I think evolutionary patterns and changes looked at as a cause-effect relationship / model are the
longest term studies available.
But evolutionary comparisons are the easiest to manipulate, while controlled studies (short-term by comparison to evolutionary studies, but long term by comparision to one's life expectancy) are easier to understand and interpret.
Low-carbing, however, scores highest on both tracks.
And there are no long term studies to the opposite. Even the modern low-fat theory, is entirely based on a senate comittee based on lawyers, not on scientific studies. In addition, there are no records of vegan homo sapiens to study, and no long term studues on modern vegans.
One comment I want to add, is that we should not mix vegetables and fruits, with grains as they don't usually go together. Grain requires harvesting and farming, a very recent development.
In addition, fruits and vegetables, in a none industrial society, are not available year-round.
Thanks for pointing to that site to us, I bookmarked it, and like what I read so far.

P.S. I moved this from the War Zone, as it isn't controversial or "heated".
