This is a good vid to watch for those confused about the facts on supposed "Paleo" diets. Her main "lessons" toward the end are spot on and she does a great job of picking apart some of the realities of our modern diets (good and bad) vs supposed Paleo diets people think they are following which are based more on marketing than fact.
I think she stressed the meat focus of some "Paleo" diets too much and didn't focus on humans being omnivores (vs carnivores) and her early comments ramble a tad off focus, but her info later regarding the fact no one is actually eating what our paleolithic ancestors ate, Paleo diet is a marketing term vs reality, and her take home info is dead on: eat fresh foods where possible, eat a variety of foods, eat whole foods. Full stop
I have some issues with her comments regarding human physiology (she's an archaeologist, not a human physiologist and it shows in some spots) and thought it was going to turn into a pro vegetarian lecture (It didn't) but her essential take home lessons and info on the fact Paleo eating is more marketing and fad than fact, is good info:
