This may  not be your point, Todd, but these people Price studied remained
"robustly  healthy" eating "post-paleo foods" only in comparison to those on a
Standard  American Diet.  Their health certainly didn't *improve* by adding
non-paleo foods in adulthood


The downfall of the SAD is processed ( manufactured) foods such as cereals,
confections, bread, pastry, all unnatural grain products, dairy products, soft
 drinks and processed meats such as cold cuts, sausage, hot dogs, ham, bacon
etc. Even if humans ate UNPROCESSED foods which were Paleo and non-Paleo
their  health would be greatly improved. The secret is to eat what is provided for
us  by nature and stop trying to be so smart. I doubt if the human race as a
whole  is ready yet for that type of philosophy.  JerrySteg
