It's relevant because they were mostly disease free on that diet. We switched our diet on a dime and now we're sick.

- w1ntermute 14y agoI have no idea what you're talking about. Disease is less prevalent now than it has ever been in history. People live longer and better lives than ever before.
- argonaut 14y agoNot that I agree with shanev, but this is misleading. If anything, modern health has improved in spite of our (shitty) diets.
- CoffeeDregs 14y ago>Disease is less prevalent now than it has ever been in history. While I fault the parent for lack of nuance, I fault you for the same. "Disease" is a complicated thing which has many dimensions. What you're pointing out is that the low-hanging fruit are sorted and that's great! Parent was saying [edit: I assume] that chronic diseases were less frequent and we have epidemiological evidence that was the case.
