Great, I'd like to start today. What do I eat? Where do I get it? I already try to do this, but with all this conflicting information out there how am I supposed to know what to do exactly.
Too many articles bemoan the state of nutrition, in the United States in particular, but provide no actionable guidance to the reader.
prepare in variety of ways. hot or cold. add spices for taste. sometimes meat for protein and iron. walnuts for omega 3 fatty acids which brain needs but body can't produce. eat healthy snacks like washed pre-peeled carrots, etc.
I'd argue this is well-solved, well-known and already well and often communicated.
for example, there are books on this topic. many. anyone can read today.
There's got to be some place we got this in the ancestral environment that wasn't animal milk. Our nearest animal sibling primates don't drink animal milk, and presumably have the same requirement for them that we do. So, where do they get them? Consumption of bone marrow, perhaps?
Calcium rich foods include leafy greans, beans and fish and other seafood.
Lots of cultures around didn't have/don't have significant milk/dairy intake, those of us who can eat lactose into adulthood are mutants.

Calcium from several vegetables.
One of the explanations I've seen for why Europeans are white is to enhance this effect, because Europe gets comparatively less sunlight than other regions in which civilization initially spread, but was warm enough due to the gulf stream to support agriculture, which produces a diet lower in vitamin D. So between the comparatively lower sunlight and agriculture, Europeans needed to evolve to be able to generate more vitamin D from sunlight, which losing pigmentation helps with.
Vitamins A and D are present in the oils and livers of cold-water fishes and mammals. Vitamin C is obtained through sources such as caribou liver, kelp, whale skin, and seal brain; because these foods are typically eaten raw or frozen, the vitamin C they contain, which would be destroyed by cooking, is instead preserved.
But that doesn't fit into a modern Western diet.
Hopefully, the general trend is to move closer, though.
The general trend has always been to move toward the more profitable. Scientific research has never been a part of the decision making process.
So too will eating a good balance of meat, vegetables, legumes, and fruit (except iodine).
By "food" he means "food your great-grandmother would recognise as such". A good rule of thumb is to focus on foods that don't have an ingredients label. Anything that is green is also a good bet – leafy plants are incredibly complex chemical cocktails and the human body evolved in tandem with it.
So, no sushi, no fresh fruits except the few which were available around here circa 1900s, no African food, no Asian food, etc.

Yes. By all means, eat food which could contain who knows what.

This only applies to foods found in the Rift Valley in Africa.
1. Eat high alkaline foods that are organic, non gmo and make sure your diet is 80% alkaline, 20% acidic foods.
2. Fast regularly to clean out toxins
3. Make sure you drink water that isn't completely fluoridated.
4. Get daily exercise for a minimum of 1 hour per day
5. Limit processed and animal based foods
6. Don't consume any dairy products

It's amazing how much pseudoscience you managed to cram into this short list. Fasting to eliminate "toxins" and avoiding fluoridated water are based on pseudoscience or conspiracy theories as well.
Have you read any work by Paul Bragg before?
Do you know the dangers of fluoride and where it comes from?
You're probably the same person who thinks New World Order, the CFR, Builderberg Group, Central Bankers, Aliens and the rest of it is all made up tin hat nonsense.
Keep watching tv and let me know how your body is 20 years from now dude.
