HHAHAHAHAH PALEO AND KETO FAGS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY BTFO

https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/682587

The rapid growth in hominin brain size during the Middle Pleistocene will have required an increased supply of preformed glucose. Such increased demands can be met through a range of biologically and culturally driven dietary adaptations. Noting that there is considerable overlap in date estimates for the origins of controlled fire use and the origins of AMY1 CNV, we hypothesize a gene-culture coadaptation scenario whereby cooking starch-rich plant foods coevolved with increased salivary amylase activity in the human lineage. Without cooking, the consumption of starch-rich plant foods is unlikely to have met the high demands for preformed glucose noted in modern humans.

Where does that imply that they ate exclusively plant based starchy foods? And where in my original post did I say she shouldn't eat any carbs?
