The Evolutionary Mismatch: Our Modern Diet Crisis

What if everything we've been told about healthy eating is fundamentally flawed? Anthropologist Stephen Le began questioning conventional nutritional wisdom after witnessing his Vietnamese immigrant mother die of breast cancer at 66, while his grandmother who maintained traditional eating habits lived to 92. This stark contrast launched him on a global journey to understand why modern diets are failing us. Through vivid storytelling that combines personal adventure with rigorous science, Le reveals how abandoning ancestral eating patterns has triggered an epidemic of "diseases of civilization" - and offers a compelling roadmap back to health through evolutionary eating. His work has been praised by leading nutritionists and anthropologists, with Michael Pollan calling it "one of the most important contributions to our understanding of food in years." The central insight? Our bodies evolved over millions of years to thrive on specific dietary patterns, and our rapid shift away from these patterns has outpaced our biological ability to adapt.
