Healthy eating

Humans did not evolve to chomp on ‘junk food’ high in sugar and fat, and low in essential nutrients. Rather than sweets, cakes, pastries, take-away food and ready-meals, we evolved to eat a diet rich in fruit and vegetables and low in animal fats. In contrast, the typical modern Western diet produces an overabundance of energy. If you do not burn this energy off, the body stores the surplus in ‘fat cells’ as a precaution against famine. People living in industrialized nations can easily access food. As a result, about three-fifths of women and two-thirds of men in the UK are overweight or obese.
