Primal food pyramid - the ultimate diet

11th July 2024

This blog-post will serve as a reference of what I consider to be the ultimate diet.

I will update this article over time to always be inline with my best recommendation.

This diet is high in nutrition and low in calories which means it will be perfect for your health.

Introducing the Primal Food Pyramid

The calorie distribution on this diet is:

75% meat & eggs
10% muesli
7% fruit
5% dairy
1% veg

Why is it a good diet?

It contains plenty of meat which is very nourishing.

It contains almost no sugar because sugar is just pointless calories that destroys your teeth.

It contains no ultra-processed foods.

How to do this diet?

Here is your meal plan:

Breakfast

sausages & eggs
yoghurt, muesli, berries

Lunch

steak or salmon

Afternoon snack

apple or banana

Dinner

chicken
carrot or broccoli or cucumber or bell pepper

Notes

for your yoghurt option, plain Greek yoghurt is best. does not need to be low fat but must be no added sugar
meat is a lot nicer and more nutritious if you don't over-cook it. so get a meat-thermometer
Your muesli should be unsweetened nut&seed muesli. Dried fruit is pointless as it has less vitamins than fresh fruit while retaining the sugar which you don't want.
never have any sugar other than fresh fruit
you will use oil to cook meat and eggs but it's not worth including it in the pyramid as there's no way to know how much of it is still on the food by the time you eat it

Quantities

The yoghurt you have with breakfast fills three segments of the pyramid (dairy, muesli, fruit), so I thought I would provide a recommendation of the quantities:

60grams yoghurt
45grams nut&seed muesli
35grams of berries

The veg should be a small amount as you're not a rabbit.

The quantity of meat you must adjust based on your calorie requirements.
