Actually most of my Acadian ancestors came from the Western Fringe of France. And since the Basques were some of the first people to arrive at Nova Scotia or Canada; and communicate and make trades with the indigenous natives; I would not be surprised if I had some Basque ancestry with my French either. The Basque people seem to eat a diet rich and high in seafood and seem to be almost immune to it.Well maybe you have South French ancestry.
Anyway,what I wanted to show is that Brits are most lactose tolerant people,from whole world. Now,since most of ancestry in Great Britain is Celtic,what is the logic in telling that a large percentage of Irish people are from Anatolian farmers,when such a high percentage are lactose tolerant?
This shows that Celts main food was milk,so this means they were herders,mainly not farmers,as any mentally sane person will understand.
And is well known Celts were great herders of cows,also understood that in Wales there is a strong tradition in herding sheep.
And I doubt that if you drink milk you still need sun to get vitamin D,I know fresh milk is a very good source of vitamin D.
Louisiana is a bit different from Nova Scotia or Canada though; we actually had population migrations from mainland France, as well as a small contribution from Spain. (mostly "Galician" and "Basque" Canary Islanders.) We are not just Nova Scotia or "Acadia". So not all of us are "Acadians" or "Cajuns".
