Thrive Market 11-Piece Paleo Starter Kit

Sometimes called the Neolithic or caveman diet, or eating “primal,” the Paleo way requires consuming the same things that were available to our hunter-gatherer ancestors thousands of years ago. Back then, the menu consisted of lots of meat, fish, berries, tubers, and vegetables—and none of the packaged and processed foods full of grains, dairy, and sugar that many rely on today.

That’s because—according to Paleo proponents—our bodies haven’t evolved enough to digest these kinds of foods properly. Though they may be the pillars of the Standard American Diet, grains, dairy, and sugar are thought to be the root cause of many ailments that afflict modern humans, including obesity, diabetes, cancer, and autoimmune diseases.

Paleo, on the other hand, is a way to step back and adhere to a diet that humans have been eating and digesting just fine since the dawn of time. But, with Thrive Market’s starter kit you don’t need a time machine, or even a ride to the grocery store. The kit comes straight to your door and is filled with 10 non-processed, non-GMO, Paleo-approved items to enjoy morning, day, and night.

With this selection of high-quality cooking ingredients on hand, the hunt for caveman-approved essentials is officially over.

Kettle & Fire Grass-Fed Beef Bone Broth

While many think of bone broth as the latest food fad, it’s not anything new. In fact, this nutrient-rich stock––a blend of bones, meat, and/or veggies––dates back centuries. Kettle & Fire’s variety is a modern-day favorite that takes the hassle out of making it yourself. It’s slowly simmered for at least 24 hours to extract tons of flavor and nutrients including collagen, calcium, phosphorous, glucosamine, and other essential amino acids that help fight illness, inflammation, and anxiety. Each batch is made with bones from 100% grass-fed cattle that are hormone- and antibiotic-free. Organic vegetables and herbs, sea salt, and black peppercorn are also mixed in, creating a savory and soothing broth to enjoy solo or as a versatile soup stock.

Justin's Classic Almond Butter

One spoonful of Justin’s Classic Almond Butter is a surefire way to curb unhealthy cravings and get a hearty dose of protein. A great alternative to traditional peanut butter, this version is made with raw California almonds that have zero trans fats and tons of extra calcium and iron. Almond butter is also loaded with monounsaturated fats, which help lower blood cholesterol. A gluten-free and vegan treat, it’s great alone or slathered over sliced apples.

Sweet Potato Chips

Jackson’s Honest Coconut Oil Sweet Potato Chips are definitely different than regular potato chips—they're even nutritious! Made with non-GMO sweet potatoes fried in organic coconut oil and seasoned with a dash of pure sea salt, these chips are completely free of chemicals and additives. So go ahead, snack on a few to satisfy your chip cravings.

Thrive Market Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

Ethically sourced from a small farm in the Philippines, Thrive Market’s organic virgin coconut oil is made from only the highest-quality ingredients. Organic, cold-pressed, and never refined, our coconut oil is just the way nature intended it to be—and at a fraction of the usual price tag. With a medium smoke-point of around 350 degrees, coconut oil is wonderful for baking, frying, and sautéing. Plus, it’s high in lauric acid, which helps to raise HDL (good) cholesterol levels.

Wild Planet Albacore Tuna

No more draining cans of tuna. The juices in Wild Planet actually enhance your meal with pure flavor. That’s because these albacore steaks are hand-packed raw into each can without any added salt, oil, water, or fillers, and cooked just once to retain all of the goodness. The wild stock is also rich in omega-3 oils and lower in mercury compared to conventional tuna.

Wild Planet Alaskan Pink Salmon

When you eat a can of Wild Planet Alaskan Pink Salmon, you are doing a world of good since the supply is sustainably caught by local fishing families. You are also doing yourself some good eating the skinless and boneless fillets that are hand-packed fresh and cooked just once to retain their nutritional potency, which contains an average of 340mg of omega-3 oils in each serving.

Wild Planet Skipjack Light Tuna

Wild Planet offers the first sustainably caught skipjack tuna on the market, which is hand-packed raw without added oil, water, or fillers. With a light consistency and great flavor, it’s perfect for tuna salad or with crackers and packs your snack with an abundance of omega-3’s.

Thrive Market Ghee

Thrive Market’s pure ghee adds a rich, creamy flavor to almost any dish—and it’s lactose-free! Ghee follows an ancient Indian tradition that slow cooks fresh butter until the milk protein separates; once removed, the result is a golden-colored, gluten-free kitchen essential that can be a healthy condiment or cooking oil. Even better, a spoonful of ghee has digestion-aiding butyric acid and healthy fat-soluble vitamins.

Nuco Coconut Wraps

Clocking in at only four net carbs and 70 calories per wrap, this tortilla alternative is made from hand-harvested organic coconuts and packed full of energy-fueling medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Unlike other gluten-free options, there's no need to refrigerate or freeze these wraps to preserve their freshness (which lasts up to nine months). Use them however you would a tortilla––from breakfast burritos and cheesy quesadillas, to turkey wraps and even crepes!

Classic Coconut Butter Cups

Eating Evolved is proud to introduce the world’s first Coconut Butter Cup. We have filled our organic 72% chocolate with creamy coconut sugar sweetened organic coconut butter. These cups truly define primal decadence.
