Hey even though on raw paleo diets we are better off than the general population in terms of health but because our mothers didn't eat raw paleo when we were born and we didn't eat it as kid does this mean we are not healthy as we should be. I read somewhere that a couple of thousands of years ago human beings simply got smaller...including our brains getting smaller and other health issues?

OH, granted, there are undoubtedly some issues which can't be resolved just by a few years of going rawpalaeo. I for example will never regain perfect eyesight nor will I ever get the slightly increased height I'm sure I would have got if I'd been rawpalaeo since birth.Plus, I'm fairly certain that the rate of birth-defects among humans is much higher than in the wild animal population, and an RPD diet for many generations might improve the rate over time. AS for increased brain-size that undoubtedly would take a few thousand years(always assuming that the brain-size differences were due to eating less/more meats).

We could attempt to reverse the process.
We can procreate with fellow raw paleo people and have raw paleo children from the start.
Then hopefully do the same for grand children.
Then we will see if all our theorizing is true.

I'm fairly certain I would be no match for the exact same DNA encoded person born 20k years ago.

Makes me think of the photo of stacked roofs of skulls in Nutrition & Physical Degeneration. The ancient once being like three times thicker than the new ones. Also reminds me of some guys in the UFC who look like they came right from paleolithic times. And they do seem to be harder to knock out.

Yes, and even the DNA or at least its transcription has changed actually. The central dogma of molecular biology is utterlly wrong, in fact, even if a majority of biologists and of course GMO advocates still stick to it.
In fact we are not really so much "DNA encoded" as often believed up to now. Things are much more complex and flexible.
