Books
- It Starts with Food by Melissa & Dallas Hartwig. This book is gold – seriously. It explains the science behind the paleo lifestyle in a non-sciencey way, and goes into detail of why sugars, grains, dairy and legumes are not good food choices. It is also the bible for how to manage your Whole30. A must read for anyone new to paleo.
