By the way, if fibre is the "natural cure for constipation"... does that mean all carnivores are constantly constipated What about the Inuit, or many Native American tribes, or the Masai, or many other traditional communities that rarely, if ever eat/ate fruit and veggies And who says that diet has to be "well balanced"... is it the same "experts" who say we need to eat a high-carb diet?
Look at the life span of those people you mentioned.....very much shorter than yours.
