Ape Diet

"Hominid Dietary Selection Before Fire."
Current Anthropology Vol. 25, No. 2 April 1984) 151-68.
Explains the constraints on human diet without fire. The following
are not edible to humans without technological intervention:
Grain without the chemistry of cooking is indigestable consisting of
flour, water and fiber ( in French "papier mache"). It is not eaten by
any species
of primate. The relationship between grain and cancer has been known
since 1843 when it was discovered that epidemological cancer rates
matched grain consumption everywhere in the world by the U of Paris
Medical School ( grain was the first idenified carcinogen being 120
years more mathmatically obvious than cigarettes). The reason for
this was only discovered in 2002 in Sweden ( google acrlyamides)when a
single slice of bread was assigned an Ames number of 300 ( cancer
ranking)- more than a full pack of cigarettes.
Potatoes are also undigestable raw yeilding less than 10% of their
nutritional value when eaten this way (raw). They are also the most
chemically contaiminated food one can buy in America ( source
Smithsonian Magazine) and contain lectins that inhibit vitamin
absorbtion leading to a particular type of blindness caused by vitamin
A deficency. The British used the potatoes to enslave the Irish just
as the Incas had forced their vanquished foes to eat them in their
surender ceremonies.
Beans ( legumes) are by definition poisonous when raw containing
pesticides produced by these types of plants in nature. These include
neurotoxins that have been linked to Altzheimer's in the second
largest long-term nutrition study ever conducted ( U of Hawaii Medical
School. They also contain xeno-estogens that have been linked to
abnormal sexual development in children and agressive forms of
estrogen dependent cancers.
Consuming the milk of other species has no correlation in Nature.
Bovine insulin found in milk has been linked to juvinile diabetes.
Exposure to bovive estrogens has been linked to both breast cancer and
prostate cancer. It is now know that cassien intolerance is
responsible for the vast majority of ear infections in children.
As to the history of the sucess of low-carb ( Paleolithic) diets see:
Knott,C. (1998). "Changes in orangutan diet, caloric intake and
ketones in response to fluctuating fruit availability." Int J Primatol
19: 1061-1079.
Seems apes have been doing the Atkins thing for tens of millions of
years though I'm glad I wasn't the guy following them around for two
years waiting to catch their urine falling from the tree tops to test
with ketosticks!

When Atkins(R) Apes order a PigMac, they throw the bun away!

I've never understood the need for people to impose their
nutrition beliefs on others. Let's face it. We know virtually
nothing about how food affects our bodies. It's a really,
really, really complicated subject. I think the fact that
what's popularly thought to be healthy seems to change from
year to year shows this most clearly.
I'm especially amused by people trying to use the "humans are
meant to eat X" argument based on archeological evidence. I'm
pretty sure that ancient humans ate anything they could damn
well get their hands on, as would you if you were perpetually
on the brink of starvation.
I'm sitting here in my nice protective house, wearing nice
warm clothes and while I'm not exactly rich, I have more money
than 99.9% of the population (hmmm... maybe I am rich). My
yearly food bill is roughly 1/30th of my net take-home. I
can eat whatever I want! :-)
From what I can tell, my life expectancy is about another 45
to 50 years, which is pretty damn nice. And that's if I eat
the way I am currently eating. 2000 years ago I wouldn't have
gotten 45 years *total*.
Sigh... some people need to chill out...
