Tag: Paleo transition

When you begin the paleo diet, which eliminates processed foods, grains, and dairy, your body undergoes a profound shift. This can lead to a variety of short-term and long-term changes as your system adapts to eating more lean protein, healthy fats, fruits, and vegetables.

Many people experience what is often dubbed the 'Paleo Flu' during their first week, characterized by fatigue, headaches, and irritability as the body adapts. Understanding what happens the first week on paleo is crucial for navigating this transition successfully and sticking with your new lifestyle.
