Yes that Cordain mention confirms some other very interesting data I previously encountered. There've been distinctly erroneous claims in the past that hunter-gatherer tribes in the Neolithic were all supposedly super-healthy in all respects, yet there was that definitive study by Mann which showed that the Masai had atherosclerotic tendencies. And there's been a lot of other evidence re a wide variety of side-effects such as kidney-stones etc. occurring in people on long-term ketogenic diets, so I'm not surprised that pemmican-consumption isn't too healthy.
Plus, there's the fact that atherosclerosis is a condition heavily linked to levels of heat-created toxins formed by cooking, such as AGEs/advanced glycation end products etc.
Anyway, thanks very much for the link.
Geoff
