So it's easy for us. Just wait for annother examination of human milk
with lipid resolution. Or consult the USDA people.

Thats *your* thoughts.
Nuts are an alternative, and they have advantages.
Didn't you read my conclusion?

It was: nuts and brains/marrow are historically correct solutions
to the w-3 fat problem.
Non-historic, modern a
lternatives were flax-oil or sardines (seafood).

Now, what is *your* personal alternative, practically?
Brains or fish or flax or walnuts or else?

Kirt, that are not tidbids.

I try to go through all the essential and crucial points of a nutrition
to *validate* the drawbacks, advantages, dangers of a diet.
I think, that anyone proposing a certain kind of nutrition should have that
theroetical background when discussing it.
There is no "a priori" and no put down or make "lessor".
They *all* advantages and disadvantages on the one or other topic and
I want to know about them.

I do my own experimenting of course.
For _me_ :
I'm eating my paleoseeds-and-herbs for several years now and still do some modifications,
many inspired by information i gathered (or hunted) here.
For me it works perfect, I'm feeling fine and full of energy.
I have few problems to get my food items, they are reasonable cheap and
available in top quality. I don't do counting of calories and can follow my whishes.
I weigh 70kg at 1.84 meters.
I'm still struggling with coffee (always black).
I was told (by a test) that i was allergic to hazel and one meat i forgot.
Some modifications cause certain changes.
For example, as soon as the fiber part in my diet goes down
i'm going to miss a feeling of satisfaction in my belly.
