Thanks for the post - an interesting read.
I just wanted to question this point:
"We evolved to eat meat, and in doing so we got smarter, our brains got bigger, and all we have today is the result of that."
Humans are omnivores. This is a fact: if you look around, you can see that humans eat both plants and meat.
But this doesn't mean humans are adapted to eat meat. Meat eating is a result of a social change. Anatomically, we can't digest meat well. Our body doesn't know how to do that, and that results in common diseases.
Charles Darwin wrote:
The grading of forms, organic functions, customs and diets showed in an evident way that the normal food of man is vegetable like the anthropoids and apes and that our canine teeth are less developed than theirs and that we are not destined to compete with wild beasts or carnivorous animals.
Moreover, if you google on Intestinal tract length, Stomach acidity, Saliva, Shape of intestines, Fiber, Cholesterol, Claws and teeth and make a comparison, you can see that humans body is definitely a herbivorous one.
