I can't help thinking that it's an incredibly weak article. Still, journalists have to fill column inches, so if people feed them stories (which they do do for obvious reasons) they print 'em.

Cold extremities is a known symptom, (as is weight-gain -- not that there aren't other possible causes for that).

I can't understand "can't seem to grab hold of any enthusiasm" in the context of "[what] I really want to do".

Possibly, this means something like you think you should "want to do"...

It's unlikely you are, because it tends to be depleted in soil, owing to use of PNK fertlizers rather than manure for fertlizing fields. Measurements on common vegetables across the years apparently...

Here's an interesting story.

The skeleton of a big cat turned up in a museum storeroom in Bristol and was analysed by scientists at Durham and other universities. It had been shot in the British...

Personally, I wouldn't.

But I think people living as hunter-gatherers might have eaten just about anything when hungry enough -- stuff that would astonish us -- and I don't honestly know how much...

Yes, here's one.

"Invalid food" has become dry toast, but it doesn't always seem to have been so. In the 19th century you'd quite likely have been given broth, cock-a-leekie soup, "beef tea", or...

Can't offer any personal experience on this one, but I think women's health is one of the areas Julia Ross specializes in. It may be worth taking a look at her stuff, specifically the book The Diet...

Yes, it's uncertain, isn't it? I don't know how often people living in our "first" (primal) way would use their fists. Perhaps more likely you'd either laugh at an insult or have immediate recourse...

It sounds like a stretch to me, too.

Dunno. It may depend on what "primal" means to you. For example, if it means mega-doses of vitamin D, then I guess that could mean that your vitamin A intake...

I think the truth of the matter is that "fat and animal protein" have been fingered for pretty much everything on pretty much no evidence for the last 50 years. The root of the matter seems to be...
