You can eat normally and swim or go on a bike, neither of those are things "humans were designed for", and yet they help.
If you think something is good/bad for you, the argument must be about the thing itself, not the fact that primitive humans did it or did not do it.
- lm28469 5y ago> and swim or go on a bike, neither of those are things "humans were designed for" You mean, exercising ? We very much have body designed for that. Not exercising and poor diet choices are the leading cause of death in the west...
- gjulianm 5y agoIs your body designed for swimming? Or for going on a bike? I don't think so. These are modes of exercise we invented (even when we aren't optimally designed for them) and yet they are good for us. If you followed the "primitive people did it/did not do it" argument you'd have to say that going swimming must be bad for you.
