Fat The Most Important Macronutrient?

Did you know?  That although it's gained some steam lately under the "Paleo Diet" name, this optimal lifestyle of eating has been around for a long time, and in the modern time for over 40 years.  A polish doctor named it  "The Optimal Diet" (the same thing as the CrossFit's prescription of eating/ or Paleo, or Primal or Caveman) 40 years ago.  Click the link above to read a little more about it. (Note:  i think his Carb prescription is much to low for normal/ active CrossFitters, but he is talking about diabetic, extremely overweight and coach potatoes at the beginning).
