Yeah thanks for showing these clips, the rabbit hole does go pretty far, especially when you look into the diet and the evolution of neurochemistry in humans.

What's your opinion on diet? I've been following the optimal diet recommended by the guy here, Loren Lockman, for nearly 3 years now, not 100% but close. I really think he's absolutely right, a raw mono fruit diet it is our natural, original diet. The fact that our closest primate relatives are all fruitarian is really proof of this that's difficult to argue against.
Yeah I pretty much agree. It's sort of more difficult in modern society unless you live in tropical areas where these types of fruits are abundantly available without having to rely on the global supply chain. But either way it's the optimal diet and very likely what made us human in the jungles.
I don't follow it 100% either but fruit is my main food source; though I think it's important to consider any gut changes humans have in consequence to eating cooked food and other veggies for eons. Perhaps one needs to slowly transition using various methods like fasting so you can get back into our natural source of living which is fundamental. You ever heard of Tony Wright? If not I recommend checking him out, he goes into the deep end showing how the insanity of humanity is related to our leaving of the forest and away from our main food source.
It doesn't surprise me at all to hear that fruit is also your main food source! I'm just watching an interview with Tony Wright now, incredible. Everything he's saying is exactly what I've felt and the conclusions I've come to by following this diet.
It's been so obvious to me for a long time that our home as a species is in the tropics, and the evolution of our advanced cognitive capabilities was fuelled by fruit, and a symbiosis between us and fruiting plants. When you follow a strict fruit diet you feel like a superhuman, mentally and physically. It is just so obvious that this relationship would have supercharged the development of early humans. He's so right too about how moving away from this ideal diet has led to a devolution in humanity in general, and a kind of madness and inner emotional chaos.
I personally could never go back to eating cooked food regularly, to me it literally feels the same as drinking alcohol every day, it's that negative an effect. I do usually eat one small cooked vegan meal every day, and everything else mono fruit meals. Even that I feel is not good for me, but it is bearable, and I do it just because of cravings caused by stress, work etc.
If I had to eat three cooked meals a day though I literally think I would have a total breakdown, I just could not physiologically or mentally do it any more.
Being 100% raw really is close to enlightenment.
I've always loved fruit and was lucky to have access to plentiful tropical fruits living in Brazil. And yeah, after starting to understand this subject it's crazy how it's all connected and it does explain some things that have troubled me about humanity. It all begins with with what we put into our bodies.
Yeah I'm not at that level yet either. I do have cravings for cooked food and like you I only eat one cooked meal a day at most. It's a lot easier to be consistent with diet when you live in the tropics and have access such a food source. English breakfast and American for that matter, reflect the climate(temperate/cold) and that's why it's more common to eat a big cooked meal then, which I could never do.
I'm sure it must be amazing eating a fruit diet and living in the tropics, the quality of the fruit must be so good. The fruit we get here in the West has already travelled a long way and lost a lot of its taste, and hence a lot of the magic.
