You can't, but that's not the "Neanderthin rule." Neanderthin
only excludes those *ingredients* that would not have been in the
foods that paleo people ate. It doesn't exclude the extraction
and refining of those ingredients. Again, perhaps a case could
be made that a proper paleo diet should be made more restrictive
in this way.
Other refined/extracted/isolated ingredients that have generally
been regarded as "approved" are olive oil, coconut oil, rendered
animal tallow, and so on. You can't refine any of these with a
sharp stick.
