Paleolithic vs. modern diets - slected pathophysiological implications
European Journal of Nutrition, 2000The nutritional patterns of Paleolithic humans influenced genetic evolution during the time segment within which defining characteristics of contemporary humans were selected. Our genome can have changed little since the beginnings of agriculture, so, genetically, humans remain Stone Agers--adapted for a Paleolithic dietary regimen.

Erratum: Paleolithic Diet, Evolution, and Carcinogens
Science, 1988The last sentence of the fourth paragraph of Devra Lee Davis' letter "Paleolithic diet, evolution, and carcinogens" (18 Dec., p. 1663) contained errors. It should have read, "Moreover, the range of early diets was extensive, from protein-rich diets of far northern peoples to the plant-dependent diets of the Kalahari hunters and gatherers."

Nutrition Bulletin, 2000SummarySome anthropologists have suggested that humans are genetically determined to eat diets quite different from those of today. Very little human evolution has occurred in the past 15,000 years. However, diets have changed dramatically and in parallel with a shift in disease patterns from infectious diseases and diseases associated with nutrient ...

Diet of upper paleolithic modern humans: Evidence from microwear texture analysis
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2014ABSTRACTThis article presents the results of the occlusal molar microwear texture analysis of 32 adult Upper Paleolithic modern humans from a total of 21 European sites dating to marine isotope stages 3 and 2. The occlusal molar microwear textures of these specimens were analyzed with the aim of examining the effects of the climatic, as well as the ...

Paleolithic Diet and Exercise Improve Metabolic and Cardiovascular Risk Factors
The FASEB Journal, 2017For nearly 6 million years, the ability to store dietary energy for later times has served humans well during food scarce periods. In our current world of over‐consumption; overweight and obesity are linked to more deaths worldwide than underweight, with 1.9 billion adults classified as overweight and of these,

Paleolithic Diet and the Division of Labor in Mediterranean Eurasia
2009Hunter-gatherers of the recent era vary in many aspects of culture, yet they display great uniformity in their tendency to divide labor along the lines of gender and age. We argue on the basis of zooarchaeological, technological, and demographic evidence that the complementary economic roles of men and women so typical of ethnographically docu- mented ...

Deconstructing the Paleolithic Diet: Components that Reduce Cardiovascular Disease Risk
Current Nutrition Reports, 2014Studies demonstrate that a Paleolithic-type diet reduces risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Deconstruction of the Paleolithic diet shows that ancestral hominids followed a dietary pattern that consisted of raw-whole foods containing efficacious levels of mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fibre ...

Abstract 11965: Cardiovascular Risk Factor Reduction Through a Paleolithic Diet
Circulation, 2015Introduction: The paleolithic diet consists of grass-fed pasture-raised meats, seafood, vegetables, and also includes fruits, seeds, nuts and eggs. This diet has been shown to contribute to weight loss and mimics the diet our hunter-gatherer ancestors may have consumed.
