Mammals other than humans use fat to keep themselves alive when plants and fruits aren't available. But as I educate myself on how my body processes nutrients, I am finding it interesting that as soon as we started farming fruits and stuff, we started contracting all these weird diseases. As soon as we started mass-producing processes stuff to feed an exponentially-increasing population, everyone started to get fat. Diseases and disorders came out of the woodworks. Coincidence? Probably not.
I just had to highlight the (non-diet related) bit that gave me cancer. The reason new diseases came about is because agriculture caused humans and animals to be cooped up together and farming fruits and veg brought disease carrying birds and rats into to human settlements because they ate the fruit and veg too. Also the population is increasing because of agriculture and farming, not the other way around. Nowadays, part of the reason for the prevelance of certain disorders and diseases is because we're at a weird point in our evolution where physically we're still incredibly similar to hominids and our early human ancestors but our environment and the way we live is so different, essentially we're waiting for our bodies to catch up to our brains.
