I think since you've been on this list for months, then surely you've seen the
references that findings of researchers (like Dr. Loren Cordain) support the
Neanderthin position.

In fact, Drs. Eades have been working closely with some of those researchers on
some new studies.

The only possible point of disagreeing with the premise of this group, with NO
evidence or references to substantiate this disagreement, is to reassure
yourself about something (presumably that your non-paleo eating is somehow still
healthy, although clearly I have no way of knowing those specifics).
