Cavewoman Club

Everything I've learned about eating in a body like mine, turned into food you can actually buy. It doesn't exist yet — I'm making it, and I'd like you to help me decide what comes first.

First, about the name

This is not paleo. Cavewoman Club has nothing to do with eating like our ancestors, and I'm not going to tell you what people did or didn't eat ten thousand years ago.

The name comes from a doctor. When I was about twenty-one, a clinic told me I basically have the body of a cavewoman: I hold on to fat unusually well because of the way my body handles insulin, which would have made me excellent at surviving a famine and difficult at surviving a supermarket. That diagnosis explained my whole life. So the name is a diagnosis I was given, worn as a joke I'm now in on — not a diet philosophy. The full story is here.

What everything will have in common

No seed oils

Butter, olive oil, coconut — fats I would cook with at home. Never sunflower, rapeseed or vegetable oil because it is cheaper.

No added sugar

Not "reduced". None. Where something needs sweetening, stevia does the work — with a little erythritol only where texture genuinely needs it, which is mostly frozen things.

Organic and natural wherever possible

Real ingredients, named on the label, in words you already know. If I cannot explain why something is in there, it does not go in.

Fat is not the enemy

Low carb only works if the food actually satisfies you. Things made to be low in everything leave you hungry, and hungry is how every good intention dies.

I have to want to eat it

Nothing goes out that I would not happily eat myself, on an ordinary Tuesday, with no sense of virtue about it.

Honest labels, no miracle claims

Real numbers on the pack. No promises about what any of it will do for your body — that is not what food is for, and it is not a promise anyone can keep.

What should I make first?

This is a genuine question, not a marketing one. I can only develop one thing at a time, so tell me what you'd actually buy — and if the thing you want isn't on my list, that's the most useful answer of all.

Pick as many as you like

Only so I can reply, and tell you when it exists.

Nothing here is for sale yet, and nothing here is a health product. When these exist they'll be food — described honestly, with real numbers on the label and no claims about what they'll do for you. Laura's Way is personal experience, not medical advice.
