Part: They are part of healthy diet best obtained by a diet of unprocessed grains (not wheat or corn) like brown rice or quinoa, vegetables (not potatoes), beans, fruit, nuts like walnuts/pecans/almonds), or seeds + wild caught game (fish or free range chicken or cage free eggs). This is the correct food intake for the human biology. www.thepmc.org.
