Even the low-end estimate of 250,000 years is believed to be plenty of time
for adaptation by all the scientists in the field of Paleolithic nutrition,
as well as Ray Audette and others. Eating some raw foods certainly provides
benefits, such as the vitamin C one can derive from certain raw organs, but
even the traditional Inuit ate cooked as well as raw foods. Can you name a
single hunter-gatherer people which never eats cooked food?
