What is the Healthiest Diet for the Human Animal?

[The Natural Food Hub]  [Living Unaturally-reaping the consequences]  [Natural fruit] [Natural Nuts] [Natural Meat] [Natural Seeds]

There have recently been several books written on the theme of the human diet in evolution. All attempts to figure out what we 'ought' to eat based on the lifeway and foods available to our ancestors come up against several difficulties. One is that we there are virtually no 'wild living' human animals left on earth. Another is that of those that are left, most are in harsh living conditions that are not typical of our original lifeway. These groups have been pushed to these marginal environments by invading agricultural and pastoral peoples, primarily urban industrial Westerners, and pastoralist. The diseases we introduced all but wiped out the wild living humans, as they had no natural resistance.
 
Very little authentic knowledge exists of which plants and animals and animals are edible, how to gather/catch/prepare them. What we can say is that people living in wooded Africa, and in subtropical and tropical forests of Asia and Southeast Asia do give us some insights into the 'natural' food of humankind.
 
It is dangerous to be categorical about the 'ideal' human diet based on the patterns of existing remnant hunter gatherers. Many of the richest ecosystems, such as the shoreline, are now virtually empty of the animals that once lived there, and entirely empty of the wild humans that lived off them.
 
It is expensive and difficult to access scientific papers unless you are a member of a scientific institution; and their jargon and style is usually too inaccessible for most of us to want to persevere with. However, references to papers that are quoted by various popular authors or web sites have been included. It is sometimes possible to draw two distinctly different conclusions from the same data presented in a particular paper!
 
As always, data can be incorrect, incomplete, or missing. Assumptions can be unstated or based on further assumptions, guesswork presented as fact. Conclusions can be drawn from data that the data itself doesn't support. Well, that's life, you will just have to read widely and draw your own conclusions, or tentative positions.

Found in coprolites from lower levels, dated to ca. 6000 - 5500 yr BP. Coprolites almost 2000 yrs older yielded Opuntia and Agave remains. Some grains of larger size may indicate selection process in harvesting. Proportion of Setaria in coprolites increases to 50% at around 3400 yr BP, thereafter declines following introduction of maize..." Full review available at
