“Primal” is a distinction with a difference.

Primal Stands For

Primary

A back-to-the-basics approach to wellness that emphasizes real, nutritious food, physical activity that utilizes our muscles and cardiovascular systems, and life choices that keep stress at a minimum, sleep at a maximum, and balance at the center. 

Ancestral Health

An evolutionary perspective that follows the dietary and fitness patterns of our earliest ancestors to prevent and reverse modern health conditions.

The Primal Blueprint

A system of eating, moving, and living in the modern world developed by our founder, Mark Sisson, that’s changed the lives of millions around the world.

Founded by the preeminent authority on ancestral health, Mark Sisson
