I don't believe this last part has been established. Where is the evidence
that the closer a population is to their hunter gatherer roots, the more
powerful alcohol's negative impact on their well being?
I know that native americans don't handle alcohol well, but they are no less
distant from their paleolithic ancestors than caucasians. Native americans
have relied heavily on non-paleo corn (maize) and other grains for a long
time.
