Paleo diet plan

It is interesting that many Neanderthal remains are found with rodeo type injuries. It is supposed that their method of hunting involved actual jumping on their prey to bring it down.

Since I consider them to be my ancestors , all I can say is "ride em ,cowboy."

What are rodeo type injuries?

example would be bull riding injuries

Yes, but what are bull riding injuries? Like being gored?

A study of nearly 2,000 professional rodeo events between 1981 and 2005 found that half of all injuries occurred during bull riding. Knee and shoulder injuries are most common, according to Downey, but "most alarming" are the head injuries. Concussions account for nearly 9 percent of all bull riding injuries, he notes.

Other typical rodeo injuries include finger amputations during calf roping, sprains to the knee, shoulder or ankle, and chronic problems that develop from such injuries. Riders are also at risk of being gored or stomped after dismounting or being thrown from an animal.

Because of the power and speed of the average bareback horse, bareback riders suffer a tremendous amount of strain on their riding arm.

Hyper-extended elbows, torn biceps, and separated shoulders are common bareback rider injuries due to the strain put on the arm.

Because of the extreme riding position of bareback riders, neck injuries are also quite common.
Bareback riders can also suffer injuries to their lower back, spinal cord, and tailbone area due to the jarring effect of a bucking bareback horse.

Ew, finger amputations.

So have I.

I think I will go out and spear a deer tonight and eat it raw

It's better to cook it.  Humans have been eating cooked meat for a very long time; long enough to have biologically adapted to it, and raw meat can harbour all kinds of nasty parasites.

I understand the concept of trying to eat as closely as possible to what our bodies were built to process, however, if you say that we have biologically adapted to cooked meat, then it would figure that there are many other things we would have adapted to also.

Cooked food became a major part of the human diet about 250,000 years ago, and we've adapted to a soft, cooked, pre-processed diet to the point that our jaws have shrunk and some of us no longer grow wisdom teeth, but grain, dairy, legumes and oil seeds only began to appear in the human diet in significant quantities with the advent of agriculture, about 10,000 years ago.  Genetic adaptations to these new foods haven't yet been fully distributed through human populations, and the adaptations are concentrated in the populations with the longest histories of exposure to these foods and for whom the ability to tolerate the foods had a high selective advantage.

It's interesting that people who are lactose intolerant use soy products, but how long have they been around for?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soybean

Soy has been cultivated in eastern Asia for the past 5,000-10,000 years, and although new foods don't necessarily pose problems, soy is rather problematic.  Like many beans, it's quite toxic and indigestible, and it requires extensive processing to become edible.  Traditionally, this was achieved by soaking the beans, cooking them for long periods and fermenting them, but modern products like soy milk and meat substitutes are made from soy products that have been refined and chemically modified using modern industrial methods.  Despite this processing, there are still concerns over the safety of soy products, mostly due to high levels of phytoestrogens in the raw beans and processed products.

I should also mention that more than 90% of soybean products (at least here in the US) are GMO's, and mostly so that Monsanto can sell stronger and stronger herbicides.

OT mini-bitch: vegan (soy-based afaik) bacon is awful, I wouldn't feed it to a dog! 

[Ergo Proxy]

So are soy hot dogs...

The only soy-based meat-substitutes I like are the Boca Burgers. Otherwise I just stick with Tofu. I don't eat a lot of it in general because the brands I buy are expensive as hell (I take special care to make sure they are non-GMO, certified organic, fair trade, etc.).

[Eclair]

I wouldn't eat any other hotdog but a soy hotdog. If I was in a hotdog mood, which is most likely once a year.

I'd also choose a soy sausage over a normal one. But they are a treat rather than a regular addition. The ones we have here are nice;

That is funny. Vegans aren't even bitches - they are mini bitches.
