Going Lower on the Food Chain - How Critical It Is for Our Survival

At the bottom of the food chain we find food sources that should form the foundation of human nutrition. In the history of man there are two nutritional epochs: pre-agricultural and post-agricultural. Our species ceased evolving at about the same time as the post-agricultural epoch began. Coincidence or not, the human animal has not evolved one iota since the beginning of the post-agricultural era. Since that genetic high-water point, we have begun a slow descent that has gathered incredible momentum since around 1950, when industrial chemical production and use peaked dramatically. The true superman existed 10,000 years ago, in the pre-agricultural era. We should try to learn what kinds of foods nourished this super ancestor of ours.
