> Their diet is different in many ways than hunter gatherers of the past

There was no single diet of hunter gatherers in the past.



Yes, and these guys are different from all of 'em.


Mostly fresh food- eating things they day they were picked or killed as the default. But generally in an environment of abundance with generational wisdom about what is nutrient dense. The group in the study may be eating lots of honey because they are more marginalized today by territorial pressure and others hunting and hunting restrictions, etc.
