A paleolithic lifestyle also known as paleo or primal lifestyle refers to living as humans did in the paleolithic era Old Stone Age , or attempting to recreate such a lifestyle in the present day. The rationale for such an approach is that human evolution humans have evolved for millions of years in a paleolithic environment. Therefore, their body and mind can be expected to be perfectly adapted to the concomitant hunter gatherer lifestyle. Agriculture , on the other hand, only appeared about 10 000 years ago at the beginning of the neolithic era , and industrial society only about 200 years ago. Proponents of a paleolithic lifestyle assert that insufficient time has passed for humans to adapt to the changes brought by farming and industrialization, leading to a misfit between modern lifestyle and the human genome. While small number of cultures in the world continue to live a paleolithic hunter gatherer lifestyle, a subculture of people has emerged in modern societies who try to recreate elements of a paleolithic lifestyle. ref P.
