We dove into what ancestral (or primal, or paleo) eating actually means. It's not some trendy influencer thing—it's eating the way humans did for hundreds of thousands of years before agriculture came along and convinced us that grass seeds (aka grains) were food. Spoiler: they're not great for us.
