I have all kinds of questions about NeanderThin that would no
doubt best be answered by just reading the darn book. (I'm
ordering it tomorrow).

However, I have two questions that relate to how NeanderThin
is actually practiced, and they are probably best answered
by asking you guys.

When I read posts by people who describe their typical
daily diets, I am struck by the relatively low amounts
of fruits and vegetables... it looks like some NeanderThinners
are on something fairly close to the Atkins diet. I have read
The Paleolithic Prescription, and the consumption of great
quantities of high-fibre veggies is really emphasized. So are
you Atkins-esque paleodieters eating that way because it
is in line with Audette's book, or for some other reason?

My second question relates to domesticated meat sources.
I gather that many of you eat beef and stuff right from the
supermarket, since it is not always easy or cost-effective
to get wild game-type sources. Well, in the quantities you
are eating meat, are you not concerned about modern additives
and chemicals in the meat? Dean E. observed that this is
a real problem with dairy, but I thought that the situation
might be at least as bad with meat.

Thanks,
Toby
