The Paleo Diet by Loren Cordain, PhD. Studies are showing that the Paleo Diet is the most effective diet for preventing and managing cardio-vascular disease, blood sugar diseases such as diabetes, and other chronic diseases.

Dr. Cordain’s book provides an easy explanation of the diet and has a large meal planning and recipe section.
