Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Fair enough, I admit I'm wrong on that point then, but I still stand by the rest.

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

All carbs trigger insuline, junk or not. Junk are definitely much worse due to higher glycemic rates, carcinogens and inflammatory factors, but it's clearly more than a question of junk food, since, like I said, most modern disease is related to blood sugar. If I lived in a tropical tribe, far away ...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

No one on a keto diet is eating processed bacon and prepackaged meals, cmon... (when I say no one I don't mean 0%, but close to). Why you keep insisting on such an insane argument. People on keto are 100% conscious of the junk food problem. Some are eating home-cooked muscle meat, following the advi...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Also, just because we possibly have eaten cooked foods for a long time, doesn't mean we can still do well with it in a world with much more toxins and mutagens from the environment. Same for fruit - even if tropical humans have evolved eating a considerable ammount (still not nearly as much as meat)...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Agriculture only started 10k years ago. That's nothing/little in evolutinary terms. There's no way we've been eating grains for more than that. Fruit is abundant in the tropics but monkeys and birds will outcompete you. Where's the frutarian tropical tribes? Nowhere. They still eat a lot of fruit, b...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

The idea of our natural diet is interesting to me, personally I believe many groups of humans have been cooking, eating grains, as well as fruits, vegetables, meats, fish, etc for much longer than most people think. Cooking, yes, but edible vegetables and grains are extremely scarce in the wild. Do...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Also: chimpanzees, as with most frutarians, also eat leaves, stems and bark. Go see if any tribe eats that outside of literal starvation.

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

No real frutarian needs to juice their fruit to better digest them. All frutarians have no problem digesting and assimilating whole fruit. If we really were frutarians, the same would apply. On the other hand, no (normal) human will have any problem digesting raw meat. Even if we came from apes (and...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

A juice diet is really not the liver's best friend. Nor the pancreas'. If anything, the juice argument only proves that we are not frutarians. So, we need to juice fruits to better digest them? No truly frutarian animal needs to do that, since they have larger colons where they can better ferment th...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

RRM, On fruit vs animal foods, ok, I'm glad that you finally answered my question (no offense). Those seem like legit reasons to me, even thought I don't necessarily agree. As I said before, I'm only spending 20% more since eating animal based. But that's cause I go for the quality stuff. I could sp...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

True, hypervitaminosis is nothing but a toxic reaction to man-made chemicals which we somehow call nutrients. Otherwise the Eskimos and the Maasai would be plagued by it, specially when their animal foods are indefinitely more nutrient dense than what most of us currently have acess to.

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Panacea, exactly. In the modern context we need way more nutrients, to cleanse the overwhelming ammount of toxins we're exposed too, and heal the overwhelming ammount of oxidative stress. Not to mention wild plants are several times higher in nutrients than our farmed, man-made ones. To live on mode...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Aytundra, Maybe, if you eat nothing but protein. There's also something called the rabbit starvation, when people ate nothing but protein (and no fat) and therefore developed disease. That's because both are essential nutrients for humans (carbs aren't). If you eat only 1, or eat little of either of...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

Also, I'll stress again that the vitamin C argument is a very poor one, since I've always agreed that we're fruit eaters but very little fruit is needed to fill the vitC requirements, specially when you're eating low on carbs. To think that the vitC argument justifies eating like chimpanzees is at l...

Re: Wai should be high in animal foods and low in fruit/carbs

I'm not gonna dispute most of what you said because science is not conclusive on these issues yet, so i guess we're just gonna have to agree to disagree. Yet, you still haven't answered what's the advantage of fruit over animal foods, which makes you advocate a heavily fruit-based diet. If both frui...
