Fitness and Our Forebears: Insights into the Health of the Modern Human.
Elliott, William T.
CUPA Journal, v40 n4 p1-6 Win 1989
The Discordance Hypothesis suggests that the human genetic makeup has only changed one-hundredth of one percent in the last 10,000 years. In that time the world has changed dramatically and the environment has become hazardous to our health. The goal is to emulate our ancestors' diet and lifestyle. (MLW)
