Product Description
For nearly two million years, humans and our hominid ancestors were eating in the hunter/gatherer style of foraging for a wide variety of healthy fruits and vegetables and then hunting and scavenging for large game.

and before we ate meat we only ate fruit, greens, and a very i mean extremely small amount of fat and protein. we didnt evolve from being meat eaters. we had to start eating meat because we got lazy. if your not lazy you dont have to eat meat. peoples priorities are all out of wack these days.

It was an ok read. Not a very practical diet to follow but it was interesting to read.

It was interesting, but I’m not sure it would be a practical way of eating.

Being a doctor, I’m inundated with requests from pharmaceutical companies to promote this or give away that and I constantly am influenced to keep the patients coming back (especially if they have a good insurance program). But I know that we don’t have a health care system, we have a sick care system that aims at keeping people sick and thus dependent on the medical profession. It’s a bittersweet emotion for me as a doctor that benefits from the system and also someone who has hypochondriac relatives.
That’s why it’s refreshing to read a perspective that opposes my “doctor a day keeps the apples away,” mentality. Morse’s Evolution Diet makes it clear how to live a natural and allergy-free life and keep the DOCTORS away. It’s not easy for a lot of people-those on the inject McDonalds in mouth then take pill to alleviate symptoms from too much junk food diet–but it’s worth it. Once you get on the natural diet (the way you were designed to eat), you will feel so good, you won’t want to give it up even for something that used to taste good like French Fries.
This is the second latest edition here and is chalk full of useful and entertaining info (look at the The Evolution Diet: All-Natural and Allergy Free for more on natural and allergy free foods). I will recommend it to all of my patients as an alternative to the ubiquitous pharmaceutical.
