The Evolution Diet is a
diet devised by Joseph Stephen
Breese Morse from
2002-2005.
It involves eating "what and how
we were designed to eat." The main
principles are:
- eat healthy high-energy
foods only before and during
exercise
- eat high-protein
foods after exercise and before
rest
Benefits are said to include
getting to and maintaining one's
ideal weight, consistently good
sleep, balanced energy, more
motivation. The Evolution Diet
is also a book, published in 2005.
The book stresses the importance
of natural human physiology and
bases the diet on how a
cultureless human would eat. The
eating plan has similarities with
the
Paleolithic diet and
Natural Foods Diet, however
the Evolution Diet stresses
when to eat certain
foods, not just what foods to
eat. Also The Evolution Diet
allows for modern foods that have
similar properties to natural
foods, not just foods that were
available before
agriculture.
