Anthropologists
have established that human culture, social organization and body
adaptations arose from a background in nature as a fruit eating
animal. Humans, like their close relatives primate and simian cousins
in nature are clannish in social organization. Most of their
acculturization involves the beauty of their natural foods, fruits,
and the trees which produce them. Physically, humans were developed on
fruits just as our simian and other primate relatives in nature.
In
consequence anthropologists and biologists have classified humans as
fruit eaters also named frugivores.
Dr.
Alan Walker of Johns Hopkins University in Maryland examined the
fossil remains of humans. After making detailed examinations,
especially of the teeth, he concluded that humans were exclusively
and only fruit eaters. Walker's examinations were detailed in the May
15, 1979 issue of The
New York Times.
His findings came like a bombshell into our culture, where fruits are
relatively sparse in the diet.
Herodotus,
the Greek historian records, that Greeks were heavy eaters of olives,
figs, dates, grapes, apples, oranges and other fare.
This noted
historian wrote: "The oldest inhabitants of Greece, the
Pelasgians, who came before the Dorian, Ionian and Elian migrations,
inhabited Arcadia and Thessaly, possessing the islands of Lesbos and
Lakemanas, which were full of orange groves. The people with their
diet of dates and oranges lived on an average of more than 200
years."
Another
Greek, the poet Hesiod, said: "The Pelasgians and the people who
came after them in Greece, ate fruits of the virgin forest and
blackberries from the fields." Plutarch, the Greek biographer,
observed: "The ancient Greeks, before the time of Lycurgus, ate
nothing but fruits."
Much
of our history indicates that our ancestors were fruitarian.
History books today omit or falsify our past and our fruit-eating
nature.
Biology and physiology books are also so altered.
Even such a
simple word as frugivore has been omitted from most current
dictionaries and encyclopedias...
