Modern food processing and production methods are deemed to be the cause of a rise in allergies, weight gain and general health problems.</div><div style="clear:both"></div></div><div class="menupad" style="padding-top:0px; padding-bottom:0px;" data-type="ImageCaption"><div class="blogimageright"><div><img src="https://jfc-blog.imgix.net/96f1d26c-6ea2-4abd-b349-4c28607dcf88.jpg?w=680" alt="Image courtesy of Primal Palate" style="width:100%;"></div><div class="blogtextcaption" >Image courtesy of Primal Palate</div></div><div class="blogtext mce-content-body" id="mce_container2" style="position: relative;" >Paleo is very simple in that it focuses on anything our early ancestors would have hunt or gathered before the days of farming and over processing.<br data-mce-bogus="1">Paleo Includes: Lean proteins such as grass fed meats, fruit and vegetables plus healthy fats such as nuts and seeds.<br data-mce-bogus="1">Paleo Avoids: Cereal grains, refined sugars, dairy, any processed food and carb based foods such as potatoes and root vegetables. These are all foods that are deemed to be difficult to digest. <br data-mce-bogus="1">Paleo snacks and food groups are popular with gym enthusiasts, as the high levels of protein claim to help recovery, build muscle, reduce fat, improve sleep and increase energy levels.<br data-mce-bogus="1"><strong>Whats in the Primal Snack Box?</strong><br>There is currently a meat eater and a vegetarian/vegan box option, both containing 8-10 paleo snacks. The Savannah is designed to offer a variety of high-protein dried meats such as biltong and jerky. This is then accompanied by a range of energy bars, dried fruits, nuts, seeds and treats such as paleo based chocolate.</div><div style="clear:both"></div></div><div class="menupad active" style="padding-top:0px; padding-bottom:0px;" data-type="ImageCaption"><div class="blogimageleft"><div><img src="https://jfc-blog.imgix.net/00ac50a7-811f-4f64-baed-4489c2c55626.jpg?w=680" alt="" style="width:100%;"></div></div><div class="blogtext mce-content-body" id="mce_container3" style="position: relative;" >The Forest Box is pretty much the same as the Savannah but caters for vegetarians and vegans or anyone that doesn't fancy the dried meat snacks.<br>The majority of the snacks included in the box are hand picked by Primal Snacks from a range of health based snack brands for example : Coconut & Cashew Bar by Fossil Fuel, Pecan Pie by Nakd, Salted Walnuts by Raw Ecstasy, Cheezy Kale Crisps from Rawlicious.<br data-mce-bogus="1">The monthly box from Primal is different each time, meaning you won't get bored of the same snacks each month. New suppliers are being added all the time, which adds to the variety and experience. It will be interesting to see if the option to customise your own box will be a route Primal take in the future.<br data-mce-bogus="1"><strong>Summary</strong><br>Despite the health benefits, the Paleo diet is often quoted as being difficult to maintain due to the accessibility of paleo food groups, particularly for snacks when out and about, post workout and during the day. The Primal Box does an excellent job in filling this void by curating the best paleo snacks to help supplement your diet throughout the month.<br data-mce-bogus="1">To signup and for more information visit : Primal Snacks</div><div style="clear:both"></div></div>
