RE: The Bad Science Behind the Paleo Diet

in #health7 years ago

Sometimes man creates insightful products based upon all the wrong assumptions. It is as Nietzche quipped, as you stare at the abyss, it also stares at you. As man changed his environment, so too has he been changed by the environment. Man needs to approach his environment in relation to himself and not as if he exists outside it. It seems like the Paleo people consider man to be an immutable being in a constantly changing environment; is it hubris or ignorance?

Sort:  

Being right for all the wrong reasons is still being right- it's just not likely to help you be right in other ways.

If I had to point to anything and call it the worst part of our civilization, it would have to be our conviction that we're separate from nature, even some sort of platonic form rather than a messy animal that mucks up its home. Paleo is just a well outlined example of it.
