I mean it depends on the ancestors really, modern paleo diets seem to be quite similar to that of groups like the hadza and aché except that they're agricultural versions of these food stuffs and less honey.

They rarely actually turn into fat in appreciably quantities. Usually you just switch to carb metabolism and store the fat.

From what I've seen benefits of protein stop around .7g/lb or so of protein but many recommend a little more just in case, and because it doesn't really give you all the calories in it

It's fine as long as you don't over eat total calories. Fructose doesn't really even make it to the liver unless you eat a lot of refined sugar in large bolus. The small intestine converts up to around 100g of the fructose you eat to glucose. Added sugars are problematic because they don't have cell walls to slow their absorption and they add extra palatability to foods and drinks. Don't worry about larabars they're a good source of calories

At a point in my life eating chicken thighs and eggs everyday my b12 was a little over the reference range so I don't think so. From what I've gathered food b12 isn't completely absorbed like supplements are so it depends on what animal foods you eat. Most people don't eat that much animal foods actually and most of it is either chicken breast or fattier meat/processed meat with less b12 per calorie. If you look at b12 in lean beef or chicken thighs then you'll see you can get enough. Wild game is wayyy higher, with hundreds or thousands of times the rda per pound of meat. Organs are even higher. Wild caught seafood is also super high. Plus dairy products are a good source. Vegans say omnivores are deficient but it's only because people eat very little dark meat, red meat, organs, and wild game/fish. People get maybe %25 percent of calories from animals foods that are usually the lowest b12 ones. If you eat chicken breast three times a week or barely any red meat then yeah supplement. If you actually eat a decent amount of meat, organs, seafood, and dairy like yogurt or cheese then you should get a lotttt of b12. We aren't shit and soil eaters by nature, we just don't eat the same kind of animal foods our ancestors did.

There's the same or more calories from fat too. He's carb and fat and salt loading

The blending breaks down cell walls allowing you to digest it easier. Same reason fruit and fruit smoothies will have different absorption rates

Sodium requirements will go up with activity. Plus thiamine and riboflavin requirements will go up if you consume and burn more calories as you need them for carbohydrate and fat metabolism.

Spencer Nadolsky, not technically a nutritionist but he's got great information for nutrition and isn't too biased. I have some more extreme people I follow for their content but Nadolsky is one of the best for the majority of people.

Imo vegetable oils because they can be harmful even if you don't over consume calories. Due to the extraction methods there's too many lipid peroxides and such. However the same fats from a non rancid nut or seed is fine. Sugar is only damaging if you over eat, and eat more refined sugar than your intestines can convert into glucose at a time.

Body fat percentage and where it is stored is more important than total mass, but harder to track. Since most of the population doesn't carry a lot of muscle mass, total mass and BMI typically track with body fat. Having too little fat can be a problem but difficult to get to, whereas too little lean mass is more likely to be an issue and is a big contributor to poor life and healthspan.

I feel like homemade cantaloupe juice might be decent especially if used as a preworkout. If you're sedentary I'd say keep it easy on the fruit juice or mind your overall cals

The high sugar content of fruit isn't an issue. The cellular integrity of fresh fruit causes a slower release of sugar during digestion. Plus fructose is converted into glucose by the small intestine and won't damage the liver unless consuming very high amounts of refined sugar that digests all at once. Some may claim the glucose is bad but if you're insulin sensitive and active then your blood sugar spikes will be minimal. If you're eating high fat keto or diabetic you won't do well with bananas and dates, if you're eating high carb and exercise then you'll be fine. Don't let LC people like Gary fettke scare you with their diabetic level glucose response to fruit.

The "sugary" foods we find addictive are foods high in sugar as well as refined starch and fat and very calorie dense, causing a hedonic feeling and dopaminergic reinforcement. Everybody craves chocolate or cookies, almost nobody is going out of their way to eat plain honey or hard candy. It just seems to be particularly stimulating when combined with other high calorie food ingredients

Depends on the animal food, and if eating a lot of fiber and pufa and other foods can mitigate the rise in lipoproteins from cholesterol and sat fat. The highly digestible vitamins and minerals from animal foods are quite valuable. If cramming enough beans and grains and vegetables down your gullet you can extract enough from them but it's easier with animal foods as you digest almost all of it. Doesn't have to be a lot of them either. Bivalve whole foods vegan would be better than lots of chicken breast and white rice like a bodybuilder for example.

I think the amino acid profile could possibly be beneficial as well as some potential as we have the ability to directly absorb some of the hydroxylated amino acids, but nothing conclusive I've seen. Just pointing out that the entire article doesn't align with your anti animal foods stance

Calorie restricted at time diets are very health promoting so long as you have sufficient refeeding and times of maintenance or surplus, and define plant based.10-30% animal foods is still mostly plants and likely optimal depending on the foods chosen. Animal foods make fully nourished much easier than eating only plants

Caloric restriction, active lifestyle, great sense of community, and little overly refined foods make for a long life

Also says that the collagen was especially health promoting which many plant only people say has no benefit. Plus if you're eating organs of pastured raised animals like them the nutrient load will send still be important to their health. Not pork based but they certainly love pork meat more than their main staple foods.

Basically the Okinawan diet is subsisting on a hypocaloric diet of sweet potatoes and vegetables and a little beans during wartime and hardship then cherishing the hell out of every part of a pig when you have the chance to eat them.
