The problems come in many forms such as using vaguely related or truly unrelated studies to support an eating agenda, using poorly designed studies with inadequate measurements to claim positive results, …

The first term refers to how food and supplements affect genetic expression. The second term is a bit broader and refers to which books (genes) in your genetic library are actually …
Why use a highly purified whey protein like Private Reserve Protein Powder? Paleo man did not cultivate dairy and our genes are not equipped to handle dairy. The primary problem is lactose — milk sugar which is absent from “whey protein hydrolysates” like Private Reserve. A hydrolysate means that there has been some “pre …
