This is just plain categorically wrong. All primates DO NOT eat high carb diets. Its not both just an over generalization because each species of primate have different diets (as well as regional diets) but many of them will eat nuts, meat, berries and other things.

See dogma1138's child post to this parent as well as his other responses to cies other posts in this thread.

No offense cies but your posts here reek of soccer-mom-esque health blog level of basic research and espousing of ideas as facts.

Eating some "nuts, meat" does not make it HFLC. Do you know what consitutes HCLF? Well name me one type of primate that does not eat HCLF in the wild and you may correct me. But so far you have not.

No offense taken. We're just discussing here. Please provide evidence for your claim there is a not-HCLF (thus HFLC) type of ape in some location. I will fix my beliefs with proper evidence (I just could not find it).

What? You said generally this is what is true; generally, it is not true. That is all I'm saying. You're generalization is wrong on a factual level. Continuing, dogma1138 has done plenty to discuss differences between human and primate digestion and primate diets.

I'm not interested in reading back-alley nutritionist blogs to discover what HCLF is (that is basically all that came up on google, Vegan or LDS sites). You want to link to a research paper discussing it I'm happy to hear about it.
