I mean, some healthy cultures ate grains. Can we do that now, is it different than when they did that?

Her question was, there are cultures that seem to be able to thrive by eating grains.

I meant partly grains in combination, they could have it in their diet, right?

The cultures who eat strictly grains are the unhealthiest cultures in the world. They're third world countries, you can see the children and their distended stomachs and their bones with extended stomachs. Those are cultures that only eat grain. It's a very malnourished culture.
Those who mix like the Japanese and Chinese, uh, and eat lots of grains still is not a healthy thing because the human body can only handle about 7 - 8% advanced glycation end products.
