Subject: RE: Paleo eating: fruits as carbs I followed the paleo nutrition plan in 03 & 04. Fruit was a mainstay of my diet, but after a longer workout and/or harder workout I went for bread, pasta, rice, etc. As I understood Friel and Cordain, this was in line with their philosophy. You need the higher glycemic foods post workout to replinish your glycogen stores.
After easier and shorter workouts, I would stick to fruit.
Although my current diet isn't really "paleo" (I eat more bread today ), I still eat a lot of fruit, veggies, and lean protein, and stick to real food as much as possible.
