Slanker’s Grass-Fed Meats: The Real Diet of Man is Very Simple
There seems to be thousands of diets. Atkins, South Beach, Glycemic Impact, Phase, Suzzane Somers, Low Carb, Low Fat, Low Sodium, High Fiber, eDiets, Paleo, Mediterranean, Maker’s, Grapefruit, Fat Flush, Vegetarian, Blood Type, Lactose-Free, Heart Smart, Healthy Soy, Weight Watchers, Mayo Clinic, Perricone, and Slim Fast are just a few of the popular ones we’ve all heard about. Yet in spite of all the money that’s been raked in by the promoters of these many different diets – in actual fact there is only one diet. It’s the diet of man before his invention of grain farming and other agricultural pursuits. Some people call this the Paleo diet, Hunter Gatherer diet, or the Caveman diet.
Because we are living in an inflexible, Big Business-driven society you’ll rarely hear about the true diet of man because it’s too simple, leaves no room for supplements, and ignores grain, grain-based foods, grain-fed livestock products, concocted foods, sugar and refined high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates, and the drinking of alcoholic beverages. The true diet of man leaves the marketers of supplements, vitamins, fad diets, drugs, conventional medical solutions (drugs and operations), and nearly all foods and drinks little room to make money off their advice and products. It even cuts out the educational system and various government entities because they are structured to eternalize Big Business and the grain-based food system. Consequently our food system is way out of whack and virtually all of the food products sold in the typical American grocery stores (Wholefoods/Wild Oats is typical), fast food joints, and convenient stores have no place in the true diet of man.
Diet:Â Simple and Basic
The true diet of man is incredibly simple. It does not involve calorie counting, fat measuring, and portion control. There is no such thing as different foods for young people, pregnant women, middle aged people, and old people. There’s absolutely no variation for blood type, sex, skin color, hair color, tall people, short people, hard working people, couch potatoes, or one’s location. And the diet is the same for healthy people as it is for people burdened with chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, lupus, asthma, allergies, obesity, mental disorders, and on and on.
Anthropologists tell us that about 60% of early man’s food was meat – and it was only grass-fed meat (meat from animals never fed grain). Meat was followed by vegetables (for instance spinach, kale, collards, beet greens, romaine lettuce, etc. followed by broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, etc.). Then, since they were seasonal, in very minor amounts there were some nuts and tart fruits (such as tomatoes, squash, berries, small apples, and the tiny wild fruits such as persimmons and wild plums we sometimes find when hiking in the woods). Sure, at times man also lucked out and had some honey.
As for dairy, well modern man is the only beast on earth that figures he needs milk past weaning. In fact, dairy is one of man’s most recent agricultural inventions. So all of this nonsense about drinking milk for strong bones and teeth is mythology. It really doesn’t matter if milk is raw or not. It’s flat out unnecessary post weaning. To make matters worse, nearly all diary products available today are from grain-fed cows and goats.
Many so-called health experts are telling people to eat fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Most of the veggies I won’t dispute, but many of today’s highly developed sweet fruits are sugar shots. Potatoes are a perfect example of sugar and refined high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates. Sugar and refined high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates can power drive fungal infestations that can produce mycotoxin overloads. The eating of grain disrupts cell function, breaks down the immune system, and feeds fungi if one has a fungal infestation. Damaged immune systems will open the door to fungal infestations. So grains, of whatever kind, and sugar and refined high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates are taboo.
Also, the idea that a little wine, or beer, or booze of any kind is good for you is also a myth. For starters alcohol is a mycotoxin and secondly it leaches DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) out of the brain. DHA, the most abundant fat in the brain, is a major requirement for proper brain function.
Get Exactly 100% of Your Nutrient Needs
As you can see the diet of man includes nothing much beyond grass-fed meats, veggies (greens and the immature flowers of vegetative plants) and in a limited way some nuts and tart fruits. Excluded foods are grains, grain-based foods, grain-fed livestock products, potatoes (except some sweet potatoes and yams), sugar and refined high glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates, even some fruits, dairy products, and nearly all concocted foods especially those laced with sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and preservatives such as partially hydrogenated oils. All modern grocery stores, fast food joints, and convenient stores stock mostly excluded foods! This is why so many people are suffering from chronic disease. The food is literally killing them.
The true diet of man is all that anyone requires for optimal health. It’s so fundamental that nutritional scientists, those who have studied it, tell us that it provides exactly 100% of man’s nutrient needs in perfect balance. How could it not? It’s what man ate for several million years before he started farming and changing his foods. Those early agricultural pursuits commenced only 10,000 years ago in a couple of regions and then slowly spread throughout the world. In no way could man’s body adapt to such an abrupt change in his food in just 10,000 years. Consequently when one eats like the prehistoric Hunter Gatherer his diet will be so perfect he won’t even want to take a vitamin pill or an Omega-3 supplement for fear of overdosing. Yes, you can even overdose on Omega-3 fatty acids!
As you can see, the story regarding the proper diet for you, your family members, or any other person on Earth can be told in a few paragraphs. And if people ate only the true diet of man the incidences of chronic disease would probably plunge 90% or more. That would devastate the medical community, the drug companies, and the marketers of fad diet books, supplements, and vitamins. The true diet of man is so simple the caveman always got it right and he never even thought about it. So, you should be able to do it too. Right?
