Looks like a great group! I really believe our diet is the most natural. Look at evolution, we adapted to be able to cope with a few bad products of farming in times of crisis: doesn't make it natural, nor healthy, and certainly not necessary! Vegetarian for life, vegan from 16, raw for a few months. Each step AWAY from conventional diets I have stepped, I have stepped further into health!

Yep, Sitchen is crap. He gets everything wrong.

BTW I don't need my Left in the Dark if anyone's interested.

@Zoe: I think Robert or Ste mentioned Sitchen at some point in the past (in one of the discussions that has disappeared in the depths of the net), I think the verdict was "crap". Correct me if I'm wrong, Robert...

I have. Good reading, but wild guesses mostly. I hope Tony gets some proper funding and serious help to produce something deeper. They say in the book it's just a draft.

It's part of my dream to become a specialist in evolutionary neuroscience. Our brains essentially go through millions of years of evolution from the moment we are conceived till the moment they attain 'human' status. We all still have the brain of of our reptilian and mammalian ancestors within our own human brains.

During the Pleistocene era we evolved emotional thinking, and a sense of our own existence, apart from the rest of our environment, a.k.a. consciousness. The cerebral cortex is the most recent development, some consider this to be the place where our 'ego' resides. Others say it's been with us for much longer and is in the amygdala because it houses memory processing and emotional reaction.

Awesome group, thanks!

Peace,

Guava

I'm very interested in this topic regarding human evolution, adaptation, and the matter of thriving. Our own bodies are the ultimate test and result for each of us: what does your body reveal, how does it react(either quickly or over time), in relation with what you consume and how your body processes or deals with it? And, being mindful of different people, different results, even given(we'll say) vital and athletic bodies (not encumbered by 'detritus', such as with obviously unhealthy people).
