When Our Greatest Strengths Became Our Deadliest Weaknesses
What if the very traits that kept humanity alive for 200,000 years are now killing us? This isn't science fiction-it's the reality of modern medicine. Heart disease, diabetes, anxiety, depression: these aren't random afflictions but predictable consequences of a profound mismatch. We're Stone Age bodies navigating a Space Age world, and the collision is deadly. Our genes haven't caught up with our grocery stores, our stress levels, or our sedentary lives. The same biological systems that once meant survival-our hunger for calories, our hair-trigger stress responses, our blood's eagerness to clot-now betray us daily. Understanding this paradox doesn't just explain why we're sick; it transforms how we think about health itself.
