Share Article

The modern world is filled with tasty, cheap foods that humans were never meant to eat - -and it’s making them fat. Evolutionary Eating, a new book from Praeclarus Press, shows readers how to eat well and avoid the hazards of the modern fat habitat.

Evolutionary Eating helps readers take control of their health by eating real food and avoiding modern food substitutes that masquerade as food, and are destroying our health.

For most of history, long before diets or gyms were invented, human beings were not fat but maintained relatively slim and shapely silhouettes throughout their lives. In the last 50 years, there has been a dramatic change; not in humans’ genes, but in their environment. In Evolutionary Eating: How We Got Fat and 7 Simple Fixes, published by Praeclarus Press, physician Theresa Nesbitt describes the hazards of the modern diet, including many "diet" foods that are ruining Americans’ health—and making them fat to boot.

Human beings evolved as the most highly adaptable species on Earth. They have learned to survive and thrive in a wide variety of food environments. Unfortunately, the modern world is triggering changes in their bodies that make them store and hoard fat. It is very difficult to lose weight in fat-storage mode, and even harder to keep it off.

Americans seem to long for rescue from the latest diet-and-exercise fad, but live in FATland, surrounded by almost-constant signals to eat, and an abundant supply of cheap, tasty food. The only thing that’s "magic" is that food can be in your stomach literally seconds after you think about eating it.

It doesn’t have to be this hard.

Fortunately, humans have an inborn weight-regulating mechanism. But they must learn skills to master the modern food environment, avoid eating modern products that masquerade as food, and get out of fat-storage mode. Evolutionary Eating is a guide for everything men and women need to know about how to become skillful eaters, enjoy foods they were designed to eat, and stay fit in our modern fat habitat.

Dr. Theresa Nesbitt is the author of Evolutionary Eating. She is an obstetrician/gynecologist and wellness counselor. She has helped thousands of clients stop dieting, enjoy eating real foods, and reclaim their health.
