Were not herbivores btw, were frugivores, herbivores have multiple stomachs & can assimilate cellulose.

Thanks Quince. I've read the China Study and I'm totally on board (obviously with an 811 bent). I'm just not really up on all the evolution-based theories. Thanks again. This helps. I'd love to repost that chart to my Facebook page. Where is it from?

OMG... he just said that our guts have shrunk over evolution (then makes joke about his fat ass), primitive mans gut was larger (as percent of body mass) than modern man... He says this at minute 4:30.

Then he says that cooked foods are easier to digest. Why do we not cook our fruit then? Why the hell do cooked dishes include a raw food garnish? What a waste... His brain might be large, but how much of it does he actually use?
