- Where appropriate, add references listed on talk page to the article.
- Ensure that all references are reliable and meet the standards outlined at WP:MEDRS.
- Ensure that all scientifically disputable claims about the features of ancestral paleolithic diets are clearly indicated as reflecting the views of Paleolithic diet proponents. Find appropriate (non-OR) sources to balance these statements.
- Briefly explain how the diet is said to help prevent osteoprosis in the "Sodium-potassium ratio and acid-base balance" subsection: The rationale is that metabolic acidosis is reduced by the paleo diet, which decreases calcium excretion. Also note that the researchers suggest a more practical solution than the paleo diet for reducing the acid load in those at risk of osteoporosis: potassium bicarbonate (NEJM paper).
- Consider renaming the article to make it clearer that it's about a modern dietary regimen, not the actual ancestral dietary practices. Possible name: "Paleolithic type diet"
- Verify this reference to determine whether it refers to the Paleolithic diet regimen. Rewrite critique regarding the antiquity of cereal grain processing in accordance with this source per this discussion at WP:NORN.
- Discuss health benefits of whole grains and other restricted foods and the relative absence of "diseases of civilization" in certain populations subsisting on such foods, in the "Nutritional factors and health effects" section, using this source:
- Discuss recent study in "Intervention studies" section.
- Create subheadings where appropriate so that criticism is easy to find, without using such titles as "criticism" and "controversy", as per WP:STRUCTURE.
- Create a subsection on "calcium and vitamin D" in the "micronutrient density" section to discuss these shortcomings. Use the following sources:
- Addressing these questions would help frame the article's subject in a broader context:
- What percentage of the population, and in what countries, eats this way?
- Among which age ranges, socio-economic statusses and cultural environments is it popular?
- Is this a fringe diet, or is it gaining significant popularity?
