kgb_ Special Agents are tireless and relentless in their search for the answers to America’s questions.  And what does America want to know, you ask?  Well, today’s buzz centers on new age lifestyles:

What’s the caveman lifestyle?

Know more:

A small subculture of New York City folks are aspiring cavemen.  With good health as the goal, cavemen are setting up meat lockers in their homes to serve as a resting place for organ meat and deer ribs.

The caveman lifestyle focuses on the consumption of vast quantities of meat coupled with a period of fasting between meals.  (Vacillating between pigging out and fasting mimics Paleolithic man’s eating patterns between hunts.)

Followers of the caveman lifestyle consume fruits and vegetables but avoid bread (it wasn’t around back then.) They see the human form as specifically designed for hunting and gathering and, as a result, participate in exercises activities that involve sprinting and jumping.  (Act like you’re avoiding a mastodon.)

The group of followers of the caveman lifestyle took it up after researching health concerns online.  They read about the merits of paleolithic diets and evolutionary fitness routines like leaping between boulders and playing catch with stones.

The few women involved in the movement prefer the term “hunter-gatherer” over caveman and some cavemen-types prefer the term “paleo man.”

One of the most interesting features of the caveman lifestyle is the promotion of donating blood frequently.  Why?  The idea is that the hardships of caveman life probably left humans short a pint of blood from time to time.

Take a look at the paleo group in New York and you’ll see lean, muscular people with glowing skin.  Some report they no longer get sick.  But don’t ask a paleo man to eat a tomato.  They’re part of the nightshade family and weren’t around in caveman times.
