🍯🧠 Did sugar help build the human brain? This fascinating Science review challenges the long-held belief that meat alone drove human evolution.

The authors argue that natural sugars from fruits and honey—and later cooked starch—provided the glucose essential for our expanding brains, reproduction, and survival.

The review integrates metabolism, anthropology, genetics, archaeology, and nutrition into a compelling new framework for understanding our evolutionary journey. A thought-provoking read for clinicians, scientists, and anyone interested in human origins. #HumanEvolution #Nutrition #MedicalPodcasts #Science
