Man, His Body and The Habitat

As for we Humans, one may wonder, what have we been eating, what have been doing ourselves and to the environment?. To put it simply, what are the transformations that the human body has undergone since the advent of civilization. Or on the other hand, how did human beings transform their habitat into what is today?.

We are constantly changing and so is this immense theater that is life. It is very obvious that our lives and the universe are never quite the same as time went on. It all depends on the time, the setting, the place where the piece is performed.

There is very little chance according to popular science, that one could have suffered, a thousand or two thousand years ago, from asthma, from seasonal or chronic rhinitis, from tinnitus, from acne, from lower back pain, fatty liver disease, irritable bowel syndrome, myopia, osteoporosis, sleep disorder, diabetes, depression, too high or too low blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, seizures anxiety, tuberculosis, fungal infections, malaria, attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity and so on.

It is fascinating to learn that we are the product of amino acids which, when put together, form proteins which, in turn, form cells. And so on until an organized system is formed, whether it is a starfish, a tree, or a human being.

This is not without consequences for our bodies. Our spine is suffering. It is unfortunate that most of those who have spent their lives at a sedentary job can no longer stand properly after the age of 40 because the perfect ‘S’ curvature of our spine starts to look more like a “Z”. In response to these changes in our lifestyle, our body defends itself and necessarily transforms. It is not quite the same as it was 300,000 years ago when we humans appeared.
