The AIP aspect of paleo should have shown some kind of result. Removing the lectins that cause the RA inflamation should have produced some kind of noticable result. On MDA he looks into the effects of the Omega fat ratios (O3 to O6) and they should be 1:1 but most folks have too much O6. Here is the info.
According to one article MDA linked to, the reaction in the gut to the lectins will cause enzymes to head out into the body and cause RA. The level of reaction depends on the genetics of the individual. Karl, you may have a genetic aspect of your body or gut that makes you more suspectible to RA. With all the studies they are doing on gut bacteria these days you may have some very interesting things going on in there. Recently a women had a fecal transplant to try to resolve a bowel issue and gained over 30 pounds in just a few months with no change in her diet or lifestyle.
I recommend you look at this link to the Paleo Approach and see if you can find any helpful information.
As for your weight loss issue, I wish I had that. I gain fat looking at a cookie. One of the things I mentioned before on here is that folks need to look at paleo as having two fronts. Body fat and blood glucose control then proper nutrition. For folks that have a high metabolic rate and no body fat issue you will need to increase your protein and fat consumption. If you are not wanting to go pure ketogenic, then adding in safe carb sources into your diet would be fine. The across the board recommendation of 50 grams of carbs a day for fat loss is generalised and may be not enough for some bodies and too much for others that have a heavy load each day like a construction worker.
the author of Practical Paleo has a good break down on carbs for paleo. And a good break down on fats.
Being mexican, I'm so glad this is in the play book now!!

Today marks day 7 of eating clean. For the most part, I feel fantastic. My pants have loosened, my stomach is not bloated, and I've have really been enjoying some good, clean food. I've even noticed that my face is way less greasy, and my facial color looks much healthier. However, I've noticed over the last few days that my energy levels are a bit low. Today I struggled to get through my usual push up routine and could not do as many pull ups or dips as usual. I'm guessing it is because of a pretty low carb intake compared to what my body is used to and the fact that I'm definitely burning more calories than I'm consuming. Will my energy levels increase as my body adjusts?
I'm going to purchase a couple books that I feel will help me learn to fuel my body correctly. Performance Paleo, and The Paleo Athelete. I'm open to suggestions on foods I should eat before and after a workout.
Thank you for any help,
Drew
That's a great article. Thank you for posting that. I was bummed out when I read how much crap was in the Muscle Pharm protien powder I use.
