Throughout history, when man has turned away from the
traditional "prehistoric" diet that evolution designed
him to eat to an agrarian (grain-based) one, a serious
delcine in health has occurred. We think you Throughwill find
the following information about these two kinds of diets
startling as well as tascinating.
Most experts agree that game-hunting was the prima-
ry means of sustenance for our ancestors 700,000 years
ago. From that time until the beginnings of agriculture
(about 8,000 to 10,000 years ago), man lived on a diet
composed predominantly of meat of one sort or another.
In fact scientists estimate that from 60 to 90 percent ot
the calories these early people consumed were in the
form of large and small game animals, birds, eggs, rep-

over some 7,000 centuries shaped and molded our phys-

berries, seeds, and nutsl Only within the last 100 cen-
turies have we reversed the order to become mainly car-
