Are you saying, then, that somewhere along the way, a large portion of humanity and their domestic pats turned into gluttons? https://www.intechopen.com/chapters/41405
Wake up. We lived for thousands of year with hardly anything to eat and never knowing where the next few bites might come from. AND we smoked !! Evidence of smoking is now for the past 12,000 YEARS. Smoking: so have something to put in your mouth. Adult pacifiers. Stop with the dumb science.
Paradoxically, over the course of the 20th century famine was virtually eradicated from most of the world, whilst over the same period there occurred some of the worst famines in recorded history. This is because many of the major famines of the 20th century were the outcome of wars or totalitarian regimes. As such, the waning of the very high levels of warfare over the last decades and the spread of democratic institutions have also played a large part in the substantial reduction in famine mortality witnessed in recent decades. https://ourworldindata.org/famines
Archeological studies suggest the use of tobacco in around first century BC, when Maya people of Central America used tobacco leaves for smoking, in sacred and religious ceremonies. It then later started spreading as far as high up to the Mississippi Valley with the Maya community migrating from down south of America, between 470 and 630 AD. Gradually, it was then adopted by neighboring and native tribes. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3894096/
You might have a point about early tobacco use. "One length of Neanderthal DNA is now linked to increased risk of nicotine addiction, and several variants influence the risk of mood disorders, including depression. As tobacco was introduced into widespread use in Europe only 400 years ago, the researchers were surprised at the number of Neanderthal genetic variants now associated with modern psychiatric and neurological disorders." https://www.theguardian.com/science/2016/feb/11/neanderthal-dna-may-account-for-nicotine-addiction-and-depression
Protective and on point. The Anti-Wellness Diet is a good read.

It is 4:00 AM here in Montana and I am fully awake.
So, you're saying that those workers who built the great wall of China and the pyramids in Egypt and elsewhere must have smoked because they obviously didn't have an abundance of food? https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/438/ https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/ancient-pyramids-around-the-world-10343335/
And wars throughout history were over food shortages?

We smoked for 12000 years. I thought it was only 4000 but new research shows it is longer. WHY is smoking important for NOT getting fat??
