The “paleo is a men’s diet” idea comes from early marketing photos of steak and eggs, not from any biology. Women eat the same food humans have always eaten. What changes for women isn’t which foods; it’s how much, and…

Our Paleo Diet section covers 7-day meal plans, food lists, and recipes built on whole foods: grass-fed meats, wild fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, and healthy fats, with grains, legumes, dairy, and refined sugar left out. Plans run from 1,400 to 1,800 kcal per day, plus budget Paleo at roughly $40 per week and Paleo comparisons against Keto, Atkins, Whole30, and vegan.
Every Paleo plan is macro-balanced with protein at or above 0.8 g/kg body weight, healthy fats from avocado, olive oil, nuts, and fatty fish, and produce as the carbohydrate base. Nutrition is calculated per serving against the Nutritionix database and USDA references. Recipe cards flag calcium (from bone-in fish, greens, and almonds), vitamin D, iodine, and fiber, the nutrients most likely to need attention when dairy and grains are off the plate.
Plans and food lists are written or reviewed by our Registered Dietitians Brenda Peralta, Kerly Cordova, Marita Radloff, and Karolina Peterova, and medically reviewed by Franco Cuevas, MD. Recipes are developed and tested by our Food Editor Damla Sengul in our Wayne, NJ kitchen, with Latin American Paleo variations from Andrea and Mirian Montalvo.
