For millions of years, our ancestors followed all-meat diets, taking advantage of the dense, nutrient-filled protein sources as they fought to survive. Those proteins allowed human brains to evolve in earnest, while their digestive systems broke down the most essential nutrients and vitamins animal products provide. To survive ancient perils they needed to be quick on their feet, energized, and alert. In fact, our entire digestive system evolved for the consumption of animal products, and it's only recently in history that plant-only diets have become viable.

There's a reason why so many people find themselves failing to stick to all or mostly plant-based diets - and it doesn't have anything to do with willpower or motivation. It's an uphill battle from the beginning. Rather than forcing yourself to follow yet another unsatisfying, complicated diet, take the time to really listen to your body. Simplify your diet, your health, and your life by going back to the ancestral basics.
