Our Faith
People living with endocrine diseases or mental disorders due to trauma face significant lifestyle challenges. That's why True Paleo Inc embraces 9 Principles of Life that support medical nutrition therapy, lifestyle recovery, and food insecurity. Many of these principles resonate with natural living while following them through Christ, therefore, we don't adhere to one specific religious view or doctrine.
Across various tribes and contemporary societies, the recognition of a divine higher power remains a shared belief. And, we believe in individual autonomy, recognizing the right to personal belief systems and cultural perspectives that provide tools for a sustainable lifestyle. However, we still cultivate physical health, mental well-being, and spiritual growth through God's will (Body-Mind-Spirit), as the wisdom of holistic and nutritional choices underlines the path to improved health.
