High fat diet and your gut microbiome

I am not convinced that high fat diet is paleo. On the contrary our ancestors did have gathered and hunt strenuously to find fat.
Jeff Leach has a point in his blog

And I totally agree with his paper in the Brit J of Nutrition:

We have a lot to learn about the role of gut flora in low level inflammation which is a key of chronic diseases.
