I think that a paleodiet should be varied. H/g people usually use hundreds
of different species for food and medicine. The Anchell plan is very
limited in this aspect, so I think it can not be regarded as a paleodiet,
and should be discussed in another forum. I am a bit surprised that you
have considered it at all.

Personally I think it is very hard to eat only what one can be sure has
been food for our ancestors, so instead I avoid the ones that I am
convinced was not eaten. So in your garden I would only pick cabbage
and squash. The nightshades do not belong in my kitchen.
