Maybe I have misunderstood-- paleo is one of the low carb diets, so it should revolve around natural meats and vegies. I don't see it as a vegetarian lifestyle. I looked at paleo as I love meat especially beef, so I was under the impression that it had plenty of meats.
Some parts of the world have vegetarian diets because they do not have the means to acquire meat or other animal protein. Some areas of the world are so over populated that the wild sources of meat are gone. THey are actually in starvation mode. Living a healthy vegetarian or vegan lifestyle takes a lot of careful planning of foods and with AMericans growing to very large sizes for a human that takes a lot of protein and calories. In human history, omnivore eating included insects. In dire straights, we can still digest insect protein. I personally will wait until I am starving, and until then the chickens can have the grasshoppers and ants and grubs.
I try to eat the foods that don't need much processing to eat: nuts, berries, meats, fish, salads, hamburger , etc. AND chicken, AND turkey!!
"All natural organic" has a legal definition; if it meets that criteria , then the label fits. I personally see it as relative. The more alternative methods can be used the better for the land and our health. I would like to see the land better taken care of as we depend on it to feed, what are we at 325 million people.
That's not what the mislead medical people are pushing. processed grains like flour and bread are discouraged.Maybe I have misunderstood-- paleo is one of the low carb diets, so it should revolve around natural meats and vegies.

As far as all natural organic...what the FDA and EPA cannot control fits within the definition just like with asbestos, only 5% of asbestos ever used causes the lung issues, but because the EPA cannot see any way for common industry workers to determine the difference, all asbestos is bad and will cost billions to take care of. And, what they don't tell you is that any silica dust (any of the silicon based minerals like quartz or asbestos) when ground into a fine dust and inhaled will cause silicosis (and seashell dust is harmful as well!). So, since pollution cannot be controlled, they don't count it against organic or all natural, but it's there just as it is in other food stuffs. And, if industry or farmers up steam use chemicals, how are they kept out of the water supply and your organic foods? Especially if they use a municipal treated water supply.
