According to WAPF, the healthy cultures ranged between 15-20% protein and 30-80% fat (I believe they are excluding the Bantu, who probably had more like 10-15% fat in the non-milk tribes). A person eating on the low-animal side of WAPF's ranges would be getting 15% protein, 30% fat, and 55% carbs, which would make fat very much higher than carbs.

In it the fat % was 50% or more. I should have added that of course it has to be the " good " fat not the vegie fat of the SAD diet. The one that comes to mind would be the Inuit where their calories came mostly from fat. Also the Masai. Right now I don't remember where I saw it, but I have seen a chart with a breakdown of % protein, carb, fat of the different cultures. In many if not most, the fat is higher than the carbs.

The balance of fat calories is in the form of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. Carol K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 Chris- I believe you're forgetting insects, which are often extremely fatty. >(I believe they are excluding the Bantu, who probably had more like >10-15% fat in the non-milk tribes). - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Hi Carol, I have a request to ask of you. When you are responding to a post would you mind changing the subject line so that it reflects the topic? That way I can tell if I want to read the post. Right now I have to open your messages to actually find out what you are responding too. Thanks!
