IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU SHOULD BE EATING FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN OUR CLOSEST RELATIVES, THE CHIMPANZEES.

T hese creatures are probably the best living example of what our diet looked - photo 10

T hese creatures are probably the best living example of what our diet looked like before modern agriculture... and what it should look more like today. Chimpanzees eat plants and fruit all day, but eat meat only about nine days out of the year. For a long time, we humans followed suit. For one hundred thousand years, in fact, humans evolved with a diet that was primarily the same as that of our chimpanzee brethren: low-fat and plant-based, with infrequent forays into meat. After all, our bodies were not designed to capture prey, and our tools for hunting and fishing were primitive.

These eating habits werent just a primitive phenomenon. Even as recently as two hundred years ago, Americans seldom ate meat. In the early 1800s, meat was simply too expensive and too impractical for the average household. Only the rich ate meat on a regular basis, which is why gout, caused by the breakdown of protein, was called the rich mans disease. Most Americans would only eat meat on special occasions such as Easter and weddings.

Historically, plants werent just for eating. They were also for healing. The first healing doctors relied on herbs and substances derived from natural sources as an important cure for diseases. Ancient doctors found ways to cure ailments by testing the plants available to them, and through trial and error treatments. In most cultures, the women who cared for the health of their families were in charge of gathering and doling out plants. This wealth of knowledge was then passed down through the generations orally.
