Men must include certain foodstuffs in their daily meal to benefit to cope up with their energy requirement and stay healthy. Unlike other diets like the GM diet,  our nutrition concept is far more liberal than its counterparts. It is based on a simple philosophy that cavemen were the fittest of the lot. Hence, the diet plan allows you to have everything and anything that the caveman could have possibly had. So, you can say a big YES to meat and fish and stay away from sugar, refined flour and everything and anything that is processed to stay fit.

Cooking food over fire open robs it off the essential nutrients as well. So eating them raw always proves to be more beneficial. As soon as Drilldoggy came to know about this fact, he had a sudden brainwave to combine the evolutionary and raw food diet together to create healthier dish. Thus he whipped up the ceviche and guess what? It turned out better than he actually expected it to be.

Ceviche calls for raw fish ‘cooked’ in citrus juices and often finds ingredients like avocados and tomatoes for company. If you don’t like fish, go for the seafood version featured in this website. No matter what you use, the refreshing flavors of ceviche will always soothe your palate, especially on hot, sultry summers.
