Right, and SINCE then, some people have evolved to metabolically handle an
agriculturist diet better than a high meat/fat diet.  (agriculturist meaning
mostly low-purine plant foods, doesn't have to include grains, beans or other
newer foods) These people are well-adapted to a plant-based diet, and do not
do well on a high purine/high cholesterol diet. We can't ignore this
metabolic subset. Genetics have changed since paleo times, fortunately.
