I was recently given the opportunity to review The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Eating Paleo by Jason Glaspey and Neely Quinn and it was definitely much more comprehensive than I expected for a “Complete Idiot’s Guide!” This 300+ page book not only has explanation of why some modern foods (grains, sugars, vegetable oils,etc) are not [...]
