Cowboy Nutrition

Once in a great post, a cowboy’s got to talk health.

That post has come and I’d like to express my gratification with Mark’s Sisson’s Primal Blueprint. It’s a cowboy’s way of staying healthy. Why do I say this.

Because of chili.

All common folk know a cowboy’s favorite meal is a hearty bowl of trail-cooked chili. Chunks of beef slopped in with tomatoes and chilis, spiced with enough cumin and hot pepper to send children running, and slopped into a bowl the size of a ten gallon hat.

And chili just happens to line up with the caveman diet, or the paleo diet, or– as Mark calls it– the Primal Diet. No sugar, no grains, no unwanted carbs in a bowl of chili. Just good old fashioned meats and vegetables.

Of course, even a cowboy needs omega 3 supplements. So, I always take a couple omega 3 vitamins with my spicy stew. It helps with the damage control.

So get out there and wrangle yourself up a bowl of the wild west’s finest meal. And leave out the beans!
