We have lost the ability to think for ourselves when food is concerned. We\\u2019re the only animal on the planet that hires nutritionists and dieticians to tell us how to eat. But we\\u2019re the sickest species on the planet. Something\\u2019s wrong. And Dr. Bill Schindler wants to right that wrong. On today\'s episode, Bill, professor of anthropology and archaeology at Washington College, and the director of the Eastern Shore Food Lab, walks us through 3+ million years of diet history to help us get a handle on what our ancestors ate. As we learn about the tools they used and which foods provided the most nutrients, we gain insights into how we can eat and live better today.

Bill describes what main foods were part of the primitive diet, how the diet shifted over time, how the dietary needs of the past compare to ours today, how our ancestors extracted the most nutrients from the raw food they hunted or gathered, and the importance of getting back in touch with our food.\\xa0
