The headline suggests that Morocco study is an exception to the norm:
If you look at the Amazonian Indians today, who are still practising hunter-gatherers (although they do some small scale farming too), they have an omnivore diet. The hunt animals, but also eat fruit and vegetables which grow in the Amazon. In hot and humid regions like the Amazon, fruit is in abundance.
Humans didn't reach the Americas until about 15-20,000 years ago, so I don't think they're very representative. I don't know if any humans from the other continents have relied on such a high proportion of plants before agriculture.
If the plant food is readily available, like fruit hanging from trees or root vegetables, I imagine humans are going to eat that. The benefit of being an omnivore is that you have a wider selection of possible food sources, and hunter-gatherers I don't think would have ignored plant food sources that are easy to find.
I would think that in pre-neolithic Africa, there would have been plant foods available. It's only when you go to ice covered areas like Inuit territory that you have no plant foods, so people then only eat meat.
Same here. Recently I've experienced gains again from taking Citrulline Malate before exercise.I sincerely believe this diet saved me from being bedbound and possibly saved my life. Then the gains stopped coming.
Yes, ruminant animals with their 4 chamber stomach are much better at removing plant toxins so their meat is very clean. I do notice a difference when I eat only ruminant meat (eg. beef, lamb). When I include pork or eggs the effect is noticed within 4 days.Is there any reason why a Lion Diet would be different?
Pentadecanoic Acid (C15:0), an Essential Fatty Acid, Shares Clinically Relevant Cell-Based Activities with Leading Longevity-Enhancing Compounds
Pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) is an essential odd-chain saturated fatty acid with broad activities relevant to protecting cardiometabolic, immune, and liver health. C15:0 activates AMPK and inhibits mTOR, both of which are core components of the human longevity ...
