Paleolithic or “paleo” eating is a fairly modern lifestyle approach based on the eating habits of our paleolithic ancestors. It is also commonly referred to as the caveman diet or stone-age diet.

Supporters of this dietary approach believe that our DNA and basic nutrition needs have not changed much since the paleolithic era, so our eating habits should not either. Thus, we should be consuming only foods that were available to our hunter-gatherer predecessors and avoid all modern processed foods.

This theory is rooted in the fact that modern-day diet-related diseases like type 2 diabetes, cancer, and heart disease did not exist in the stone age. And it is clear that modern-day diets can strongly contribute to health concerns like high blood pressure and uncontrolled blood sugar. However, our ancestors only lived to be around 30 years old, so it’s hard to say whether or not their diet was sufficient for good long term health.

No one person invented the Paleo diet. The original inventors were the Paleolithic ancestors who survived on it.

In a response to 20th-century industrialization, the diet began taking shape in 1975 with a book published by gastroenterologist Walter Voegtlin called "Stone Age diet".

In 1985 Stanley Boyd Eaton and Melvin Konner published an article in the New England Journal of Medicine advocating for Paleo nutrition. 

Today's popularity can be traced to Loren Cordain's 2002 book, "The Paleo Diet", reviving the ancient approach to modern problems.
