Exactly. I haven't watched video yet but my first thought is how can you "debunk " a natural , unprocessed whole food diet? Is basically how everyone ate before mass production and fast food chains when there was practically no obesity and heart disease and much lower cases of cancer, migraines, allergies, to name a few. But without the grains. I didn't realize gluten and beans were the cause of my stomach bloat, allergies and headaches till I went Paleo. So again, how can you "debunk" science -based facts where most if not everyone has same results.

You are right. They didn't eat dairy either. I'm basing my health journey on the blue zones. The blue zones have been studied in real time with no guessing on what they eat or don't eat. Mainly plant based with very small amounts of meat on special/celebratory occasions. No sugar, no wheat, no dairy. Whole food carbohydrates like potato, sweet potato and rice with lots of veges and salad. This has been very healing for my autoimmune disease.

I'm a Medical Anthropologist and there were good points along with important data points left out here. I would say epigenetics should have been discussed in the beginning. The archeology record does show hunter gatherers were on average taller, had better teeth and much less evidence of infectious disease than agriculturist societies. We also have Neanderthal fossilized poop that shows a diet that was around 90% meat. Humans are definitely evolved to be hunter-gatherer omnivores. Also there is no hyper-masculinity shown in the ads just masculinity and I do like eating a big pile of meat myself but I want my fruits and veggies along with it! The diversity of whole foods is definitely important and our industrialized food production over focus on limited items being concentrated into much of the food that many people are limiting themselves to is producing bad results along with all the environmental constimination from pesticides, pharmaceuticals and other chemicals that are being detected in our water supplies, rivers and oceans.

Advisory On Moose Liver and Kidney Consumption The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that the liver and kidneys of moose not be eaten because of possible contamination with the heavy metal cadmium. Several states, Canadian provinces and Scandinavian countries have issued similar warnings. While cadmium may accumulate in the liver and kidneys, there is no known health risk from eating the meat of moose or deer. Air pollution from copper and nickel industries and from the burning of fossil fuels accounts for much of the cadmium deposited in eastern North America. Cadmium is ingested by moose with their food. Maine health officials recommend that deer liver consumption be limited to 0.8 pounds in one sitting and 1 to 1 1/3 pounds per week. Human symptoms of acute cadmium poisoning include severe nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle cramps and salivation.

We have more sweat glands than any other mammal which helps make us perfect distance runners, a trait that only makes sense if we were persistence hunters. The ability to run extremely long distances at moderate speeds is not useful for a herbivore. Humans need to consume fat and protein in order to survive, we don't need to consume carbohydrates. Our bodies can synthesize the carbohydrates we need. Our brains need omega 3 in order to fully develop, which is found in high levels in many animals. It's not very easy to find omega 3 in fruits, vegetables and grains. I could go on and on showing evidence that we evolved to eat meat because we evolved to eat.

Modern research shows that our link between heart health and red meat is most likely wrong, and it's mostly genetic. I saw a ted talk a few weeks ago from a PhD nutritionist who argued that there is to much variety in people, diet and environment to determine what if anything our diet contributes to health outside of direct cause/effect (if you eat a tide pod you die, if you drink milk and get sick probably lactose intolerance, if you get sick after eating grains could be gluten allergy.) How many of those people who went on the paleo diet simultaneously started working out? Obviously if you start working out you'll get better health.

An example about plant eating: using modern hand tools one person can collect 15 KG of blackberries in 10 hours of work. The work is hard. The person will burn about 4000-5000 kcal for the work. Now, to replenish lost energy that person needs to eat 8-9 KG of the berries, which is impossible. Imaging doing the same work by bare hand picking. The nutrient density of ground plants is too low even to bother collecting them. I mean the old ones. The modern fruits are all products of thousands/hundreds of years of selections. Roots could provide starches, but they needed to be cooked to be absorbed. And food cooking came a lot later. Of course, if you are hungry as hell you might as well eat berries and mushrooms. Also, light and small ones spend less energy, so, may be children could collected plants for eating. This is just speculation.

Any large animal on the other hand would feed an entire tribe for the day if not days. Did people eat all those things? Sure. Was it the main calorie source of theyr diet? Fuck no.

By the way, people didn’t evolve to eat meats. Eating meat evolved us. The fact that our saliva puts ah a jump on ah out digestion is because meat eating increased our brains and um shortened our digestive tract. Um you are a um archeologists but are you a pathologist? I um don’t think I heard that in your list of all you know. By the way, we are omnivores. The level N in the bones indicate we consume carnivores. I watched a video before this where the MD (medical doctor not mouse doctor) took the same facts and made sense of it. Of course if wait l next year, I’m sure your stance will change because that is what science likes to do. Like I say, nobody in the science world can agree. Even when the truth is right in front of you. I was wondering, how do you account for humans bones thinning, losing inches in height after agriculture arose. Clearly, their bodies regressed because of diets. How can you debunk another researchers data. You stand there saying "well his data was only done here or there". I think I know who you’re talking about and he was older and way more wiser. When you are wise, you don’t need to build yourself up by tearing others down. So UM why not worry about your speech and develop some wisdom. Wild lettuce is still an edible. The latex is used for pain relief. I think the reason people suggest bananas, berries and chickens is because it the closest that we can get to Paleo food. Paleo diet means to eat as close a you can to the neolithic period. The big thing is to not eat sugar or bread. The Paleo desserts you see in the grocery store was invented by food vendors. If you were as smart as you try to portray, you would have realized "paleo desserts" were an invention of a 21st greedy person. Okay um uh I’m done. Come back when you grow up.

Also, one thing I want to add and it seems it's something a lot of people don't know is that herbivores like cows (and also primates like gorillas) feed from bacteria protein and fatty acids. They don't get nutrients directly from plants. They eat plants/fiber to feed the bacteria in their gut, and then the bacteria multiples and the fermentation produces fatty acids and that's what they truly eat, a high fat and high protein diet from the bacteria, which is an amazing system very different from ours. And that's why they have big bellies, for fermentation. Humans don't work that way anymore, we have to get it from other animals.

Sometimes I have difficulty understanding everything the speakers say in videos on KZbin.

Therefore, I often rely on auto-generated subtitles (and definitely not auto-translation) to help me with any words that might escape me. One day, I was watching a video by Rhonda Patrick on metabolism, and she repeatedly pronounced the word "mitochondria." I was very surprised, and I must admit, a little amused, to see that the subtitles for that word were "my dick Andrea"! However, Rhonda Patrick is a woman, and we can easily imagine that in a presentation on mitochondria and metabolism, the chances of her talking about her penis, which she would call Andrea, are relatively low.🤣

She begins by referring to the paleo diet as a fad, but health professionals having been recommending a low carb diet since before she was born. Before pills were developed to fight diabetes the standard recommendation of doctors was a low carb diet. And many doctors still do prescribe a low carb diet for diabetes and other related conditions. This diet is even used to treat epilepsy. The patients brains rely much more on ketones than glucose for fuel. The whole discussion here is whether or not a high carbohydrate grain based diet is a fad relative to the millions of years preceding. And her very first argument that a lack of ability to synthesize vitamin C is evidence that humans require a predominantly plant based diet is utter nonsense. There are a great number of edible plants that fulfil the recommend daily vitamin C for less than 30 calories of carbs eg many berries, green plants and sweet peppers. Indeed, the Intuits have demonstrated that its possible to get enough vitamin C from the trace amounts in organs alone.
@libraryofpangea70184 ай бұрын
It is a fad. You can gain positive benifits both from a low carb diet and a whole foods plant based diet that is carb heavy, because the underlying reduction in caloric intake with a shift in macro nutrient intake. Low-carb diets Target blood sugar while low fat diets that are whole foods based Target cholesterol saturation which impacts insulin absorption on the receptor end. Low carb targets input, low-fat targets throughput. The link that's seen between them is a sharp reduction of total caloric intake and oftentimes an increase in exercise aka caloric expenditure. Likewise people on those diets compared to the standard American diet (S.A.D) are intaking less macronutrients while increasing their uptake of mineral nutrients. Which further improves overall health, as minerals are the primary substrate for the endogenous production of biochemical compounds. Both diets also have drawbacks. A Whole foods plant-based diet is harder to implement over a longer period of time and over a broader population both due to supply chain issues and issues with diet adherence for cultural reasons. Low carb diets are easier to implement for more people and more people will stay on them but come with adverse risks including greater risk of heart disease and kidney disease, More recently it's showing exacerbating potential on dementia as well. Just because something was popular for a long time by medical practitioners doesn't mean that they fully understand the science or that the science cannot change with new evidence. Most general practitioners are not operating as scientists they are operating as diagnosticians for their patients and will oftentimes have own personal philosophy on diet due to lack of more comprehensive scientific training on nutrition and diet. With that said most doctors are just happy if you move away from the standard American diet and towards more exercise and higher nutrient quality food. Finally you ignored 99% of what she's shown here which is disingenuous because you already had a pre-disposed opinion and you are not listening very well. I suggest watching the video again but put your biases to the side, look at broader research and not just what confirms what you already think.

She clearly described the Vikings and other Northern Europeans as milk drinkers and alluded to fermented milk products (and fermenting in general for a wide variety of cultures) . . .thus keeping cows (duh) through the winter, creatures who helped keep them warm in turn. Certainly in Winter inhabitants would kill and eat what they could, and in Summers the lingonberries (or their progenitors) were eaten in turn. Please provide the evidence that somehow humans 'ate' the path toward Mastodon extinction. That's a lot of poundage to chew through. Admittedly, all sides can and seem to cherry pick in presentations similar to this one. For me I found many of her modern day food comparisons absolutely hilarious (and compelling). Smart chick. I am sure she has moved on from debunking paleo, back into her natural realm of deep, thoughtful science. I appreciate her cavorting around in modern culture however - refreshing! AND refreshing for her to summarize that we need to be adaptive in our consumption strategies, and eat a wide variety of food stuffs for optimal health (no bandwagon for her).

"In a process unprecedented in its extent, Dr. Ben-Dor and his colleagues collected about 25 lines of evidence from about 400 scientific papers from different scientific disciplines, dealing with the focal question: Were stone-age humans specialized carnivores or were they generalist omnivores? Most evidence was found in research on current biology, namely genetics, metabolism, physiology and morphology.... "For instance, research on stable isotopes in the bones of prehistoric humans, as well as hunting practices unique to humans, show that humans specialized in hunting large and medium-sized animals with high fat content. Comparing humans to large social predators of today, all of whom hunt large animals and obtain more than 70% of their energy from animal sources, reinforced the conclusion that humans specialized in hunting large animals and were in fact hypercarnivores." phys.org/news/2021-04-humans-apex-predators-million-years.html

In regards to the thought that human GI tracts are closer to carnivorous - On average, carnivores have a GI tract length of 3-7 feet. Herbivores have a length of 10-12 times the size of their trunk. This easily put them above 10-15 feet in length and most times, more. Looking at humans, our GI tract is 30 feet long on average. Simple Google search to find this info. This instigates that we are natural herbivores, not carnivores. Not to fight on this, it's just the facts and I'd be sad if you went your life telling others that our GI tracts are that of a carnivore, when they factually are not.

I have a veggie garden in my little postage stamp bit of heaven. It's difficult to grow veggies and fruits. It takes time and constant monitoring and pulling up weeds, stopping insects, harvesting at the right time before another animal gets the benefit of all that work. In other words, it's hard work. Did our paleolithic ancestors live in environments that made it easy to get that grain and then, to grind it up in sufficient quantities even for one slice of bread. That's a lot of work even with a mill. Those water mills or stone mills that used animals walking in circles (or slaves) were a definite improvement to increase access.

I’m not really sure why this was promoted; she is an excellent speaker, but many things were blurred and skewed in this talk. I don’t believe the Paleo diet was intended to be just a meat diet, but balanced with meat and veg; relying on whole foods. I’m pretty sure that the 50yo Stone Age diet was meat centric, however. I do not believe that they are interchangeable. I’m not really sure why she believes ancient man wouldn’t have consumed animal muscle. I’m sure they didn’t waste anything, just to dine on organ meat. She breezed past the limited, Neolithic adaptations and disease caused by the western diet. She assumed that because starch was found on a 30k year old tool, that it had everything to do with meal prep so she could proudly claim that Paleo man ate starchy foods. Maybe they were making an ointment, refining seed oil, making a slurry to smear on something, or yeah, smashing tostones. The fossil record can’t tell you this. She rushed through the part where some regional LP adaptations exist and a limited portion of the human population have adapted to consume dairy. It would have been great to include a graphic highlighting those few regions, but that would have reinforced the fact that most adult humans should not consume dairy. It would also have been enlightening to state how long it would take for those adaptations to present permanently. She frequently inferred that the Paleo Diet assumes that humans are carnivores and not omnivores. Much time was repeatedly wasted on this erroneous concept. Yeah, humans have evolved to eat some plant matter; but, we are not cows; herbivore digestive tracts are totally different. If we were more herbivore, we would more resemble a gorilla (teeth, jaw, intestines, trunk). She later admits that humans couldn’t digest ancient lettuce, but then she assumes lettuce was domesticated solely for human consumption; failing to mention its most likely adaptations were the result of natural selection caused by the harvesting of lettuce seeds for oil. Humans would naturally prefer to pick the least thorny and spiny varieties… unless you were in Egypt, where cultivars would have been selected for other, sexier reasons. Finally, she goes on to discuss an example of an ideal Paleo diet. Oh, yeah duck and quail eggs are hard to find in markets; how dare anyone eat a Chinese chicken egg? Totally absurd. The really disturbing part was when she admits that wild fruit and vegetable varieties would offer limited substance to a human diet. Why then believe that ancient man didn’t primarily survive on meat or seafood/shellfish? I had to stop watching at this point, as the talk seemed to be agenda and opinion driven, rather than fact-based. I thought the science was clear; tools found indicate that ancient man would follow their animal food sources, likely harvesting available plant food along the way. These diets could have been very regional or more expansive, depending upon migratory patterns influenced by whatever cataclysmic event shaped their landscape. The video wasn’t a total waste of time, as I suddenly find myself motivated to try this Paleo Diet again. What is more clear, now, is that industrial processing is big business and likely attributing to disease. I can’t see this new trend of lab-grown, plant-based cuisine being any different. Whole foods with a preference for foods that my ancestors might have eaten seems pretty reasonable.

Based on the relative weight of these organ to the whole carcass, to get enough vitamin C to prevent scurvy on a carnivore diet you either have to eat several dozens of kg of meat per day or waste just as much. What's the drawback of eating veggies anyway

You should have known that by checking my calculations. And if you believe carnivore doesn't have scurvy you're blind, wilfully or not

seems to me this was basically a hit piece with the intention of just hating on the diet because its popular however mis understanding why diets like this, keto and carnivore are becoming more popular. The point is that we started with whole foods in there original forms and so should continue to eat them rather than refined carbohydrates that have no nutritional value and are put together from a hundred different chemicals which are causing increasing health problems amongst the general population. By doing so and removing the heavily processed food we should in return have more energy, not get as fat and be in better health conditions. All you've done is say why it doesn't match to what it is trying to reference but do not address the reason for why diets like this were created in the first place: FOR BETTER HEALTH

You are right, her presentation WAS intended as a blow to the Fad Diet known as PALEO. She is not here to describe the ideal human diet, this is not her purpose. (and in fact she is not a nutritionist) She understands well what past mammals ate based upon markers such as dental plaque . . . and thus found that grains and tubers were included in diets LONG ago (these are the 'horrible' carbohydrates which Paleo People argue today will cause us dietary harm - not so!). I am with you completely as to how we have strayed profoundly, permitting marketing schemes of mega food companies to 'choose' how we eat, instead of each of us taking time in the PRODUCE sections to choose fresh, in season, organic foods, or as close to it as we can. With occasional forays to organic raw aged cheeses, or fresh grass fed meats - but only if we exercise adequately to protect our arteries from the many downsides of high saturated fats and other challenges of eating mammal meat (inflammation). Ideally we live near an organic farm, or grow in our backyard, and have friends with chickens in the country. Etc. BUT we are many, food is pricey, we can't all 'live like that'. Sad fact. We MUST do our best, however, to protect our health. Eat wisely! Avoid inflammatory states, such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, cancers . . . good luck to us all.

If this is a debunk, it's the worst one I've ever seen! After absolutely throwing Dr. Cordain under the bus, she concludes with 3 pieces of dietary advice that are actually main tenants of The Paleo Diet! 1) Diversity is key - we eat too much wheat, corn and soy (all excluded from The Paleo Diet and replaced with a large variety of fruit and vegetables), 2) Eat fresh foods, in season (fresh fruit and vegetables are the base of The Paleo Diet), and 3) Eat whole foods - minimize added sugar and avoid separated (processed) foods. If she would just add 4) Eat fish and leaner, unprocessed meats, and 5) Avoid salt, she would actually be 100% recommending The Paleo Diet! None of her recommendations conflict in any way with Dr. Cordain's! I'm 50 lbs down, 3 years out on Dr. Cordain's Paleo Diet, haven't missed a bite, much less a meal, and recommend anyone interested visit The Paleo Diet website. (including Dr. Warinner)

Just stating, what different diets these people ate doesn't prove that these diets are all good for you. Apparently, people in Old Egypt were suffering from similar diseases as we are today, therefore it might not be helpful to follow their diet. Just because people were able to subsist on certain foods doesn't mean they are optimal for your health.
