Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review and meta-analysis examined whether Paleolithic nutrition, which eliminates grains, dairy, and industrially processed foods, can improve risk factors for metabolic syndrome more effectively than other diets.
  • Results from four randomized controlled trials involving 159 participants indicated that Paleolithic diets led to short-term improvements in waist circumference, triglycerides, blood pressure, HDL cholesterol, and fasting blood sugar, with moderate evidence quality.
  • The findings suggest that Paleolithic nutrition might offer health benefits for metabolic syndrome components, although more high-quality research is needed to confirm these effects.]
