| Okay, well you seem to have a good grasp of what it is already without having read the big studies on it.
I'd argue a natural human diet is around 60-80% fruit and veg, with the rest being made up of animal product and fish. I say animal product on purpose, because most people don't eat organ meats, even though liver is the best part to eat, health wise. There should be little to no grain input, and nothing refined, like sugar or white flour.
Also, we should be eating as much as possible raw. We are the only creature on the entire planet that cooks it's food, which should show you how unnatural it is. I know it would be dangerous to eat much meat raw, but I'm thinking about veg(which most people boil to nothing and drain the water away, along with it most of the vitamens and minerals), fish and eggs (I wouldn't try eating battery farmed rubbish raw mind, only organic and free range). And even with meat, people should try and keep it as rare as they can bare.
Oh, and raw milk (unpasteurised and unhomogenised) too. Although milk isn't entirely neccesary if the rest of your diet is good, we are afterall the only species that drink milk after we finish nursing. And thats another thing, it's a worrying trend that children arn't nursed and when they are not long enough.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
