A healthy ancestral diet to me is overall defined simply by the lack of processing of a food (in its natural state devoid of chemicals and additives, ie real food). Grains may well have been eaten millions of years ago but they're a world apart from the processed grains and flours of today, so probably not a good idea. With meat products - if animals are fed a poor diet, not good; wild game and fish would be much better. Even the fruit of today is probably so much sweeter and obviously plentiful during all seasons so should probably eaten in moderation. Are nuts good? Yeah, but you shouldn't be eating handfuls and snacking on them all day long because back then you'd have to crack each nut individually, in otherwords don't overeat them! I also believe in intermittent fasting which I think our ancient ancestors would naturally have had to do.

I don't think there is a easy solution here to what works best and what food we should prioritise for our own health. We are facing a severe lack of proper study in this region to make any wise decisions. In part because of outside interference be it food industry or other people interfering with studies. It is also really difficult to determine what works for any given human and the fact our bodies can react wildly different depending from person to person. And naturally with any diet the only answer we can get from it is does this sustain me and my healthy body weight with no clue to what else it could be doing to our bodies internally. Particularly on the topic of gut bacteria which are very important for us since our food plays a major role in determining what bacteria will inhabit there. They help digest food and play an important role in our well-being. Since research suggests our gut bacteria are tied to our probability of things like diabetes, obesity, depression, and colon cancer. All of these things combined lead me to believe that we don't know enough and likely won't know enough any time soon to have a satisfied answer to what would work the best.

Not to mention processed seed oils which are byproducts of manufacturing marketed to us as "healthy" alternatives to natural fats.

The diet of Australian aborigines pre-European settlement has been documented. It was omnivorous, with the exact composition depending on location. There was a "subsistence" component based on what the women could gather, including nuts, seeds, tubers, and seasonal fruit, plus a irregular contribution from the hunters ie lean meat or fish. Unfortunately the descendants of these hunter/gatherers have suffered badly from a transition to the western, agriculture-based diet.

Human tend to see just what they aim to so, depending on which trend diet do we enter, we would look for positive information about it. That's one of the reasons for which so many people have such contradictory opinions. I have tried many of them, even being already healthy and fit, and I haven't faced dramatic differences to get to a conclusion. I'm still healthy and fit while eating variable (almost avoiding processed food) and doing regular and no suffering exercise.

Thank you, Dr. Ungar, for this excellent presentation!! It was indeed very meaningful to me and I have learned a lot from it.

I come away from this talk with the conclusion that Peter Ungar was trying to convey was that with the differing environment and availabilities of food over our evolution there is no one set of foods that we ate regularly. Looking at the teeth as a guide to what each specimen that passed his desk was eating, his findings were not that we evolved to eat an exact diet. It was that what we were eating evolved as we did. He can tell you what a particular specimen that he has studied ate, but he is saying that man is still evolving and what we eat is varied because we are so versatile, it's not the definitive list of foods we have evolved to eat.

Exactly. If your family history lived in certain areas like say alaska then you didn't have access to fruit and vegetables really so you mostly ate meat. I think if people are wanting to look into diets thinking theirs is causing issues they should do an ancestory test and try mimicking diets from that area in terms of "well they didnt have this food commonly" so you try and cut that one out and work from there.

What we can eat and what we are made to eat to flourish are two different things.

He said it (though not intentionally)... our human ancestors ate meat, and lots of it. Australopithecus sites are laden with stone tools and animal bones bearing cut marks. That is not the case with their contemporary, Paranthropus. Regarding that fork in the evolution, one lead to carnivory, and the other to herbivory, as dominate foods. There are no stone tools associated with Paranthropus, but tools and animal bones are abundant with Australopithecine sites. I think it odd he missed such an important point. If our ancestors were so opportunistic, why the split? Our ancestors went for meat. That was the core reason for the split.

Ungar entirely overlooks nutrition. We know that the nutrient content of food has severely decreased over time, including over the past century. The nutrient intake of parents and grandparents, on average, is higher than it is now for the younger generation. Weston A. Price long ago, through analysis of foods, determined that it was nutrient content that was the major contribution to jaw development. It obviously wasn't about chewing tough foods because many of the health populations with well-developed jaws did not have a habit of chewing tough foods. The main factor that changed over time when a modern diet was introduced was nutrition. By the way, Price first came to his observations in his dental practice in the US. he started his career in the late 1800s and by the early 1900s saw a dramatic change. what was beginning to alter the nutrient content of food was soil depletion, grain-fed animals, etc. It wasn't only jaw development that was effected for he also noticed the same pattern in bone development and neurocognitive development. There is no plausible way the change in chewing practices could have had such wide-ranging impact.

Glutenous foods are not only much more readily available and easily accessible , and therefore used much more frequently and in greater quantity than it once was, but as farming has changed the make up of our foods through the years, to make it hardier , and more abundant, the amount of gluten in a particular plant has increased, this is especially true with wheat .( our most common source of gluten).

It's closer the kind of meat humans ate in the past, including higher nutrient-density. There are several farmers that do that kind of thing in the local area here. They sell their meat at local farmers' markets, have drop-off sites, or deliver them to your home. What is available depends on where one lives. The same applies to organic and sustainably grown plant foods, as most people are buying chemical-drenched fruits and vegetables that are grown on farms that cause pollution and erosion. The challenge is partly availability, although price can be a problem as well. Eating higher quality foods can be more expensive. Then again, some people have no problem spending money on fast food and eatng out.

@@redpill2491 Humans do not have a single meat eating trait.

there are several things that I don't like here. First he calls the paleo advocates " gurus", though there are indeed some sketchy fellas there are also many very serious doctors that advise to eat paleo like DrTerry Whals for example who put her multiple sclerosis into remission. Then he says we ate cereals long time ago... how on earth were ice age men ( that lasted thousands of years) were able to even remotely access the quantity of grains we have access to today ?? also Paleo advocates DO NOT say the paleo diet is the real Paleolithic diet , critics really need to stop with that strawman, they say it mimics the way we ate in terms of nature and in terms of macronutrient ratio.

Good talk. Some commentators are missing the point, which is that it is natural for us to eat any of the foods available to us, including those excluded by fad diets.

Humans are not natural.

The optimal diet is an omnivore diet, or a diet plant and meat based.

@JasonBuckman

Primarily meat-based, supplemented with plant-based upon natural seasonal availability.

It's pretty obvious what we CAN eat, more interesting is, what is healthy for us? For exemple he listed french fries on he's list of things we can eat. That kind of ruind it all and left really nothing to learn from his talk.

Yeah yeah yeah but what is best? Optimol? Superior? With no adverse effects right accross the ball? Animals.

Morality fits in perfectly when you include: The biology and anatomy of the humam body is herbivorious Humans do not have a single meat eating trait Humans do not need meat to be healthy So with all this combined, the question becomes, Why eat animals when we dont need to?

@@anarchy7741 The only thing I can say is that you've been mislead on every point. I lived with the Inuit for 2 years on Baffin Island and saw first hand what stone-aged people ate for health, and it was virtually nothing but animals. They were happy, healthy and in tune with nature. And I've heard the twisted illogic of the plant-based agenda 1,000 times, but it's still completely and utterly wrong on every single point. Take a break from the plant-based propaganda and see what real scientists are saying, especially real anthropologists. Look outside of the agenda and you will find the truth. Eating animals is normal, essential, moral, a biological imperative. Look up what former vegans say about why they went back to eating meat, why it's good for human health and good the planet. There's no sense in me telling you, you have to find out for yourself and genuinely seek the truth.

And 500 year old inuit mummies have been discovered with clogged arteries..Not exactly healthy. Your little 2 year peak into thier lifestyle doesn't mean anything. The inuit HAVE TO eat meat.
