What should I eat? Well, what were people probably eating while our current design was being shaped by the forces of our environment, and what were those forces likely to consist of? For instance, an automobile was designed to run on gasoline, so I'm not going to put kerosene in it and expect it to run properly. So, by that same basic reasoning, I can understand so many things about my own body simply by grasping the basic concept of evolution. No advanced genetics required. And, hell, I think I just invented evolutionary biology! Wow, good thing I wasn't ripped-the-fuck-off and not taught this crucial concept at the foundation of so many areas of modern scientific thought.
