Evolution of the Western Diet and the Origins of Modern Chronic

Disease

D. Barry Boyd, M.D., M.S.

Modern Diet and Lifestyle Declining nutrient diversity Altered dietary patterns (Western Diet) Non-whole food diets – “Food like

substances” Supplemental nutrients – 25 $ billion / year Modern agricultural practices leading to altered

growth conditions (nutrient loss) New exposures (POPs, metals)- “EDC”

Microbial food contamination Indoor lifestyle ( inadequate vitamin D)

Fundamental - Nutrition Transition Altered Energy Balance- No “feast or famine”

Early Man - 200,000 - 12,000 yrs

Paleolithic Diet (hunter-gatherer/forager)High diet diversity Nuts, seeds, tubers, roots (40+ plants) High meat (game), fish, shellfish (latitudinal) Caloric adequacy / high caloric expenditureNutrient adequacy Moderate to high protein High Complex Carbs Moderate fat ( PUFA [ N6=N3] >> SFA) High K+/Na++ Adequate Ca++ / Vitamin D Abundant micronutrients Disease / Health Tall stature, limited dental disease Low risk – chronic disease (HTN, DM, CHD, Ca)

Cancer In Pre Modern Man Paleopathology (paleo-oncology) - Evidence Skeletal (bone lesions)Mummified remains (limited soft tissue preservation)Capasso, L Antiquity of Cancer Int J Cancer 2005Bone Lesions in skeletal remains- rare

Primary/ Benign Bone Lesions, few Metastases176 cases / >28,000 separate skeletal remains ( <0.1%)

Mummified Remains – rare throughout all pre-modern populations (Egypt, Peru, Chile, Alaska, China)

Cancers- Nasopharyngeal Ca, MyelomaBenign Lesions- Osteoma, OsteomyelitisLimitation - Bone (vs soft tissue remains) Age (early mortality –median age 30 yrs)Cancer was a rare disease throughout

most of human history

Contribution of nine food groups to traditional inuit food intake (%energy)

Inuits and Disease

Low Cardiovascular risk- Htn, ASCVD Low DM / Insulin Resistance Osteoporosis + - Low Fracture Risk Malignancy: Limited Breast, Colorectal, Endometrial, Prostate Different – Nasopharyngeal, Cervical, Liver “High Fat, Protein, Low plant-based carbohydrates” No or limited phytonutrients ! Nutrition Transition - Western Disease (+ rickets!)

Neolithic – Rise of Agriculture( 12,000 to Industrial Era)

Grain/ cereal- based (wheat, rice, maize)Declining diet diversity Micronutrient deficiencies (Fe, I, Zn) Lower meat intake, increasing dairyPeriodic food shortages – famineRapid population growth, rapid genetic changesDisease /Health Declining stature/height ( ~ 8-10” shorter) Increasing infectious disease/ parasite load

declined significantlyAttempts now focus on understanding

patterns and determinants of activity andinactivity

Research to date has ignored work andhome production [cleaning, cooking,etc]

US average= 73 mins/day of drivingOne-fourth of all trips made are one

mile or less, but three-fourths of theseshort trips are made by car

Children between the ages of 5-15walk/bike 40% less in 1995 than in1977

For school trips one mile or less, only31% are made by walking; within 2miles, only 2% are made by biking.

In the US, 6% of trips are bywalking/biking. In contrast, Italy (54%),Sweden (49%)
