properly. This could make you more susceptible to a number of illnesses.

The Paleo diet should make it easier for you to take care of your body and to keep these problems from being too dramatic. You can use this diet to help you out with losing weight from toxins being cleared out while also keeping the body’s natural defenses a little more active over time. This is needed to help you with keeping yourself less likely to become ill after a while.

Reduced Pains

It’s easier to suffer from pains around the joints if you are overweight. This is due to the added pressure that comes all that excess weight. Fortunately, the weight loss that you will experience while on the diet should make it easier for you to avoid the risks that might come with pressure.

Healthier Organs

You can also get your organs to feel better when you use this diet. This is thanks to the way how your organs will not feel too much pressure from fats in the body. There’s even a benefit related to the way how the body can start burning off fats over carbohydrates for energy.

This benefit results from the way how your organs will begin to burn off fats that they have built up over time. These include ones that were not made for organ structures. It might even be easier for your liver and other critical organs for digestive purposes to be a little more open and capable of handling your body’s activities.

As you can see, the effects of the Paleo diet can be very positive on your body. You should strongly consider this diet if you want to get the best weight loss results and feel better about your body all the way around.
