Read Primal Mind, Primal Body. It is a very good book. It discusses how food can have an effect on your mind as well as your body.
Of course they are reporting me.... This is the problem with scientific research worship and complete lack of critical thinking outside of reading a study abstract and conclusion. There is a study conclusion that can be misinterpreted or weaponized for LITERALLY any nutritional position, be it high fiber, low fiber, high fat, low fat, etc etc etc. We've been completely inundated with bad research and corruption from the food industry trying to sell their products, and people will cherry pick their confirmation bias to no end.
This place is full of plant based ideologues that think we should eat 100g a fiber a day based on controversial blue zone study interpretations, or garbage epidemiology, with absolutely 0 understanding of actual pathophysiological mechanisms or knowledge of evolutionary dietary history. They haven't read about any other culture like the Nords, Swiss, Gaelics, Eskimos, Indians, Polynesians, Maori, or any other African or Middle Eastern tribe that got 70-90% of their calories from animal foods with minimal fiber eaten through seasonal restrictions and lack of preservation methods, and thrived might I add.
The reason our brain grew so quickly is pretty obvious. We were apex carnivores that busted skulls and bones open and ate brains high in phospholipid forms of EPA and DHA, and marrow rich in growth factors and saturated fat. We also ate a lot of fish and red ruminant animal meat high in those same omega 3 fatty acids, along with a metric fuckton of fat soluble vitamins essential for cell differentiation, hormone production, and general growth. Then there are the nutrigenomic methylation factors that influenced our epigenetic expression and allowed for the better propagation of our species through more consistent DNA replication.
Here are a bunch of articles, books, and studies to satisfy subreddit rules so I don't get banned or my comments be deleted.
