One of my favorite angles in the whole low carb saga is how doctors who worked with Indigenous Peoples all over the world created dramatic differences in their health: by taking them off the SAD. It has ancestral echoes from their consideration of what each population used to eat.

There was an unforgettable line in one of Taube's books where he quoted a Pacific Islander explaining their own local discovery, "Steamboat broke down for long time. Everyone eat fish and coconut. We all get better."
