People in traditional societies do not eat diets that are loaded with saturated fat. If they do (the Masai come to mind) they also have an extremely active lifestyle so that they remain very thin and they still die young. I think I have said it before in this forum, but if you want to know what healthy eating is, you can look at what you think some ideal prehistoric person would have eaten millennia ago, or you can look at what centenarians eat right now. They certainly do not eat lots of meat and dairy. They do eat their veggies.
. people don't say sugar is bad or fat but TYPES of sugar and the quanties thereof
as for centenarians ...who like people on Sardinia who eat meat, fish and dairy and plenty of it or Owkinowa who eat fish and pork fat?
masai and eskomos have crude living conditions that's why they die young not because of diet.
