Dig Your Teeth Into This: While Early Carnivorous Ancestors Thrived, Vegetarian Ancestors Went Extinct – Medical Daily
Medical Daily just concluded: “New research has emerged that has found that our ancestors’ dietary habits had a hand in keeping some alive and driving others extinct. Specifically, research has found that ancestors who were vegetarians died out while their meat-eating counterparts – our ancestors – thrived.”
I always recommend eating a well-balanced diet and I believe in the benefits of adding meat to our diets. What is most fascinating about these findings is that scientists were able to measure and quantify the amounts of different compounds and elements in fossilized teeth to determine the diets in early civilization through the use of lasers.
