Episode notes

Various tribes like the hard saw and the chamois consume a high percentage of calories from carbohydrates, mainly sourced from plant foods. In contrast, Americans consume a lower percentage of calories from carbohydrates. Research by Herman Ponce compared the diet composition and cholesterol levels of these tribes with Americans, highlighting the difference in carbohydrate intake and its source between these populations.

Episode #282. What do you really need to know about omega-3s and omega-6s? What does evolution have to do with our diet? And does eating one egg burrito mean you’re not vegan?

Discover the answers to these questions and more in this episode, where I sit down with Drew Harrisberg to discuss all things omegas, evolution, and ethics.
