In my opinion this article really leaps to some conclusions based on almost
nothing. I don't see any research that proves the problems described are
caused by eating meat. Do they eat any fat at all? Do they eat fruits and
vegetables? Are they really examples of paleo eaters? I bet the animals are
really lean - isn't that a problem? Rabbit starvation, and all that. And
didn't I just read in another article that someone sent out that being
nomadic is very stressful and shortens life
