If you observe our teeth they also point to our predecessors being omnivorous, rather then herbivorous. For one thing we have Canines, which are nigh on non-existent among herbivorous speices. Likewise our molars are "multipurpose".

PS. Just in case you haven't caught what I have been trying to hint at with these 2 posts; the cure for cancer already exists. It has been known in the west since the early 1900s by homeopathic medicine, which was later labeled as fake and full of swindles by the allopathic medicine establishment. All you have to do is limit your intake in animal protein.

The cure for cancer has been distorted by the industry because there is no money to be made and natural food cannot be patented, but chemical compounds can. But this is a topic for another day.
Homeopathy LOL. Sorry to break it to you, it is just water.

Did you know you can create water from the planet's air by condensing the hydrogen in it? Did you know that the devise already exists? Why is it that most people haven't heard of it? Why hasn't it been implemented in water-starved areas already? What about green energy? Why not look further in to zero point energy or solar energy?
LOL. (Almost) No Hydrogen exists freely floating in the air because it would immediately combust with Oxygen to form water. Meanwhile, everyone knows that actual water exists in the atmosphere, why do you think they're always referring to humidity in weather reports? That's the amount of water contained in a given amount of air. On a humid day I can put out a piece of plastic and water will bead on it. It's old hat.

Such devices do in fact exist that help water deprived areas get water. But there's 2 problems:
1. You only get a trickle, enough to get drinking water, but not nearly enough for crops(most water is used in agriculture...)
2. In arid regions they don't work very well anyway as those areas are notoriously, well, dry.

I claim that what you know and what you believe is the product of the profit driven social system. Reagan said it himself after all: "Government is not part of the solution is part of the problem". Of course, there is a little marvelous invention called the internet which has brought chaos to the good old political systems, media establishments and industries alike. * sarcasm* Not to worry though, we need to protect our children from internet porn, and cut the communication of terrorist groups across the globe. So it is important to regulate the internet! */end sarcasm*
It also provides endless new opportunities for snake salesman to sell their wares on new fools. For your own sake, take some more classes in chemistry and physics.

Why is "green" energy expensive? Because it is scarce. It takes billions of dollars to in order to develop efficient alternate methods of energy. It is the same with food. In the US is cheaper to buy a can of soda than a bottle of water. It is cheaper to buy a Big Mac than a couple of tomatoes.
You're living in a strange world, I can go down to the supermarket and get some tomatoes for cheap. And water is pretty much free out of a tap. Bottled water is just an overpriced con (unless you live somewhere with unsafe water). The other reason Bottled water is so expensive is that it's actually more expensive to ship it as you can't transport it in concentrated form (which i imagine Soda is). Unsurprisingly the vast majority of a drinks weight is water. If you can remove the water and then re add it close to point of sale a lot of money is saved...

Yes! they are well known and consumed regularly but the trick is to "to know what you eat and what it does to your body, you should care about which foods raise or lowers your alkaline levels, which foods have a high acidic value and much more because this is crucial to your well being. This is something that the vast majority of people don't know. The aim of the term superfoods is to increase nutritional awareness. It is the task of the consumer to properly identify them.
It's not so complicated as you make it out. A little bit of common sense goes a long way, most people with bad diets know there diet is bad, and they know how to fix it (simple answer -> eat more fruits and vegetables, eat less prepackaged/junk foods). Not that complicated.

If you want to introduce non native foods into a culture all you got to do is use the media. Yes the same media that makes you believe what it wants you to believe.
You make it sound malevolent, they're just trying to shill a project on you, it's still your choice whether you buy it...

Let us be clear, cancer cannot be absolutely removed from our species. Cancer is a part of mutation and as such it is part of the evolutive process. Everyone produces cancerous cells, we all live with cancer in a way, the problem is when you have too many mutated cells in your body. It is the human induced cancers that can be cured and prevented. These cancers are byproducts of our food and chemical industries which introduce imbalances to our bodies. Japanese people for example used to have a very low rate of cancer compared to the rest of the modern world, but ever since the induction of western products, including food, they have begun to lose that advantage.
Cancer is a disease of old age, you'll find in most non-developed countries Cancer rates are extremely low, because usually something else kills a person first.

We've eliminated or ameliorated almost all the common causes of death. It's very uncommon for a person to die from Disease or malnutrition. Heart Disease can be treated with blood pressure meds. Malfunctioning organs can be replaced. But Cancer, it's hard.

Also western populations also have higher rates of cancer due to the fact we're a lot more susceptible to skin cancer, because we're, well, white.
