De Oerdis is bewezen gezonder dan ons huidige eetpatroon. Het Voedingscentrum zal om gaan, verwacht Karin Hoenderdos, dietiste. De Schijf van vijf maakt plaats voor de Schijf van drie. Over een dikke maand komt er een Oerdis kookboek uit.

Twee groepen consumenten aten twee weken lang 'gewoon' voedsel en oerdis, eten zoals onze prehistorische voorouders dat aten. Cholesterol, suiker en bloeddruk schoten omlaag. De Oerdis leert ons wat het gezonde eten van de toekomst is.

Terry Wahls, M.D., presenting at the Ancestral Health Symposium 2012 (AHS12).

Minding My Mitochondria

Abstract:
I have progressive Multiple Sclerosis and was confined to a tilt recline wheelchair. A professor of medicine, I studied the basic science literature about progressive brain diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and Huntington's, the nutritional requirements of the brain and the Paleo Diet.

Using what I learned, I created a modified Paleo Diet to maximize the nutrition for my mitochondria, my cells and my brain. Just 9 months after this new way of eating, I was able to bicycle 18 miles. I tell my personal story as I teach the biology of what our cells need to thrive, why a structured Paleo Diet provides the most nutrition per calorie of any diets and how to eat for maximal health of our mitochondria, our cells and our brains and bodies. My clinical trial, using the Paleo Diet, has remarkably positive results.

(Visit: http://www.uctv.tv/) Tracing the evolution of the human diet from our earliest ancestors can lead to a better understanding of human adaptation in the past. It may also offer clues to the origin of many health problems we currently face, such as obesity and chronic disease. This fascinating series of talks focuses on the changing diets of our ancestors and what role these dietary transitions played in the evolution of humans. Here Steven Leigh (Univ of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) discusses Diets and Microbes in Primates, followed by Peter Ungar (Univ of Arkansas) on Australopith Diets, and Alison S. Brooks (George Washington Univ) and Margaret J. Schoeninger (UC San Diego) on Neanderthal Diets.
