Historical Diet Shifts Correlate with Modern Disease and Dental Health Decline
Discover how ancient evidence from mummies and studies of modern tribes reveal that historical diet shifts, especially the move towards grains like wheat, correlate directly with modern chronic disease and profoundly poor dental health.
Short Summary
- Ancient Egyptians consuming wheat developed modern ailments like heart disease and excess fat storage across all socioeconomic classes.
- An early human lineage prioritizing increased plant consumption millions of years ago died out, while the carnivorous lineage survived.
- Contemporary plant-eating populations show significantly worse dental health compared to traditional, meat-heavy Arctic groups (Inuit).
- The speaker argues that rapid modern disease spikes are due to environmental/dietary changes introduced by specific foods, not genetics.
- Maintain strict dietary standards by prioritizing clean, species-appropriate food, often choosing to skip meals when presented with poor options.
This discussion uses historical archaeological data and comparative anthropological studies to link specific dietary components (like wheat) to systemic health failures visible in ancient remains. Understanding these historical patterns helps contextualize why rapid changes in diet today drive modern chronic illness and poor oral function.

I'm 70 years old, 9 years post MI, 7 years carnivore and have never felt better. I was recently basically dismissed by my cardiologist. This happened after he ordered a Nuclear stress test which showed near normal ejection fraction and no defects. I thought he was being nice and logical but when I read the post visit notes he stated that I was a noncompliant patient because I refuse to take a statin and weaned myself off of Metoprolol. I'm proud of my noncompliant label and so is my heart.
Just finished my salmon and ribeye for the day. Great video!
😎🥩🥚🧈🌎☮️🌊🌞🎵💃🕺💪🦋 Thank you Dr Chaffee and welcome back. We missed you.
I lost most of my teeth at 26. My teeth were beautiful, but the bones couldn’t hold them anymore. I also had many miscarriages (PCO). I’ve had IBS all my life. I wish I knew then what I know now. Life would have been different. I have been carnivore for 1.5 years now. I am much more healthy and my colon is much happier.
God bless you always
Just ate bacon and eggs while the tri tip roast cooked in the oven air fryer. So grateful
In 1969, when I was in Grade 2, there was only one obese kid in our school, out of 450 young boys. He was on some steroid/cortisone treatment for some medical condition. Everyone else was lithe, thin, and all ate mostly meat. Sugar in the diet was rather minimal. I grew up in a fruit growing region, yet fruit wasn't as abundant or accessible as today. Our family had watermelon once or twice in summer. I was 58 before I first tasted blueberry.
The Nubians by contrast who worked on the pyramids and spent little to no time indoors - always out in the sun - had perfect dentition and jaw formation. Not sure what their diets consisted of but suggests sunlight was also a major protective factor against disease and degneration.
Red meat heals. The medical establishment hates it.
I apologize for not knowing English and for using a translator. I am from Russia and was born in 1965. As a child, we never ate fruit in the winter, and I didn't like jam because of the sugar. We ate seasonally, and I didn't like pickles as a child. Every day, we ate meat for lunch, and my mother prepared a generous portion for each family member. This kept us healthy. In 2018, I learned about the carnivore diet. I've been on it for six months. My diabetes went into remission, my asthma and arthritis improved, my teeth stopped hurting, and I lost 27 pounds. Despite this, I stopped following the diet, and as a result, I had a mini-stroke in December 2023. Now, I'm considering returning to the diet, but I'm still on a low-carb diet.
