I started following the advice and knowledge you spread on blog a while back and I’ve seen great results in fitness, energy levels, sleep, overall health! I feel like I owe you money or something lol

It's interesting how scientific studies that are unfavorable to a person's favorite diet are often interpreted as "attacks", revealing feelings of tribal identification. The appropriate response, of course, is a counterattack against the opposing tribe.

You Eat The Foods That Your Culture And Subculture Eat (The Food Your Peer Group Eats) And You Become Defensive When Told That Those Foods Aren't G00D For You And Resistant To The Idea Of Changing Your Diet! Why? because You Identify With Your Peer Group (What They Eat, Whether They Exercise, Whether They're Health Conscious). Your Identity Is Tied To Your Peer Group And If You Don't Conform To Their Norms (Their Beliefs And Behaviors, e.g. Diet) They Won't See You As One Of Them And You Won't See Yourself As One Of Them And You Don't Want To Lose Your Identity And Who You Identify With!

Our social connections are more important than our genetic connections in determining our health. The reason? Social connections influence our behavior. Using the power of peer pressure for good can make it easier to do the right thing.

If You Surround Yourself With Fat People Who Have Poor Eating Habits And Eat A Poor Diet You Too Will Become Fat!
If you do what everyone else is doing, you'll have the same body composition that they do: high body fat and little muscle. So, find out what everyone else is doing, and do the opposite.

80% OF YOUR BODY COMPOSITION (PHYSIQUE) IS DETERMINED BY YOUR GENES. THE REMAINING 20%* IS DETERMINED BY YOUR DIET (WHAT YOU EAT) AND YOUR LEVEL OF ACTIVITY (WHAT TYPE OF EXERCISE YOU ENGAGE IN AND HOW FREQUENTLY YOU ENGAGE IN IT). SO IF YOU WERE BORN WITH INFERIOR GENES IN RELATION TO BODY TYPE AND EAT ALL OF THE WRONG FOODS YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK LIKE THAT (LOOK LIKE HELL) REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH EXERCISE YOU DO. IN OTHER WORDS, WHAT YOU EAT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOW YOU EXERCISE AND HOW OFTEN YOU EXERCISE.

*15% OF THIS 20% IS A RESULT OF YOUR DIET.  FUZZY MATH!

"Island Raiders" ABC Four Corners 2004

lIKE The People Of Most Pacific Island Populations, The Inhabitants Of Nauru, Including Their Leaders And Government Officials, Suffer From High Time Preference Or The Inability To Delay Gratification, Think Long-term And Plan Ahead. Because Of This Genetic Shortcoming, They Are Now Experiencing The Consequences Of This No Longer Adaptive (Maladaptive) Thought And Behavior.

In Our Evolutionary Past, Hunting Was The Equivalent Of Working An Office Job And Food Was The Equivalent Of Money. If Saving Food Didn't Benefit A Population Because It Would Quickly Rot, People Would Gorge On Food As Soon As They Came Across Some And The Genes For Saving, Thinking Long-term, And Planning Head In That Population Would Not Be Selected For And Thus Would Not Spread Throughout The Population (A Large Percentage Of The Population Would Not Inherit Low Time Preference Genes*).

They're Discounting The Future. They're Living For The Moment. They're Placing More Emphasis And Importance On The Here And Now, Rather Than The There And Later. This Type Of Thought And Behavior Was Adaptive For Polynesian Populations During Most Of Their Evolution As Hunter-Gatherers When Food Was Hard To Come By And Couldn't Be Saved. (When You Can't Find Food Or Store It You've Got To Make The Most Of It When You Do Find It. There's No Point In Saving Some For Later Since It'll Go Bad.)

*The Selection For These Time Preference Genes Are Not Only Dependent Upon Hunting, But The Possession Of Property (And Other Personal Belongings), Child Rearing, Shelter Building, And Other Environmental Factors As Well.

Savings boost survival: food/resources get you through lean periods. Prudent to provide buffer against storm & starvation. Do all realise that?

...one important element underlying the existence of interest rates in any society is a behavior called time preference. Time preference is simply the idea that, everything else being equal, people prefer to consume now rather than later. It is the percentage by which the amount of consumption of a good next year must be higher than consumption this year for people to be indifferent between consuming now or later.
Time preference rates are very high in young children and decline as they age. Experiments suggest that American 6-year-olds have time preference rates on the order of 3 percent per day. That is, they will delay collecting a reward only if they are offered the equivalent of an interest rate of at least 3 percent per day, or a monthly interest rate of 150 percent. Time preference rates also vary across people within a society. They are higher among the poor and less educated. Children with high time preference rates in preschool in California did less well academically later and had lower SAT scores.
Anthropologists have devised ways to measure time preference rates in premarket societies. They look, for example, at the relative rewards of activities who benefits occur at different times in the future: digging up wild tubers of fishing with an immediate reward, as opposed to trapping with a reward delayed by days, as opposed to clearing and planting with a reward months in the future, as opposed to animal rearing with a reward years in the future.   
A recent study of Mikea forager-farmers in Madagascar found, for example, that the typical Mikea household planted less than half as much land as was needed to feed themselves. Yet the returns from shifting cultivation of maize were enormous. A typical yield was a minimum of 74,000 kilocalories per hour of work. Foraging for tubers, in comparison, yielded an average return of 1,800 kilocalories per hour. Despite this the Mikea rely on foraging for a larger share of their food, consequently spending most of their time foraging. This implies extraordinary high time preference rates. James Woodburn claimed that the Hadza of Tanzania showed a similar disinterest in distant benefits: "In harvesting berries, entire branches are often cut from the trees to ease the present problems of picking without regard to future loss of yield." Even the near future mattered little. The Piraha of Brazil are even more blind to future benefits. Daniel Everett, a linguistic anthropologist who has studied their language and culture for many years, concluded that future events and benefits were of almost no interest to them. (A Farewell to Alms)  

TIME PREFERENCE IS SO HIGH AMONG HUNTER-GATHERERS THAT THEY'D RATHER CONSUME THE FEWER CALORIES THAT THEY EITHER GATHERED, SCAVENGED, OR CAUGHT RIGHT NOW (i.e. digging up wild tubers of fishing with for an immediate reward), THAN TRAP GAME, PLANT CROPS, OR REAR ANIMALS, WHICH WILL PROVIDE FAR MORE CALORIES, BUT WHOSE REWARDS WILL TAKE MUCH LONGER TO REAP.

Polynesians Are FAT ASSES Now Because Of The Genes That They Have, Which Are Maladapted To This Current Environment. In Short, Polynesians Have Genes That Allow Them To Store FAT Easily And Excessively On A Minimal Amount Of Calories. So, In This Modern Environment Where High Caloric Food Is In Abundance And No Effort Is Needed To Acquire It (Or Even Survive For That Matter), Polynesians Can Easily Become FAT ASSES By Sitting Around And Just Eating A Little, Which They Do.

Most of the problems in human health come from being too domesticated. - from "Anaerobics" by


To Cope With Environmental Pressures Placed On Polynesians In Their Environment Of Evolutionary Adaptedness, Particularly In The Form Of Food Shortages And The Wind Chill Factor During Voyages, Those Polynesians That Could Swiftly Convert Food To Fat, Store More Fat, And Develop Large, Muscular Bodies Had Greater Reproductive Success, So The Genes Associated With This Metabolic And Body Type Increased In Frequency Until A Large Proportion Of The Polynesian Population Inherited These Genes.

In Our Modern Environment Where Most Polynesians Are Sheltered From The Elements, Where Most Polynesians Don't Engage In Much Physically Demanding Activity, And Where Most Polynesians Have Unlimited Access To High Caloric Foods, These Genes Are A Liability Because They, Coupled With The Environmental Factors I Stated Above, Lead To Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Diabetes, Dementia, Etc. So What Should Polynesians Do*? Cut Back On Their Carbohydrate Intake (Poor Food), Garden, Do Construction Work, And Walk More.

*Polynesian People, You Don't Have To Do All Of This Working Out Stuff. All You Have To Do Is Eat A Paleo Diet (Cut Out The Simple Carbohydrates From Your Diet), Walk Frequently For Long Durations At A Slow Pace, And Occasionally Garden And/Or Do Construction Work (Which Most Of You Already Do). Weight Training And Jogging Do More Harm To Your Body Than Good.

*In Fact, You Can Eat More Calories In The Form Of Saturated Fats, Omega-3 Fats, Monounsaturated Fats, And Proteins And Lose More Weight Than You Can Eating Fewer Calories. Why? Because Your Metabolic Rate Increases When You Eat The Right Fats And Proteins, Your Body Burns Fat As Opposed To Sugar When You The Right Fats And Proteins (Fewer Carbohydrates Means Less Glycogen To Burn For Energy So Your Body Burns Fat For Energy) And You Become Satiated Quicker And Much Longer When You Eat the Right Fats And Proteins (Less Consumption Of Carbohydrates Produces A Lower Spike In Your Blood Sugar Level Which Results In Less Insulin Secretion Into Your Bloodstream, Which In Turn Causes You To Feel Fuller Longer).

HEALTHY FATS

Trans Fats

Trans fats are considered the worst kind of fat for the brain, and they should be consumed in limited quantities. Trans fats are detrimental to one's health because they reduce the level of good cholesterol. In addition, they increase bad cholesterol levels in the body, leading to a buildup of fat in arteries. This restricts the proper circulation of blood, including that within the brain, and can lead to brain damage. Trans fats are found in several foods, including processed snacks such as chips and fried food, baked foods such as cakes and cookies, and hydrogenated vegetable oils such as stick margarine. Also, many restaurants prepare their food using trans fats. It is therefore wise to avoid any fried foods on the menu, including French fries, fried onion rings, chicken-fried steaks, and fried fish. It should be noted that even foods that have "zero trans" indicated on them are allowed to contain up to 0.5 grams of trans fats per serving.


 

Hydrogenated Fats

Hydrogenation adds hydrogen bonds to fats, which makes fat more solid at room temperature. As a result, hydrogenated fats contain tightly packed molecules that restrict blood supply to the brain, and therefore affect proper cognition. When fats are fully hydrogenated, they are referred to as saturated fat, and when they are partially hydrogenated, they are referred to as trans fat. Frozen packaged foods such as pizza and pot pie; snacks such as chips, dis, and crackers; and fats such as cake frosting, shortening, and stick margarine all contain partially hydrogenated oils.  
Too Many Of You Eat Too Much Omega-6 Fatty Acid.
I Don't Eat! That's Why I'm Healthy!

Believe it or not, you can get too much of a good thing, and protein is good for you only up to a certain point. You can include as much carbohydrate and fat in your diet as you like with no immediate ill effects, but the same can't be said for protein. In the typical US diet, protein makes up about 15 percent of our daily calories, whereas in hunter-gatherer diets it would have been considerably higher, ranging from 25 to 40 percent of the daily energy intake. Laboratory studies in humans show that the maximum amount of protein we can ingest on a regular basis is about 40 percent of our daily calories. Anything above this and we get sick - a lesson our hunter-gatherers knew quite well. Early frontiersmen and explorers also knew exactly what happened when they were forced to eat only the lean meat of fat-depleted animals. They called this sickness "rabbit starvation." After eating enormous quantities of very lean meat, they would become nauseated and irritable, lose weight, develop diarrhea, and eventually die. They were better off starving than continuing to eat only lean meat. The only way around this situation: Get either fat or carbohydrate into the diet to dilute the protein level to below 40 percent.

In the modern world, it is easy to change the fat content of any food. Lobster is extremely lean (84 percent of its energy is protein) and would quickly cause protein poisoning if that's all you ate. Most of us prefer to dip our lobster in melted butter, which allows us to eat all we want and never develop any symptoms of protein excess. Hunter-gatherers weren't so lucky. Fat and protein came in a single packet - the animals carcass. Either the animal had fat on it or it didn't. There was no such thing as adding fat to a food. Similarly, if you were to eat a carbohydrate source such as brown rice or potatoes along with the lobster, you'd dilute the protein below the crucial 40 percent ceiling and have no problems whatsoever. However, until the development of agriculture and domestication of cereal grains, hunter-gatherers, particularly those living at higher altitudes, had no reliable year-round source of carbohydrate.

Now let's answer the question of why Stone Age hunters risked life and limb on a regular basis to kill large, unruly beasts. Large animals are fat animals. The larger a species, the more body fat it has. The average body fat content of a small animal like a squirrel (1 pound) is 5.2 percent by weight, whereas a large animal such as a musk ox (900 pounds) has 20.5 percent body fat by weight. If we look at the squirrel's body fat by total calories rather than weight, it's clear why the sole consumption of squirrels would cause protein poisoning. A squirrels entire body is 35 percent fat by energy (calories) and 65 percent protein - way over the 40 percent ceiling. In contrast, the musk ox's body is 73 percent fat and 27 percent protein. A carcass containing only 27 percent protein can easily be consumed in its entirety without even coming close to the protein ceiling.

The fossil record unmistakably tells us that ancestral humans have always included meat and animal foods in their diets, but there is tantalizingly little evidence showing how much plant food was typically consumed. Fortunately, anthropologists have developed a clever procedure that can give us a rough approximation of the dietary ration of animal to plant by measuring stable isotopes in the fossilized bones and teeth of long-dead hominins. Stable isotopes are elements like carbon 13 and nitrogen 15 that vary slightly from the normal versions. Julia Lee-Thorp, PhD, and her colleagues from the University of Cape Town in South Africa have measure stable isotopes in many of the very first hominins that were living in Africa 1 to 3 million years ago, and she concluded that all ate significant quantities of both animal and plant foods. Using stable isotopes to examine the diets of Neanderthals living in Europe 30,000 years ago, Mike Richards, PhD, of the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom concluded, "The isotope evidence overwhelmingly points to the Neanderthals behaving as top-level carnivores." In a similar study of Stone Age people living in England 12,000 years ago, he summarized, "We were testing the hypothesis that these humans had a mainly hunting economy, and therefore a diet high in animal protein. We found this to be the case..."

...

Hundreds, if not thousands, of descriptions of hunter-gatherers and what they ate have been written throughout historical times. These accounts were penned by explorers, sailors, trappers, frontiersmen, physicians, anthropologists, and others who encountered native peoples during their travels. Fortunately, an industrious anthropologist, George Murdock, PhD, took it upon himself to compile and organize historical accounts not only of hunter-gatherers but of all the world's cultures and how they lived. His enormous database included more than 100 specific data points for each society. In 1967, Dr. Murdock completed his life's work with the publication of a massive volume called the Ethnographic Atlas, a work that allows anybody to easily compare and contrast any society or culture.

One year after the publication of Dr. Murdock's massive volume, a young anthropologist at Harvard, Richard Lee, PhD, utilized some of the hunter-gatherer data from the Ethnographic Atlas to establish the plant-to-animal composition in the average hunter-gatherer diet. Dr. Lee concluded that hunted animal foods composed 35 percent of the energy in the average hunter-gatherer diet and that plant food made up the balance (65 percent). For the next 3 decades, Dr. Lee's conclusion became the unquestioned dogma in anthropological circles. Unfortunately, his analysis was flawed, and it wasn't corrected until 32 years later with our publication of a reanalysis of the Ethnographic Atlas's hunter-gatherer data. Let me show you how I came to this conclusion.

It's pretty hard to overeat raw carrots and celery - in fact, most of us have had enough after one or two carrots or celery stalks. Can you imagine eating 65 percent of your daily calories from celery? An active man who takes in 3,000 calories a day would have to eat 27 pounds of celery to obtain 65 percent of his daily calories from this plant food. Okay, perhaps celery is an extreme example. How about tomatoes? Try 20 pounds! Cantaloupe maybe? Twelve pounds! Perhaps potatoes would work: To get 65 percent of 3,000 calories (1,950 calories), you would have to eat 4 pounds. This is a doable situation. But the problem is that most wild tubers and roots bear little resemblance to today's thoroughly domesticated potatoes. Compared with their modern counterparts, wild tubers are smaller, usually more fibrous, less starchy, and, therefore, not nearly as calorie dense.

It became increasingly clear to me that only a very few wild plant foods could be consumed at quantities approaching 65 percent of the daily caloric intake. These were oily nuts and seeds, tubers, and cereal grains. Grains were out of the equation because they were rarely, if ever, consumed by hunter-gatherers, as explained in the Introduction. Also, when hunter-gatherers forage for food, they need to make some critical decisions. First, they must get more energy from the food they are hunting or gathering than the energy they expend to obtain it. It would be a losing proposition to run around all day using up 800 calories, only to bring back 500 calories. Second, hunter-gatherers prioritize food choices relative to their energy return rate. These are the foods that give them the most "bang for their buck" - large animals are preferred over small, and animal foods are almost always preferred over plant foods. Anthropologists have dubbed these hunter-gatherer decisions "optimal foraging theory."

At any rate, all of this information made me suspicious. It seemed unlikely that plant foods could have made up the majority of daily calories in the typical hunter-gatherer diet. So I went back to the original Ethnographic Atlas, plugged all the data points for  the 229 hunter-gatherer societies into a spreadsheet, and reanalyzed the whole kit and caboodle. I completed my analysis on Christmas Day 1997 and could not believe my eyes. Not only the results different from Richard Lee's analysis, they were exactly reversed. Plant foods represented about 35 percent of the total calories, while animal foods stood out at 65 percent! How could this be? I carefully checked all of the more than 2,000 data points - no errors there. Hmm! What was going on?

At last I saw it. Dr. Lee had failed to include fished animal foods along with hunted animal foods in determining the overall animal-to-plant subsistence ratio.

One of the huge problems with ethnographic studies is that they are almost entirely subjective. We went back to some of the original studies that Dr. Murdock had used to estimate the subsistence ratios and were dumbfounded at how he did it. There were absolutely no concrete data in many of these accounts of hunter-gatherers to show how much meat or plant food was consumed. Using some of the accounts as a starting point, my research team and I rooted out each and every quantitative study in which the foods were weighted and the caloric content know. It turned out that 13 reports could be used. Two of them involved Eskimos, who have no choice but to eat animal food, so we were down to 11 reports. These more robust, quantitative studies were in agreement with our earlier analysis and once again demonstrated that animal foods made up two-thirds of the average energy intake in hunter-gatherer diets.

So these three separate lines of evidence (other primate diets, the fossil record, and ethnographic studies) now independently point to the notion that meat, organs, and animal foods have always been a significant part of the diet to which we are genetically adapted. But, as you'll see in chapter 9, wild animals and domesticated, feedlot-produced animals are worlds apart nutritionally. Eating a modern diet with 65 percent of its energy coming from fatty meats produced from grain-fed animals is not even close to resembling our ancestral diet.

...

A crucial aspect of the 21st -century Paleolithic diet is the proper balance of plant and animal foods. How much plant food and how much animal food were normally consumed in the diets of Stone Age hunter-gatherers? There is little doubt that whenever and wherever it was ecologically possible, hunter-gatherers preferred animal food over plant food. In our recent study of 229 hunter-gatherer societies, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, my research team showed that 73 percent of these cultures obtained between 56 and 65 percent of their daily subsistence from animal foods. In a follow-up study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, involving 13 additional hunter-gatherer groups whose diets were more closely analyzed, we found almost identical results. Our colleague, Mike Richard, PhD, of the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom, has taken a slightly different approach in determining the plant-to-animal balance in Stone Age diets. He has measured chemicals called stable isotopes in skeletons of hunter-gatherers that lived during the Paleolithic Era. His results dovetailed nicely with ours and confirmed that hunter-gatherers living 12,000 to 28,000 years ago were no different from contemporary hunter-gatherers - the majority of their daily calories also came from animal sources.


Based upon the best available evidence, you should try to eat a little more than half (50 to 50 percent) of daily calories from lean meats, fish, and seafood. Avoid fatty meats, but fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, and herring are perfectly acceptable because of their high concentrations of healthful omega-3 fatty acids and cholesterol lowering monounsaturated fats...

Some people who have adopted what they think are "Paleolithic diets" have embraced fatty meats such as bacon, T-bone steaks, and ribs as staples. Even some of the diet doctors with high-fat, low-carbohydrate weight-loss schemes  have tried to jump on the Paleolithic bandwagon by suggesting that fatty meats would  have been normal fare for Stone Agers. Let's take a look at the real story.

Because animals had yet to be domesticated, Stone Age hunters could eat only wild animals whose body fat naturally waxes and wanes with the seasons. In contrast, virtually all of the meat in the typical US diet comes from grain-fattened animals, slaughtered at peak body-fat percentage regardless of the time of year. For instance, modern feedlot operations typically produce an obese (30 percent by fat or greater) 1,2000-pound steer ready for slaughter in about 14 months. These animals are produced like clockwork, 12 months a year, no matter whether its spring, summer, fall, or winter. That's quite the opposite of wild animals such as caribou, whose body fat changes with the seasons...for 7 months out of the year, caribou total body fat averages less than 5 percent. Only in the fall and early winter are significant body fat stores present, but these values are one-half to two-thirds less than the obese feedlot-produced steer.

Even more telling is how the types of fat change seasonally in the carcasses of wild animals. Remember, hunter-gatherers relished all edible body parts - they ate everything except bones, hooves, hide, and horns. By analyzing the total amount of fat and the kinds of fat in muscle, storage fat, and all of the edible organs, our research team was able to show how the animal's total body content of saturated fat varied with the seasons...for 7 months out of the year, the saturated fat from the edible carcass averages only 11.1 percent of its total available calories - meaning that hunter-gatherers simply did not have a high, year-round dietary source of saturated fat. To lower our cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease, the American Heart Association recommends that out dietary saturated fat intake be 10 percent of our total daily calories - remarkably close to what hunter-gatherers could have obtained from eating wild animals on a year-round basis! For this reason we recommend that you always eat the leanest cuts of meat.

  1. Healthy fats shut down cravings, speed up metabolism, and can help prevent and reverse heart disease, not cause it.

  1. Dietary fat doesn't make you fat.

There is absolutely no doubt that hunter-gatherers favored the fattiest parts of animals. There is incredible fossil evidence from Africa, dating back to 2.5 million years ago, showing this scenario to be true. Stone-tool cut marks on the inner jawbone of antelope reveal that our ancient ancestors removed the tongue and almost certainly ate it. Other fossils show that Stone Age hunter-gatherers smashed open long bones and skulls of their prey and ate the contents. Not surprisingly, these organs are all relatively high in fat; but, more important, analyses from our laboratories showed the type of fat in the tongue, brain, and marrow are healthful, unlike the high concentration of saturated fats found in fatty domestic meats. Brain is extremely high in polyunsaturated fats, including the health-promoting omega-3 fatty acids, whereas the dominant fats in tongue and marrow are the cholesterol lowering monounsaturated fats.


Most of us would not savor the thought of eating brains, marrow, tongue, liver or any other organ meat on a regular basis; therefore, a few 21-st century modifications of the original Paleolithic diet are necessary to get the fatty acid balance "right." First, we suggest you limit your choice of meats to very lean cuts, but don't worry about the fatty fish - they're good for you, just like the organ meats our ancestors preferred. Second, we recommend that you add healthful vegetable oils to your diet. By following these simple steps, together with the other nuts and bolts of this plan, the fatty acid balance in your diet will approximate what our Stone Age ancestors got.

From our analysis of 229 hunter-gatherer diets and the nutrient content of wild plants and animals, our research team has demonstrated that the most representative fat intake would have varied from 28 to 57 percent of total calories. To reduce risk of heart disease, the American Heart Association recommends limiting total fat to 30 percent or less of daily calories. On the surface, it would appear that, except for the extreme lower range there would be too much fat in the typical hunter-gatherer diet - at least according to what we (the American public) have heard for decades: Get the fat out of your diet! The Food Pyramid cautions us to cut out as much fat as as possible and replace it with grains and carbohydrates. Not only is this message misguided, it is flat-out wrong. Scientists have known for more than 50 years that it is not the total amount of fat in the diet that promotes heart disease, but rather, the kind of fat. Plain and simple, it is a qualitative issue, not a quantitative one! Polyunsaturated fats are good for us, particularly when we correctly balance the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Monounsaturated fats are heart-healthy, and even some saturated fats such as stearic acid (found in animal fat) do not promote heart disease. Deadly fats are three specific saturated fats (palmitic acid, lauric acid, and myristic acid) and the trans fats found in margarine, shortening, and hydrogenated vegetable oils, as well as processed foods made with these products.
This study found that higher saturated fat intake was associated with lower stroke risk (Yes, you read that correctly.) In fact, for every 10 g/d increase in saturated fat intake, there was a 6% decrease in the risk of stroke. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31791641-dieta

Now let's get back to the fat content of our ancestral hunter-gatherer diet.  They frequently ate more fat than we do, but it was almost inevitable healthy fats. Using computerized dietary analysis of the wild plant and animal foods, our research team has shown that the usual fat breakdown in hunter-gatherer diets was 55 to 65 percent monounsaturated fat , 20 to 25 percent polyunsaturated fat (with an omega-6-to-omega-3 ratio of 2:1), and 10 to 15 percent saturated fat (about half being the neutral stearic acid). This balance of fats is exactly what you'll get when you follow our dietary recommendations.

Cautious, innovative, and absolutely versatile, the diverse Cro-magnon societies of the Last Glacial Maximum were an exemplar of all later arctic hunter-gatherer societies. The number of cultural options available to people living in extremely cold environments are necessarily limited by the realities of long winters with very low temperatures, strong winds, snow, and ice.

Obviously, everyone was well aware of the hazards that confronted them: overheating, frostbite, and fat deprivation caused by eating too much lean meat. Fat provided vital calories and was a central part of their diet. Cro-Magnons lived in environments where energy sources were in short supply during the winter months. Fat is a source of energy and heat when food is scarce. Birds and mammals, for example, use more than 85 percent of their dietary calories to maintain a constant body temperature. A genetic ability to fatten rapidly is an adaptive response to scarce times of the year. Many animals use fat as a way of transferring energy from the season of abundance to that of scarcity. Most animals living in late Ice Age Europe and Eurasia needed large fat reserves to survive the tough conditions of the winter. Winter saw slowly declining body weights that could sometimes assume lethal proportions. Fortunately for most animals, the arrival of spring arrested the decline. Were Cro-Magnons any different?

In human terms, any diet of lean muscle has few calories, about one thousand per 2.2 pounds (1 kilogram) of dry weight. Hunters working hard outside in cold environments could easily metabolize about four thousand to five thousand calories a day, equivalent to about 9 to 11 pounds (4 to 5 kilograms) of lean dried meat. That would be just enough to maintain their weight, let alone put on more poundage. Fat was only available from their prey for a relatively short time each year, in late summer and early fall, when reindeer and other animals had accumulated massive fat deposits. This is why late-summer and fall hunts were so important in Cro-Magnon life and probably why many of the animals depicted on cave walls appear with swollen bellies, with the massive fat deposits that carried them through winter. At the time of the fall hunts, everyone, animal or human, was searching for fat. Thus, argues paleontologist R. Dale Guthrie, it would be hazardous to keep much of it around one's camp for fear of attack. He believes that people put on weight by eating large quantities of fat as they acquired it so that they, like the animals, could survive the lean months ahead.
...

...The men drag the carcasses from the water to the sloping riverbank. There they split open the bellies with a single stroke, reaching inside the stomach cavity to disembowel their prey. They remove the liver and kidneys, then they detach the hindquarters from the trunk. Reindeer tongues are a delicacy, so they avulse them by slicing through the skin under the tongue. People grab hunks of fresh meat and fat, wolfing them down as the blood spills over their chins and clothes.

...

Back in camp, men and women dump heavy loads of skins and flesh. While the hunters dismember the carcasses, cut off the flesh, and hang it up in strips to dry, the women scrape the fat off the skins and then peg them out on frames or the ground to dry. People reach for a limb bone, smash it open, tap it on a rock, and suck out the yellow marrow. Marrow is fat and is always a delicacy. Reindeer tongues cook on sticks over the hearths...

...

Day after day, hunters prey on the migrating reindeer as they cross the river. Then, after a week or two, the seasonal migration ends abruptly, almost as if a faucet has been turned off. The hunters dry the last of the flesh and stake out the final hides. Everyone gorged on fat and marrow while they can. The women have smashed up spongy backbone and limb ends and boiled them in simple containers to extract as much grease as possible. They store as much reindeer fat as they can in leather bags, to be hung high off the ground in their rock shelter bases for the winter...

...

The people would have hunted migrating reindeer in spring, but like humans, the beasts would have been lean and fat deprived after the long winter months. The herds were in their best condition in late summer and fall. Their coats were soft and springy. A mature reindeer can carry 30 pounds (13.6 kilograms) of fat under its hide. This is why the fall hunt was of prime importance to the Cro-Magnons, for it was then that they acquired their stocks of fat, hides, and dried flesh to meet winter needs. We know just how important it was, for little has changed for subsistence hunters since then. As was often the case for historic caribou hunters in Canada's Barren Lands, there must have been years when there was insufficient fat to provide both food and fuel. Yet the people managed to stay alive in unheated dwellings because of efficient clothing, by spending a great deal of time under heavy furs, by sleeping in close proximity, and by burning off the fat stored in their bodies from summer. For about six to eight months a year, depending on the severity of the winter, most Cro-Magnon bands would have relied on stored food from late-summer and fall hunts. Spring and early summer would have been a stressful time of potential hunger even in good years.

Plant foods also naturally promote a beneficial balance between acidity and alkalinity (also known as "base", or non-acidic balance, in your bloodstream). Almost all cells prefer a slightly alkaline environment to function properly, but many metabolic processes, including the normal production of cellular energy, result in the release of acidic waste products. The buildup of acidic waste is toxic to your body, so it works very hard at all times to preserve a slightly alkaline environment, measured by the familiar "pH" levels. While we have evolved several highly refined buffering systems to balance our pH, ingesting too many acid-producing foods and not enough alkaline-forming foods makes it that much more difficult to achieve pH homeostasis.

As you might guess, consuming heavily processed foods, sugars, grains, deep-fried foods, alcohol, caffeine, cigarettes, carbonated drinks, artificial sweetners, and many recreational and prescription drugs are acid-forming in the body, a precursor to many health problems and diseases. In contrast, by eating sufficient amounts of alkaline--forming foods - vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds, you optimize your acid/base balance and improve metabolism to burn fat, build muscle, and reduce your susceptibility to environmental and dietary toxins. Meat and diary products also happen to be acid-forming, making it essential to balance the intake of these foods with sufficient vegetables and fruits that support alkalinity.

A High Carbohydrate Diet Creates An Acidic Body And Too Much Acidity Forces Your Body To Pull Calcium From Teeth And Bones To Level Out Your pH, Resulting In Weaker Teeth And Bones (Your Teeth And Bones Easily Chip/Break If The Acidic Level In Your Body Is Too High). So It's Not The Process Of Sugar From Candy Or Soda Or Other Sugary Foods Binding To Your Teeth And Eventually Rotting Your Teeth That Does The Most Damage (It's The Acidity That Sugar Produces That Does The Damage), But Rather The Acidity Created By A High Carbohydrate Diet That Does. I Do!


It's ironic that we distrust sugar but regard starch as a natural food. Fruit is full of sugar. Anthropologists have found evidence that honey, which is 100 percent sugar, was more plentiful in prehistoric times than it is now. Early humans ate it for millions of years before starch came on the scene. Our tongues have taste buds that respond to sugar but none that interact with starch.

Paranoia about sugar probably stems from childhood. Sugar was the first food our parents warned us about, but it wasn't because they were worried about our getting fat. It was because they didn't want us to get tooth decay. Indeed, sweets can be bad for children's teeth; however, the problem is not so much candy itself as the frequency with which kids eat it. Acids from the bacterial breakdown of sugar in our mouths erode tooth enamel. Saliva neutralizes those acids and restores enamel, but the process takes several hours. When kids snack on candy and soda between meals, their saliva doesn't have time to counteract the acids, which eventually promotes tooth decay. 

 
High blood sugar presents a triple threat to good oral health. First, it compromises your ability to fight infection, so even a small cold sore or tiny pocket of bacteria below the gum line could lead to serious trouble. Second, it raises the level of glucose in saliva, says Sol Silverman Jr., DDS, professor of oral medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, School of Dentistry and a spokesman for the American Dental Association. The "sweeter" saliva supports the growth of fungal (thrush) and bacterial infections. Third, high blood sugar can dry up saliva, leaving you with less of this vital infection-fighting moisture when you need it most.

THAT WHITE DEVIL SENDING YOU ALL STRAIT TO HELL!

Refined Sugar

Refined sugar has all of its fiber, minerals, protein, fats, and enzymes depleted, leaving only empty calories. as a result, the body needs to take away nutrients such as calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium from its healthy cells to be able to metabolize the sugar. If the body lacks the nutrients it needs to metabolize sugar, the waste produced builds up in the brain and nervous system, causing damage. When sugar is consumed regularly, it causes the body to have too much acid. In an attempt to restore the acid-alkaline ratio, the body uses up its stores of vitamins and minerals, depriving the brain and other structures of these minerals.

Sugar effects the processing of other compounds in the body. For instance, when sugar is consumed, it kills some good bacteria found in the intestines that are responsible for manufacturing vitamin B compounds that help in the processing of glutamic acid, a compound found in vegetables. If glutamic acid is not processed due to the level of vitamin B compounds declining, a decrease in brain function and sleepiness occur.

Several foods and drinks contain refined sugars, including the following:
  • Soda
  •  Energy drinks
  • Fruit juice mixes
  • Candy
  • Sweetened cereal
  • Jams
  • Jellies
  • Baked goods
  • Frozen pizza
  • Spaghetti sauce
  • Canned fruits
  • Canned vegetables
The effects of sugary foods become more detrimental as people age. As people grow older, there is a loss of bone density, a reduction in body mass, and a body fat increase around the heart and other organs. With all these changes, sugar can be damaging since it targets the liver, heart, and pancreas. While it is not harmful to have an occasional sugary snack, consuming meals high in sugar on a regular basis can cause problems such as obesity. Being overweight as an elderly person places strain on the muscle and bones.

Sugar Substitutes

Since the brain requires glucose as the main source of energy, proper sugar balance is important for Alzheimer's patients. Sugary foods are considered high glycemic index foods. The glycemic index measures how much certain foods raise blood sugar levels. Clinical research notes that foods that rank high in the glycemic index are digested quickly and result in blood sugar levels spiking rapidly. This causes problems with brain function such as making eyes susceptible to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which affects the retina of the eye and is the top cause of vision loss in the United States.

Sugar substitutes might not be any better than refined sugar after all. Aspartame, a low calorie sweetener, is used in several diet sodas and other diet foods. Aspartame leads to damage to the nervous system because, when it is digested, it releases a compound that excites brain neurons, causing them to fire repeatedly until they eventually die. This interferes with normal brain function. It is also possible that, when aspartame is digested, it releases methanol in the small intestines. Methanol causes visual problems by interrupting the retina and optic nerve transmissions. While formal studies have not been done on the effect of aspartame on visions, there have been thousands of reports of visual problems from people who drink too many drinks containing aspartame.


The worst diet for maintaining proper cognitive function includes high gylcemic index foods and hydrogenated fats. Foods in these categories cause blockage in the circulatory system, which reduces blood flow in the brain, depriving the brain cells of oxygen and important nutrients necessary for maintaining proper cognitive ability.

High Glycemic Index Foods

Foods that rank high in the glycemic index include highly processed simple carbohydrates found in the following:
  • White flour
  • Foods made from refined flour, such as white bread, donuts, and cakes
  • Starchy foods such as white rice
  • Sugary snacks such as frosting and candy
  • Sugar- and syrup-sweetened drinks such as cola and juices

Well, We're Not Just Carnivores. We're Omnivores. We Don't Just Subsist On Meats. We Eat Fruits, Vegetables, Nuts, Seeds, Etc. So We Need The Extra Intestinal Length To Digest These Non-Meat Foods. 

Most Populations (Races) Don't Metabolize An Excess Of Carbohydrates (Sugars, Starches) Well, Which Is The Diet That Most Of Them Are On, Because It Boosts Insulin Levels And Insulin Levels That Are High For Extended Periods Of Time Cause Havoc On Your Digestive System, Cardiovascular System, Endocrinological System, Reproductive System, Etc.
Humans Are Adapted To Eating Cooked Food. Ancestral Humans Started Cooking Food, Especially Meat About 1-2 Million Years Ago. So That Means Our Digestive System Has Evolved Adaptations Over These Millions Of Years To Digest Cooked Food More Easily By Expending Less Energy, Consume More Calories By Eating More Cooked Food, And Extract More Vitamins And Minerals From Cooked Food, Among Other Things. (More Calories From Cooked Food Translates Into More Energy For The Brain And Body.)

That's Because We're Not Entirely Carnivores. We Eat A Variety Of Foods, Some Of Which Are Starches. So It Makes Sense That We Evolved An Enzyme To Breakdown Starches. We're Omnivores And As Omnivores We've Evolved A Number Of Adaptations To Breakdown The Different Foods We Eat (Protein, Sugar, Fat, Etc). Just Because We Have The Amylase Enzyme Doesn't Mean We Didn't Evolve To Eat Meat. In Fact, A Large Percentage Of Our Diet Throughout Evolutionary History Has Consisted Of Meat.

Humans Have An Innate Aversion To Prolonged And Persistent Consumption Of Raw Meat. Plus, Humans Don't Absorb The Same Amount Of Vitamins And Minerals When They Eat Raw Meat As They Do With Cooked Meat.

Meat Eating Was One Of The Factors That Led To The Expansion In Brain Size In Our Hominin Lineage Over Millions Of Years. As Our Hominin Ancestors Relied More On Meat For Their Daily Sustenance, Greater Nutrients Were Extracted From This Diet (Particularly Protein), So Stomach Size Shrunk* And Brain Size Grew. *If You're Depending More On Meat And Eating Fewer Vegetables You Won't Need As Much Intestinal Volume To Digest Your Food (The Reason Why Carnivores Have Smaller Intestines). 

The Amount Of Calories You Eat Isn't As Important As The Type Of Calories You Eat. A Diet High In Carbohydrates Won't Keep You Satiated As Long As One That's High In Protein And Fat. Why? because Carbohydrates Don't Fuel Cells As Thoroughly And Properly As Fats And Proteins Do. So If Your Cells Are In A Constant State Of Energy Deprivation From A Lack Of Fuel (Nutrients) You'll Feel Hungry Sooner After Meals And More Often Throughout The Day, Which Will Lead You To Overeat And Not Burn Fat.

CARTA: The Evolution of Human Nutrition -- Richard Wrangham: Fire Starch Meat and Honey


The fact remains that no culture or society has ever survived for an extended period of time on a meatless diet. While it would seem to be much easier to live and evolve without having to run and around kill animals, the truth is that we need the concentrated, nutrient-rich energy source of meat to support accelerated brain development - our distinguishing feature that brought us to the top of the food chain.

Remarkably, about 500 calories a day are required just to fuel the human brain (both primitive and modern brains). Anthropological evidence strongly suggests that it was saturated fats, protein and omega-3 fatty acids from animal foods that provided both the raw materials and energy necessary for the human brain to grow larger and more sophisticated over the course of evolution. Our ability to catch and cook meat (cooking makes meat easier to chew, swallow, and digest) was critical in our branching up and away from our mostly vegetarian ape cousins. (The Primal Blueprint. Mark Sisson.)
