In our relentless pursuit of health, we are surrounded by a deafening chorus of advice. Eat six small meals a day. Never skip breakfast. Count every calorie. We are armed with high-tech apps and complicated diet rules, yet as a society, we are heavier and sicker than ever. This paradox suggests a fundamental misunderstanding of our own biology. We are trying to solve an ancient problem with modern, and often flawed, logic. What if the most profound secret to a lean, energetic, and healthy body isn't found in a lab or an app, but in our own evolutionary history? What if the key is to stop fighting our bodies and start listening to the ancient wisdom encoded in our DNA? For millions of years, our ancestors thrived in an environment of food scarcity. They experienced periods of feast and periods of famine. This rhythm of eating and not eating shaped our genetics. It made us incredibly efficient at storing energy and even more efficient at using that stored energy.
