In recent years, advocacy has become fashionable. Paleolithic dietor the Paleolithic diet, is an eating plan based on assumptions about what humans would have eaten between 2.5 million and 10,000 years ago.
Mayo Clinicfrom the United States, says thatThe modern Paleolithic diet includes fruits, vegetables, lean meats, fish, eggs, nuts, and seeds. They are foods that were consumed by hunters and gatherers before the agricultural revolution.
Agriculture made it easier to obtain grains and legumes, and introduced milk and dairy products. In addition, the diet of animals intended for human consumption changed.

What Was Really Eaten In Prehistoric Times, According To Science
What was eaten in prehistoric times? We imagine the Stone Age with a very carnivorous man, like in the Far Cry series. Studies say they were actually full of vegetables.
“The transition from hunting and gathering to agriculture is one of the most important food revolutions in history. However, due to the scarcity of well-preserved human remains from Pleistocene sites, researchers know very little about the dietary practices of pre-agricultural human groups. Nature scientific journal.
According to isotopic evidence, hunter-gatherers of the Late Stone Age (about 15,000 to 13,000 years ago) “unequivocally demonstrate that A major plant component in their diet.” Data on the diet of this human group casts doubt on the prevailing idea of a heavy reliance on animal proteins.
During the Neolithic period, the domestication of wild animals and plants began, as well as the establishment of stable settlements.
Figs are believed to have been harvested as early as 10,000 years ago. Humans are believed to have eaten wild vegetables as early as 20,000 years ago.
Recent research at the Taforalt site (caves in the Oujda region of Morocco dating back to 20,000 years BC) I suggest early consumption of carbohydrate-rich plants. “This is demonstrated by the large number of wild plant species as well as the prevalence of tooth decay among human burials,” the researchers explain.
The Iberomaurusians inhabited North Africa during the late Pleistocene. The earliest evidence of this culture is found at Tamar Hat, and dates back 25,000 years. The timing of its end is uncertain, with some evidence suggesting it may have continued into the Holocene epoch around 11,000 years ago.
Researchers acknowledge that there is no evidence of domestication of plant and animal species by the Iberomaurusians, but some behaviors indicate a transition towards a sedentary lifestyle. For example, in the city of Taforalt, There is evidence of selective harvesting and storage of edible vegetables.

Researchers believe that the great abundance of wild vegetables may have had a strong influence on their diet. nut consumptionFor example, it could explain why Iberomaurusian sites are found in forested areas near the Mediterranean Sea.
The study highlights the importance of plants in the diet of the Taforalt population. They add that early weaning of infants is possible in that place. Promotes the idea of a plant-based approach to eating. However, they admit that more research is needed to confirm these eating habits.
