Have any supporters of high-carb ever offered any evidence to support the arguments that (a) we've evolved beyond the Paleolithic diet, (b) the Paleolithic diet was unhealthy for our ancestors, or (d) that really, the early diet was in fact *not* low-carb?

I forgot to mention this, our ancestors discovered farming, grains and sugar first in ancient Egypt, where carbs started creeping into our diet. The interesting thing is that the earliest accounts of heart disease and diabetes are documneted in ancient Egypt.
