[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They grew up in a less polluted and degraded world. Strong infants survived their childhoods and grew up to have a good immune system. They also did not have junk food (because of cost) available, and they did a lot more physical labor. They did not have so many chemicals and endocrine disrupters in their system like today. Now, we survive childhood diseases and get many medical interventions. However, we are frail because we have environmental pollution, lack of physical activity, junk food, lack human connection and sense of family, too many medical interventions to prolong our lives - and we are not only dying early but we have a bad quality of life when we are alive. [/quote] I have to laugh at the less polluted comment. That is definitely not the case. We know so much more about the effect of certain things (contamination in the lakes/rivers/swimming holes, smoking, asbestos, etc). You’d be scared entering their world today. [/quote]
