2012 Paleo Community Survey
If you have been utilizing a Paleo lifestyle as part of your health and wellness plan, please take a moment to go to
http://naturallyengineered.com/blog/paleo-community-survey-2012/
and answer a quick survey about your lifestyle. Here is the description of the survey from the Naturally Engineered Website:
The purpose of this survey is to collect information about paleo diet community members, including demographic information, medical conditions, dietary preferences, and physical activity.
Why participate?
The resulting data will be invaluable in terms of understanding the nature of the paleo movement. It will be provided to other bloggers and researchers with the goal of providing a clearer picture of how the paleo diet has affected the lives of its adherents.
You can review the results of last year’s survey to see previously collected data and get a sample of the types of questions to expect for this year. The new results will be released in a similar manner, for free, to the general public after the survey is concluded.
Also, survey participants get access to exclusive discount coupon codes to be used at sponsor online stores, as well as the ability to enter into a prize package drawing to win $50 gift certificates, and more!
And finally, the survey is very concise and easy to complete. It should take no more than a few minutes of your time.
My doctor encouraged me to try the Paleo diet just to jump start my system. I’ve been reviewing some recipes and worry that there are vital foods that my kiddos aren’t getting. (The recipes seem very light on grain, dairy and fruit) I just want to make sure that I don’t deprive them of necessary nutrients.
Hi Tommy,
Thanks for commenting! As always, it is best to discuss any questions/concerns with your family doctor or pediatrician. What I can say is that this lifestyle works for me, and for our family, and lots of families we know. There aren’t actually any necessary nutrients in grains, and they may have a negative effect on health for many people. If you are interested in reading about making these sorts of lifestyle changes for your family, I would recommend the excellent cookbook “Eat Like a Dinosaur” which I reviewed in another post!
Thanks,
Ann
