How to eat

 Suzanne and I eat a mostly paleo diet.  The Great Nom Nom Paleo explains it much more efficiently than I could:

Our primary source of dietary information is this outstanding book, which I cannot recommend highly enough:

I've been strongly influenced by two pivotal New York Times stories, "Is Sugar Toxic?" from 2011:

The short answer is "yes," but the nebulous issue is dosage.  If you keep it under 40 lbs./year, you're probably OK, but if you go over the American average of 90 lbs./year, you're NOT OK.

 and clear back in 2002, "What if it's all been a big fat lie?"
