I often think, many illnesses and woes could be overcome if we all tried to revert to this way of eating. I reckon we'd all do very well (better than we are now) if we only ate what we would naturally be able to either forage for or kill and prepare in the wild (if you are so inclined).

I don't think you'd even need to consider things like calorie intake or blood-sugar levels if we did - it's what we're designed to do after all. As ever, nature has provided everything we need. The problems arise when we decide to package it all up and charge for it.

What were your other conclusions when writing it up? Do you think you could have easily done longer?

I felt really healthy on it, after a few days. It was january, so the diet was quite repetative. It was mostly mussles, wild parnsip, preforaged hazelnuts, and some other greens. I did eat bulrushes but they were fiddly for the effort. There was no grains. I let myself have a spoonful fo butter a day to add to cooking, they would of been not fat at otherwise. I got a squirrel on the last day. Hunted for snails and woodlice and failed to find any. i could of gone on for longer. I keep meaning to do it again soon.
