Have you ever wondered what cinnamon rolls would taste like, sans cinnamon? Why aren’t there more recipes for sticky, gooey, and sweet breakfast rolls without cinnamon or caramel? There are so many other wonderful options!

I was craving a buttery, flaky breakfast bun with the sweet, tangy, taste of lemon — so I made one up.

pIt#8217;s hard to describe in words how amazing the PrimalCon Vacation Tulum was, which is why we brought out master cinematographer Janèe Meadows down there to capture the magic on video! I urge you to take 75 seconds out of your day and watch this highlights show. It captures the essence of what I#8217;ve been trying to create for the last seven years on Mark#8217;s Daily Apple #8211; a spirit of community and making new connections, a sense of adventure into the natural world, an appreciation of excellent cuisine, and a commitment to healthy, primal living.

The concept of the Reverse Taper Diets is still one of my favorite ideas.Without getting too technical, the concept was that you should be in your largest calorie deficit (eating the least amount of food) at the beginning of your diet, when you have the most fat to lose and thus the most fat available to be used as a fuel. Then, as you slowly lose fat you also slowly up your calories, ideally ending at a spot where you are eating maintenance level calories when you are at your leanest.The benefit of dieting in this manner is two fold: Firstly, you have much less risk of rebound weight gain. At the end of the diet, you would be eating exactly the amount you need to eat to maintain your new ideal body. Secondly, you would always have available energy so you could workout and so your energy levels didn’t diminish the further into the diet you lasted (lots of people complain about not having enough energy to workout by the end weeks of a traditional diet).The only problem that seems to come up with this  approach is that people don’t like to fiddle with their calories, and they also have a very hard time increasing their calories if they’re seeing really good  fat loss progress with the lower Calorie amounts.

Next, I discuss whether there#8217;s a perfect time to take your probiotics and prebiotics, or whether it doesn#8217;t matter at all. After that, I answer a quick barrage of resistant starch-related questions, followed by a query regarding a monotonous eating regimen that by all accounts appears to be working very well.

But exactly emhow much/em salt? Too little, and the meat is bland. Too much, and you’ve ruined a huge chunk of meat. But more often than not, home cooks are left on their own to figure out how much salt to sprinkle on top./p
pSalt roasting is a technique that takes off all the pressure of correctly seasoning meat before you cook it. It also helps keep meat tender and juicy, which is especially helpful when cooking meat that can dry out easily, like lamb.

I’d like to introduce you to Flat Belly Forever.
It’s a new book, research conducted by me, that attempts to answer to the question:
 Why can two people in a controlled research study eat very close to the same amount of food, do very close to the same amount of exercise yet lose radically different amounts of weight?

For a long time my answer to this question was simply ‘They’re either lying about how much they eat, or how much they exercise”.
However, there was another thing that was nagging at me – people’s insistence that eating fruit and vegetables and ‘healthy food’ would result in better weight loss that eating the exact same amount of calories from ‘unhealthy food’.
What bothered me about this idea was how engrained the concept was in people from all walks of life, from different countries and of different ages… It seems that across the world we had an […]

pOne of the most fulfilling aspects of Primal living is the built-in community you become a part of as soon as you embrace a paleo lifestyle. From the online friendships inspired by the Mark’s Daily Apple Forum, to the face-to-face connections made at PrimalCon events, nothing excites me more than the webs of positive interpersonal influence that help us master the art of living Primally./p
