you should take more fish oils, then you may be able to follow exactly what

there is no reason to follow the worst aspects of paleo life. well, you
could if u wanted, but I'm not.

they certainly did, since they followed quite elaborate methods of leaching
out the cyanides for example.

The same is true of cynaides.
its a pity you simply make things up as you go along, without bothering to
do any research. from what i remember reading, 10mg of phytic acid will
block almost the entire absorption of zinc from an average meal. cyanides
accumulate and can cause chronic toxicity.

nonpaleo.
i dont see you wandering around the tundra. i guess because you dont want to
live like paleo man did, but to get the best diet on paleo principles, which
would be food in abundant times. not in starvation times.
