I wonder if they controlled for store-bought food vs meat-fed. First thing that comes to mind is that most dogs are fed processed, mostly vegetable-based food these days.
Maybe. But people got a taste of a different world now, and learned that better is possible. Won't be easy to push them back into 'Can't do anything about China stealing your country piece by piece' pen now.
Ill bet it amounts to 'inappropriate remarks' and that not stating exactly what it is, instead using the 'sexual harassment' doublespeak is just a FUD tool to attempt to sabotage the Pirate Party.
Dna life evolved out of rna life.
If you're interested in stuff like that, google 'rna world'. It is likely that dna-based life evolved out of rna-based life and outcompeted it.
Most plants require significant genetic editing (in form of 10k+ years of selective breeding), processing (milling, soaking, cooking) and adding secondary plant products just for taste (spices) to be palatable. Not to mention need for aditional fat and emulgators.
Most of plants, even after 10k years of selective breeding, are toxic for us in some way. Even simple green leafy vegetables are full of oxalic acid.
On top of that, modern agriculture approach of artificial fertilizing, and high nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium levels in dirt that is starved of other nutrients through constant yearly use, results in changes in plants where they contain higher % of simple carbs, while not having normal levels of other micronutrients.
No hunter-gatherer group in the last 2 million years of evolution has exceeded 50% of caloric intake being plant-based, and only some small groups near ecuator have managed to get close to 50%.
During the most recent part of our evolution, part that has made us human, we have evolved to eat predominantly meat diet. Agriculture sidestepped that, and coopted evolutional remnants of a time 50-60 million years ago, when our ancestors were 5kg proto-monkey frugivores.
High-carb plant-based diets are undoing of evolution. Human brains, and general human stature, have been getting smaller during the last 20k years, accelerating in the last 10k.
He's not the one spreading FUD here. You and the rest of the 'zomg world ends in 10 years' gang are.
Undo the 10 millenia of evil.
