Unravel the bioenergetic truths of human existence as these seven essays expose the critical mismatches between our evolutionary biology and modern living. Gain profound insights into metabolism, muscle, and the hidden costs of our contemporary world.
1. The Evolutionary Lag: Environmental Mismatch, The Extinction of Wasteful Metabolisms, and the Ideal Phenotype of Abundance The Temporal Disconnect of Evolutionary Adaptation
2. The Fallacy of Health-Centric Teleology: Natural Selection, Evolutionary Mismatch, and the Illusion of Abundant Well-Being The Teleological Fallacy: Natural Selection Does Not Optimize for Health
3. The Metabolic Cost of Contractile Tissue: Encephalization, Myostatin Regulation, and the Bioenergetic Trade-Off of Muscle Atrophy The High Energetic Tax of Unused Skeletal Muscle
