@mikebrigandi: NEW study shows sugar not meat was central for brain evolution! #Science

Octopod :

The carnivore bros are going to be so mad

Xavi 🪽 :

YOU NEED CARBS! YOUR BRAIN RUNS ON GLUCOSE!!!

Dylan L :

Carnivore community rn

f :

might explain why sugar is more addictive than most things. the brain probably still craves it

SrotoGargees :

.. mitochondria rules

Ellie 🇨🇦 :

Vegans have been telling yall this for decades 🤦

connyG :

oh the meat lovers gonna be fuming

geebee1261 :

Thank you!! Meat and dairy has no role in the human diet!!!

Indigo Health🪻 :

I know you’re vegan, so is this supposed to be proof that meat was not important for human evolution? What about the extreme abundance of DHA in the brain/retina? What about the large presence of ancient Homo sapiens in the African rift valley where marine life is extremely common? Or the fact that migration out of Africa occurred significantly along coastlines?

Kinetic Lightning War :

This is pure cope. Grain diets ruined our health. We were healthier and more robust as hunter gatherers

￴ ￴￴￴￴￴ ￴￴ :

The whole meat thing never made sense anyway if it was meat other omnivores or carnivores would also have large brains

Efrain Morales :

What about ketones. The brain works on ketones too

h :

makes sense meat is typically very hard to get in nature

tneelen :

How did they get fruits ? Not whole earth was tropical 😂😂

Rina :

whaaaaat youre telling me our brains primary energy source is needed for it to growwww?????

moses livingstone :

How would you know what and how much of what they ate two million years ago. All these new studies are you guys just making it up as you go.

𝕓𝕚𝕣𝕕𝕚𝕖 :

It also makes more sense because the brain runs on glucose

runinfang :

As a biologist, this sounds very wrong. Humans can synthesize glucose from PROTEIN. It's called gluconeogenesis, and the LESS carbs you consume the more efficient this process become thereby feeding you're brain continuesly. You cant take modern pregnant women and claim gluconeogenesis is inefficient, because it isn't she just needs to eat EVEN more meat. I am not a carnivore advocate, I used to be vegan for a long time. I just like my science to be ACCURATE. Of course our brains increased when he had more reliable sources of food and were starving less.

mike laury :

ppl will see this and think that he means eating more sugar will grow your brain 😂✌️

ari :

not surprising, were frugivores

ZZZ ZZZ :

Humans back then were opportunists, they had to be to survive. We have evolved enough, in this advanced world we are now living in, there is absolutely no reason what so ever to be eating the dead bodies of animals.

Im not diabetic im evolving
