Okay, but didn't the indigenous tribes of this country add stored roots, dried berries, cattail tubers/milkweed bulbs and flours made from acorns/hickory/wild walnuts/chestnuts into their wild game stews. Why the zero carb? The word squash in one of the native tongues literally translates to "stored".

Wally,
I wish there was a way to force all seven billion people to eat the following diet sourced from grassfed (or truly wild) meat:
1. Very low to zero nonfiber carbs
2. From 80-120 grams of protein per day
3. Remaining calories in the form of healthy fats
4. High fiber, low carbohydrate fruit in season only
While there may be some subpopulations who might not do well, I am fairly confident that on the whole disease would plummet precipitously.
Have you tried this diet? Really tried it?
