Lorrie’s interests run far and wide; she is not only an
accomplished Paleo chef, a former triathlete, marathon
runner, and high school cross-country coach, and a
wonderful mother and wife, but she is also an experienced
teacher with master’s degrees in both elementary and
special education. Lorrie has a special talent for merging
my scientific writings with many of Nell Stephenson’s
innovative recipes to produce a book that is lively,
coherent, and relevant to today’s cuisine.
Nell Stephenson is an internationally recognized Ironman
triathlete, marathon runner, personal fitness consultant, and
nutritional counselor, and like Lorrie she is also a Paleo
chef. In her personal quest, Nell experimented with nearly
every nutritional plan under the sun. She eventually
discovered the Paleo Diet and found it to be superior to all
other ways of eating. Nell has become a staunch supporter
of the Paleo Diet and has years of practical experience in
prescribing this lifetime plan of eating to her international
clientele, including athletes as well as people just trying to
lose weight and regain their health.
With a bachelor’s degree in exercise science from the
University of Southern California, culinary school
experience, and more than a decade of wisdom garnered
in the fitness and nutrition industry, Nell brings important
practical experience to the recipes that she and Lorrie have
created for this book. Based in Los Angeles, she can be
