    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    No, it doesn't have any evidence supporting it. At least not any that you've shown us. As I, and Ancient, have repeatedly tried to point out, there are far too many variables, availability of grain being one, between HG and agricultural societies for anyone to point to a specific cause. Your...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    I don't know how you manage to type so much while saying so little. Or just repeating what you said earlier. Are you going to address any of the points brought up after that quote? BTW, nothing proven scientifically is THE reason to bash something. Paragraphs, please!

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    I mostly answered your post in my edit. My apologies for not being clear on my original statement. I didn't mean to infer that anyone past 45 will live for a while. "Elite survivors" was supposed to mean that they got past all the rigors earlier in a HG lifestyle, so it makes sense that the...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    I actually really don't give a shit about that. I was more referring to infant mortality rate and what can be inferred from there. But, we can pursue this. The graph does say modal, but the summary article says mean: The data doesn't look highly skewed besides Sweden's woman-on-icy-pavement...

    Yeah, that graph pretty much sums up what I'm saying. Look at the earlier parts of the graph and infer from there.

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    Is that directed towards me? Because I didn't say that, I'm just agreeing with it. The data says HGs that live past 45 have a ~26 year life expectancy after that. Makes sense to me. There's a few more connect the dots for that to actually make sense. But I'm hoping Master actually engages...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    I read your link, the blog post, and skimmed the graphs on the actual study. I see no mention of agricultural societies and their data. What I'm trying to get at is that I'm curious what percentage of hunter-gatherers lived to each of those age breakpoints, and what percentage of...

    Or you could be misinterpreting data, which I think you are. Got any data on life expectancy AFTER grains were introduced, including periods before modern medicine?

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    No idea who you're arguing with here. No one is saying you should eat fat free diets. You're citing cases of carb abuse as proof that any carbs are bad. Abuse is bad. It's that simple. Maybe you'll get it this time. Probably not. And yes, 25% of your diet as carbs sounds perfectly...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    Of course the hardasses live longer. There are SOOOO many differences between hunter-gatherer and agricultural societies(especially modern ones) that it's outright silly to even suggest eating grain was the culprit. How about agricultural society allowed the better storage of food through...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    You were probably conditioning your body to expect the food at certain times. I know I get hungry around lunch and dinner times, regardless of what I ate the meal before. Doesn't make me tired though. Maybe you need more sleep.

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    You seem a bit over obsessed with insulin spikes. Is that really all you have against carbohydrates? If I can handle the spikes, and I've honestly never noticed a difference in how I feel based on what I eat(beside being full), why are insulin spikes bad? Yes, doing it far too often and too...

    Paleo 101: How and why you should eat like a Caveman

    We haven't been in outer space for hundreds of thousands of years until the last ~5 decades! Should we stop doing that? It's really myopic to use arguments like that. Insulin spikes maybe your only shred of scientific evidence. Inflammation of the gut I'm betting is related to lactose...

    Is Zillow at least a good way to find homes for sale, regardless of value? I really like their map feature for searching homes based on proximity.

    I'm going to be looking for a house soon too. Similar to McCheese, this will be my first. Hoping I could have a few questions answered because the process seems daunting. Where I live(Ithaca, NY), from poking around on Zillow, it looks like the type of house I would possibly want range from...

    Fair enough. I didn't really pay attention to the results post frankish migration. Was just being a nitpicking history nerd.

    What European country do you profile as?

    That's France the geographical region, not France the country. Or in other words, France/Gaul. France as a country didn't really exist until the Franks moved in.

    Cavemen didn't have access to tomatoes or broccoli, try again! Nor the pepper. And I suspect salt might have been in short supply too. Gotta go 100% authentic, bro.

    Actually, a dagger offhand is not the best. I'm assuming you're referring to WW barbs. 1.2/1.3 MH and a 1.5 OH do not mesh up that well for tornado break points, leaving you with some wasted IAS. 1.2 and 1.4 match up very well, but not perfectly. Though, I still say a EF OH with a cold SoJ...
