"western diet" okay say what it actually is, they act like we dont also eat vegetables, the implication is they went full carnivore or mcdonalds type shit
Western diet in a nut shell
Look at the nutrition information for any food you buy, if the ingredient isn't something you could make at home... Then it's a western diet type of food and heavily processed
Example Nature's Choice Granola Bars: https://www.naturevalley.com/products/oats-n-honey-crunchy-granola-bars
I've bolded the parts that are heavily processed and making this a western diet food
Not related to this paper, but if they had looked at a carnivore diet in humans they would have found a great microbiome...
Yeah that granola is like, sugar/-protein, sugar, fat, sugar, sugar, salt, sugar...
