Modern Diet: Why You're Sick & What You Can Do About It #shorts

Now we have and develop mood instability. So maybe the, let's talk about, you know, the brain game in this equation and how we can protect the most important thing we have, which is our brains.

So we're. Unfortunately, our society has evolved faster than we have. You know, we used to be hunters and gatherers and our body loves fat and high calorie things and things that are easily digested and absorbed because thousands of years ago we didn't know when we would eat. So we were, we evolved to eat the things that had the highest caloric density so that we could pack on as much weight. So when we went, you know, a few days or a week without eating, we wouldn't die. Right. Unfortunately, it takes hundreds of thousands of years to evolve, but it only has taken 200 years to make food that we have evolved to want to eat. So the food system, we create food based on what people like, right? There's a lot of focus groups, focus panels, you know, double stuff. Oreos don't exist because the food company wanted to put more cream in there. They did a focus panel and people said, I want more cream. And then they said, okay, let's make double stuffed Oreos, right? So we're unfortunately our own worst enemy when it comes to food. Now the other thing that happens with food is convenience. Again, we're our own worst enemy. We're so busy hectic lifestyles now that it's easier to eat a can of soup than to make soup yourself. We just do not have the time that we used to have. And the third thing that really impacts us is what we're doing now. Sitting at a desk 20, 30, 40, 50 years ago, we were doing a lot of physical manual labor and then we would eat. And during that time we were not eating the portion sizes or, or the types of food that we have available now.
