Do you eat the same amount of pasture raised red meat as your ancestors did 5000 years ago?

No, because I want to live _much_ longer and already live longer than the average human from that era.

That's like suggesting not to use hygiene products to avoid allergies, but die younger. (We have such an example at the finnish-russian border: the russian side of locals uses less chemicals for their hygiene and has fewer allergies, the finnish side lives longer.)

Well, yeah, the majority of people back then died around the age of 30 because they were out hunting all day and got infections and died from lack of medical care. The average human from that era did not die from red meat consumption. Red meat is the most nutrient dense food you can eat and studies saying otherwise or saying that they increase your body acidity or lead to worse outcomes have been consistently disproven.

My understanding of the average age of a human being 30s-40s is that the average was skewed downwards heavily due to high infant/child mortality rates

		AFAIK at birth the average life expectancy was even slightly lower (30-35). At 15y it was about an extra 30-40y. Whatever the exact numbers: definitely skewed, like you said.
