[quote=Anonymous]It’s really just not that simple. Even if you took the car analogy of putting in gas, that gas has been specifically tailored to make the engine work at its most efficient. If you put high octane gas in a car that is supposed to take regular, it doesn’t work as well. If you put diesel in a car designed for regular gas you’re looking at a major repair bill. And those are just machines. Our bodies are complex systems of living organisms, each that take “fuel” in different ways and may be tied to different circadian rhythms, etc. If you consumed all of your calories in the form of Crisco, you’d be looking at a coronary bypass. If you consume all of your calories in the form of beer, you have different issues. If you don’t get enough Vitamin C, you get scurvy. Etc. Different bodies have evolved differently over thousands of years based on their local diets. It’s only recently that large scale, long distance food distribution has become viable. [/quote]
