 We adapted then and we have to adapt now too

 Humans seem to be adapting by creating medical treatments for obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and the loss of muscle and bone density.

Or they do special excersizes.

▲ ▼

 Men also seem to be developing a taste for very thin women. Perhaps trying to start off at a deficit, so that her added-fat doesn't cause her to later be as big as a house.

Women used to just go up a dress size and look a bit plumper.

 It's been rather strange watching most of the women who were narrower than I become wider.
I always felt so humungous because of my heavy frame.

But I just stayed that way.

 Our civilization is becoming is more digital and less physical. Whether we like that or not is a different matter. We should at least be open minded to a range of possibilities. And physical excercise is ofc still crucial to live a good life.

 Humans have been eating grains for thousands of years.

▲ ▼

 approximately 15,000 years

and before that, what you think?

▲ ▼

 for some 185,000 years we did not eat this shit

 Human adaption is slow. Not that slow. That's about 215 generations.

And humans have always been able to digest some starches, such as roots, vegetables, or fruit. We're omnivores.

 Okay, I can agree with that. Many people probably can't correctly process seeds.
Or alcohol.

 alcohol suppresses some of the effects of high blood sugar... i only just learned this recently, it increases insulin response

▲ ▼

 Ah, just searched for that. You appear to be correct. Interesting.

▲ ▼

 Perhaps there's a reason why alcohol tolerance and the ability to process seeds occurs together.

▲ ▼

 yes, beer and seed eating appeared at the same time
