When it comes to following a paleo diet, often people think that is really restrictive.
While there are certain foods you will need to avoid, this does not mean that you have to eat bland or boring foods, like some people will lead you to believe.
In fact, there are many types of foods you can eat that may be deemed as “unhealthy”, but are in fact healthy and modified to suit this diet. If you are anything like us and have a sweet tooth, this is the perfect article for you.
