The description on this board has always bothered me. I am a low carber, and I basically follow a diet close to this description. However, the idea that omnivores must not eat sweet fruit or honey on occasion as the season dictates is biased towards low carb eating, imho. I think it has already been established that in and near the tropics, fruits are available for major portions of the year. Peoples living in these regions have been known to exploit these foods for millennia. Some of these fruits are extremely sweet, such as dates. (Did you know that dates don't cause tooth decay? Yes, the study concerned Middle Eastern school boys, iirc.) But anyway, as Weston Price found recently with tradition tribes in modern times, carbohydrate intake can and does vary by location. (Not everyone has Polar ancestry (although I happen to).) But at least in terms of dental health and bone structure in general, the tropical peoples were fine (and certainly had less caries than the bread and cheese eating Swiss). Of course, all of these people exercised a ton, and as has been demonstrated recently in adolescents, you can eat all the nutrients you want, but if you don't work your body, it won't grow bigger bones and muscles.
Please consider taking the limit of non sweet fruit off of this board's description.
