So you want to justify what you eat on your ideas of what the ancestral diet looked like? Okay.

The ancestral diet was quite varied, but do you want to know the one thing all those diets had in common? Fiber. Lots more fiber than the modern crappy diet.

And you know what the ancestral diet eaters didn't have? Colorectal cancer.
