Your Body Wasn't Made for This World
A gorilla named Mokolo was dying. At 461 pounds with an enlarged heart, this western lowland gorilla at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo suffered from the same heart disease killing captive male gorillas and human males worldwide. The strange part? Mokolo never touched fast food, red meat, or processed sugar. He ate what seemed like a healthy vegan diet: fortified fiber bars called "gorilla biscuits," supplemented with vegetables and fruit. Yet he was sick, overweight, and displaying bizarre behaviors-regurgitating his food and obsessively plucking his hair. The solution came from an unexpected place: mimicking what wild gorillas actually eat. The zoo eliminated processed biscuits and replaced them with grocery store vegetables resembling plants wild gorillas would encounter. The transformation was remarkable. Mokolo lost seventy pounds despite eating twice as many calories. The hair-plucking stopped. The regurgitation disappeared. This wasn't magic-it was biology. By honoring what gorillas evolved to eat, the zoo helped Mokolo thrive. The principle is elegantly simple: know thy species. Study an animal in its natural habitat, then recreate those conditions. This same wisdom applies to us. We are animals with specific biological needs shaped by millions of years of evolution, and when we ignore them, we get sick.
