Obesity is very common among the higher income groups in India and other developing countries. Paleolithic diet or hunter-gatherer diet is currently popular for weight loss, diabetes management and general well-being. The present study was carried out to assess the nutritional status of the selected obese subjects who followed a modified lifestyle pattern for weight management and a group of subjects who followed paleo diet regularly. The data such as general information and socio-economic background, dietary pattern, anthropometric measurements, clinical, biochemical and biophysical parameters were collected from the selected subjects. Results showed that there is reduction in serum lipid profile except HDL in the subjects who followed lifestyle modifications and paleo diet is not a better choice for sustained weight management.Keywords
