This book is so amazing and I think it is very helpful. The quality of the science in this book is spotty at best. It might be helpful to know that 60% of our brains consist of fat, or that all of the body fat we store is saturated fat. It would seem to be important that most of our energy comes from fat, since carbohydrates cannot be stored by the body. most professional researchers of Paleolithic diets believe that early people's energy came primarily from fat, rather than from plants. Leafy plants contain sparse energy in comparison with fats, and require more energy to obtain them. Animals were plentiful everywhere on the planet, while wild plants grew variably, and seasonally at best. Green plants were the least efficient source of energy for early humans. I strongly recommend this book。
