"We were designed to live in the environment we populated by eating local, properly grown and raised, seasonal foods.

And running around naked as the seasons permit.

Simple as that..."

The Out of Africa theory is currently the prevailing view among research scientists.  That has been substantially supported by the recent field of mitochondrial DNA studies.   (You and I and everyone else on the planet have African ancestors.)  That view is held by the authors of two books that I have - "The Vitamin D Cure" by James Dowd, MD and "The Power of Vitamin D" by Sarfaz Azidi MD and both point out the subsequent difficulties that everyone in the northern climes have creating vitamin D from sunshine.  Azidi has a practice in Los Angeles and is also an associate professor at UCLA and he says the vast majority of people he tests (he tests all his patients) are vitamin D deficient.  They both point out that sun provides very little vitamin D production for most people, and dark skinned people living in the Northern Hemisphere in particular have an even higher incidence of vitamin D deficiency because of their built in sun blockers.  Both books say that we in the Northern Hemisphere have significant vitamin D deficiencies and have the diseases and conditions associated with that shortage.  They both recommend significant supplementation with vitamin D3.

We did not evolve on local flora and fauna.  I'll stick to my guns.  The healthiest natural human diet found in real time on the planet is - the Inuit Diet.  Their cardiovascular and cancer rates are far lower than any other population and their eating and medical statistics have been documented - before they and their offspring turned to the typical Western diets.   To prove that it is the diet that is beneficial a couple of researches ate the Inuit way for three years in their home country in Europe while under medical monitoring - during the 1920s, and were found to be healthy living that life style.

What I did learn during my nudist experiences is that - there is no such thing as a perfect body.  In fact if I were running things there wouldn't be a "dress down" Friday, there would be a no clothing Friday where you couldn't be at your job or anywhere in public with a stitch of clothing on.  If we could do that it would blow the Madison Avenue/Hollywood air-brushed pictures and associated propaganda about bodies clearly out of the water.  Some folks think that nudity is immoral.  They've got it backwards.

Carbohydrates kill!  So does clothing.  lol
