At the dawn of time, when men still lived in caves, there was only one blood type known as type O. Cave men were nomads and did not know how to make fires so their diet consisted mostly of raw meats, nuts and fruits.
As time passed, these primitive men learned how to control and create fire and they began to cook meat and to boil herbs and fruits. Thanks to the use of fire, they no longer needed to migrate in search for warmer climates. Soon enough there were small villages and cities were men started to raise animals instead of hunting. With this change in food a new blood type was created; type B.
Time passed and since the villagers had fire and plenty of food, the first recipes of processed food were created; foods such as wine, beer, cheese and bread. And with these new foods blood type A was formed.
Eventually blood type AB was formed but we know very little about it as it is very new and less than 10% of the population have it.
Nowadays, most people are still blood type O and are considered universal donors because this blood type, being the precursor to the others is compatible with all of them.
It’s taken human blood thousands of years to change and adapt to new diets, and we can speculate that more blood types will continue to be formed as humans evolve.
The advances of this last millennium in transportation and communications make it possible for a banana that has been grown in Thailand to be sold in the US. With these advances, the food that was previously limited to a certain part of the globe can no be enjoyed anywhere by anyone.
The problem with this is that our body has not had the time to evolve and adapt to the new diet, and many of the health issues that plague us today can be traced back to this.
We find that, in the case of Native Americans, the percentage of alcoholic related health problems is higher. This is because beer was not consumed by Native Americans until less than 200 years ago and their system haven’t evolved enough to properly tolerate it.
How many foods do you eat in the course of one week that would not be available to you a hundred years ago? Sushi, Chinese food and margaritas are just a few examples.
