Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Ping. Not sure if you’re interested.

I don’t see where any of these people are catching and killing their own meat... Or is that a little too primitive?

[Ellendra]

I’ve lost count of the number of times some friend or stranger has lectured me about how my medical problems are my own fault, then proceeded with the “You Just Have To . . . “ dieting advice. “You just have to avoid gluten”, “You just have to avoid meat”, “You just have to eat organic”, “You just have to avoid processed foods”, “You just have to stop drinking cola”.

I’ve tried most of those at some point. The best ones had no effect whatsoever. At least one of them made me sicker than I’ve ever been (it seems I have trouble absorbing vegetable protein, going vegetarian was a bad idea).

For those it works for: great! Good for you! Just don’t expect it to work the same for everyone. We are as different on the inside as we are on the outside.

Lifespan of Paleolithic man?

[GOPJ]

Ummm, we were hunter / gathers, right?

Knowing how much energy it takes to get an animal down - and how little to send women out to find berries - I suspect the "gathers" did a lot of the contributions. Dandelion greens, anyone?

[Mr. Jeeves]

But like any diet that rejects whole food groups, it’s always best to proceed with caution — and consult a doctor.

Of course, because the food group they reject is bread. And neither Archer Daniels Midland nor their privately owned politicians can allow any talk to the effect that grains are actually animal food, and not conducive to good digestion in humans. They would rather invent whole new categories of disease than admit it.

“I would say we have about six pounds of ground beef right now,” she says.

I wonder if anyone has found fossilized meat grinders from the Paleolithic era?????

[buffyt]

Makes sense, I guess, IF you believe in evolution! I don’t.

[redhead]

The book that started it all. I have it, and it is worth every minute you spend reading it.

[redhead]

Audette: “Paleo is what you can find to eat if you are naked and armed with nothing but a sharp stick.” LOL! The book is well-written and enjoyable.

Meat

Yeah

Sounds like the 20-somethings are rebelling against their hippie vegan/vegetarian parents.

And here’s their web site, if you want to go to one of their meetings:
