CSU Professor Defends So-Called Caveman Diet
DENVER (AP) - A Colorado State University professor is leading a campaign promoting the so-called caveman diet.
CSU professor of health and exercise Loren Cordain is a long-time proponent of the Paleo Diet and wrote a book about its benefits.
Cordain says modern humans would benefit greatly by returning to the caveman days and live on diets filled with high protein from wild game and fresh fruits and vegetables.
Cordain says reports that that the effects of the lean-meat-heavy Paleo Diet are either unknown or possibly unhealthy are wrong.
