Primal Cravings – Megan McCullough Keatley, Brandon Keatley
(Buy from Amazon; Buy from The Book Depository)
A well seasoned steak, eggs, dark chocolate, and apples can really hit the spot. But sometimes, we could really go for Chili Pie, Benedict Deviled Eggs, Thin Mint Cookies, and Apple Pie. Even the most disciplined and willful among us can become bored and wayward on a routine of bland, repetitive meals. Humans naturally crave delicious food, interesting cuisine and variety.
Primal Cravings sets out to provide the best of both worlds – the food to satiate our deep seated, visceral urges made with ingredients that satisfy our ancient, genetic needs for good health. This cookbook contains 125 Primal/Paleo recipes, and also includes bonus features that detail the authors’ thoughts of the tenets of a Primal/Paleo diet and the mentality of a flexible, healthy eating lifestyle to show you how vibrant health can be found without sacrificing great taste.
Based in South Carolina, authors Brandon and Megan Keatley created Primal Cravings on the momentum of their popular Health-Bent.com website – a treasure trove of Primal/Paleo recipes, workout tips and motivational messages. These kitchen whizzes and expert-level fitness coaches present Primal Cravings after several years of research, experimentation and perfecting recipes in their home kitchen. Primal Cravings presents the recipes in a simple, clear, easy-to-navigate format, and offers a detailed macronutrient analysis of each preparation. Knowing time is the most valuable resource, they also provide primers on ingredients, tools, and stocking your kitchen, and offer menu suggestions for a variety of occasions and considerations (quick, budget, feeding a crowd).

Deep Nutrition – Catherine Shanahan MD, Luke Shanahan
(Buy from Amazon; Buy from The Book Depository)
A self-published phenomenon examining the habits that kept our ancestors disease-free―now with a prescriptive plan for “The Human Diet” to help us all live long, vital, healthy lives.
Physician and biochemist Cate Shanahan, M.D. examined diets around the world known to help people live longer, healthier lives―diets like the Mediterranean, Okinawa, and “Blue Zone”―and identified the four common nutritional habits, developed over millennia, that unfailingly produce strong, healthy, intelligent children, and active, vital elders, generation after generation. These four nutritional strategies―fresh food, fermented and sprouted foods, meat cooked on the bone, and organ meats―form the basis of what Dr. Cate calls “The Human Diet.”
Rooted in her experience as an elite athlete who used traditional foods to cure her own debilitating injuries, and combining her research with the latest discoveries in the field of epigenetics, Dr. Cate shows how all calories are not created equal; food is information that directs our cellular growth. Our family history does not determine our destiny: what you eat and how you live can alter your DNA in ways that affect your health and the health of your future children.
Deep Nutrition offers a prescriptive plan for how anyone can begin eating The Human Diet to:
*Improve mood
*Eliminate cravings and the need to snack
*Boost fertility and have healthier children
*Sharpen cognition and memory
*Eliminate allergies and disease
*Build stronger bones and joints
*Get younger, smoother skin
Deep Nutrition cuts through today’s culture of conflicting nutritional ideologies, showing how the habits of our ancestors can help us lead longer, healthier, more vital lives.

Nutrition and Physical Degeneration – Weston A. Price DDS
(Buy from Amazon; Buy from The Book Depository)
An epic study demonstrating the importance of whole food nutrition, and the degeneration and destruction that comes from a diet of processed foods.
For nearly 10 years, Weston Price and his wife traveled around the world in search of the secret to health. Instead of looking at people afflicted with disease symptoms, this highly-respected dentist and dental researcher chose to focus on healthy individuals, and challenged himself to understand how they achieved such amazing health. Dr. Price traveled to hundreds of cities in a total of 14 different countries in his search to find healthy people. He investigated some of the most remote areas in the world. He observed perfect dental arches, minimal tooth decay, high immunity to tuberculosis and overall excellent health in those groups of people who ate their indigenous foods. He found when these people were introduced to modernized foods, such as white flour, white sugar, refined vegetable oils and canned goods, signs of degeneration quickly became quite evident. Dental caries, deformed jaw structures, crooked teeth, arthritis and a low immunity to tuberculosis became rampant amongst them. Dr. Price documented this ancestral wisdom including hundreds of photos in his book, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.

Death by Food Pyramid – Denise Minger
(Buy from Amazon; Buy from The Book Depository)
Warning: Shock and outrage will grip you as you dive into this one-of-a-kind exposé. Shoddy science, sketchy politics, and shady special interests have shaped American Dietary recommendations–and destroyed our nation’s health–over recent decades. The phrase “death by food pyramid” isn’t shock-value sensationalism, but the tragic consequence of following federal advice and corporate manipulation in pursuit of health.
In Death by Food Pyramid, Denise Minger exposes the forces that overrode common sense and solid science to launch a pyramid phenomenon that bled far beyond US borders to taint the eating habits of the entire developed world.
Minger explores how generations of flawed pyramids and plates endure as part of the national consciousness, and how the “one size fits all” diet mentality these icons convey pushes us deeper into the throes of obesity and disease. Regardless of whether you’re an omnivore or vegan, research junkie or science-phobe, health novice or seasoned dieter, Death by Food Pyramid will reframe your understanding of nutrition science–and inspire you to take your health, and your future, into your own hands.

The Dark Side of Fat Loss – Sean Croxton
(visit product page)
If “Fat Loss” is so simple, then why is everyone still fat?
Recent studies show that 95% of dieters regain the weight they lost and more often than not end up heavier than when they started. What do the 5% who lose weight and keep it off know that the others don’t?
Find the answer in this book and a whole lot more including:
Chapter 1: Hold No Myths To Be True
In Chapter 1, you’ll learn about the incorrect “Calories in, Calories Out” paradigm, and why diet and exercise alone will NOT achieve your fat loss goals. You’ll learn how to completely avoid “battling the scale” and how the common mainstream solutions we attempt to use for fat loss not only defy reality & science, but also the laws of common sense.
Chapter 2: It’s All About The Hormones
In this chapter, you’ll learn the most important hormones for fat loss, and how they interact with each other and your body. By the time you’ve finished this chapter, you’ll have a strong understanding of how your hormones work, and how to manage them so that you can lose fat. You’ll also learn about the IGNORED master hormone and how to control it to keep your body a fat burning furnace, and not just plain old fat.
Chapter 3: Just Do What Healthy People Do
In this chapter, you’ll learn what true health REALLY is, and how to model your health after others who are truly healthy. By the end of this chapter, you’ll know how you can truly be free of the signs and symptoms of chronic, degenerative diseases while burning fat at the same time.
Chapter 4: Just Eat Real Food
In this chapter, you’ll learn what “real food” really is, and how to easily navigate through our confusing and often misleading modern food labeling system. You’ll learn the differences between grass fed, free range, conventional, organic, and natural food labels, and what they all mean. You’ll also learn about the wheel of life – and why you can NOT get healthy eating sick animals.
Chapter 5: The JERF30 Program
The JERF30 Program is a system of choosing real foods and listening to the signals your body gives you. Most diet programs think that everybody is the same. The JERF30 program does not make that assumption. Instead, you’ll learn how to listen to your body and know which foods are the healthiest and provide the biggest health benefits specifically for you. The 30 day Just Eat Real Food challenge provides you with a list of foods to choose from, as well as a system for translating your body’s messages into actionable information so that you can find the diet that is right for you.
Chapter 6: Reduce Stress
Is stress making you fat? In this chapter, you’ll learn the 5 sources of stress on the body, and how to mitigate them and how to lower stress in your life. The average American is incredibly stressed out, and this produces some pretty severe negative effects on your body – including increased fat storage, anxiety, and depression – all of which you will learn how to prevent in this chapter.
Chapter 7: Go To Bed
Is your lack of sleep killing you? Most Americans are dramatically sleep-deprived and just “live with it” – but did you know that just one night of missed sleep is sufficient to make you as insulin resistant as a diabetic? And, the center for disease control recently classified all-nighters as carcinogens? So lack of sleep will make you diabetic, cancerous, and inevitably, lead to an early death. In this chapter, you’ll learn how the advent of the light bulb has tricked your body into thinking it’s into a perpetual state of summer, and makes it constantly prepare for a winter famine by shifting your hormones to crave sugar and make your body store fat. By the end of this chapter, you’ll learn how to prevent this from happening and how to make sure your body is burning fat all year round.
Chapter 8: Heal Your Gut
Did you know that Americans spend over $1,300,000 a day just to poop? And that 1/3rd to ½ of all adult Americans have one or more digestive challenges? In this chapter, you’ll learn what these digestive challenges are, and how to overcome them without compromising your everyday life. You’ll learn about parasites, leaky gut, gluten sensitivities, and other important digestive issues that you need to be aware of if you want to have a fully functioning digestive system. If your digestive system is dysfunctional – then weight loss is nearly impossible – so this chapter is an essential read in your fat loss journey.
Chapter 9: Reduce Your Toxic Load
Did you know that we use 9 personal care products daily that contain around 126 chemical ingredients, and that 1/3rd of these ingredients have been identified as causing cancer or other serious health problems? In this chapter, you’ll learn about obesegens – chemicals that interfere with the normal function of the hormonal system and have been shown by research to cause weight gain. These are the very same obesegens that you’re likely rubbing all over your body every day, inhaling from toxic cleaning products, and drinking in non-filtered water. This chapter will show you how to identify, remove, and replace common toxins in your immediate environment, so that you can lower your toxic load and lose fat more easily.
Chapter 10: Get Your Mind Right
All of the information in this book is great, but if you don’t have the mindset to take action, then you’re wasting your own time. In this chapter, you’ll learn the 6 keys to a successful lifestyle change, and how you can emulate others’ success in revamping their health and overall well being.
