The man, running after wild animals, increased his muscles.And then he ate meat, rich in poor proteins and fats.After all, wild animals are also difficult to get fat in the struggle for life.And women collected herbs and roots, vegetables.These were women who brought up to 60 % of a cave's diet.At the same time, in the life of the people of caves, the period of the fruit was very short, for example, August-September.It was a month of carbohydrate load.But it was then that the pancreas began to produce insulin, which quickly turned fruit carbohydrates into fat deposits needed for "high quality" winter.At the same time, the person was constantly hungry.But when a primitive man became more civilized, he began to cook the fruit settings and preserve it.And so make "fat" reserves for yourself.

To lose weight, open the doors of happiness
According to Ducan, there are only ten doors of happiness.He wrote a separate book about it.

- The first door is food.This is one of the most important foundations of life - if you don't eat, you will die.And you will like food.
- The second door is sex.Sex is not just like a physical principle, but as love, as an emotion.
- The third door is power.The more influence you have, the greater the release of serotonin - the hormone of happiness.
- The fourth door is your cozy home,Where it is good to go back, an important point in a happy life.
- The fifth door- Physiology, all related to our body, including sports.
- Sixth- Nature and everything she gives, that is, clean air, the green of the foliage, the smell of the earth ...
- Seventh- Attached to your social group, be it a group of interests or work.
- Eighth- All related to the game, entertainment.
These eight doors have people and animals.But the remaining two doors are inherent only to people.
- The Ninth Gates- All the sacred religion and not just.
- And the tenth- Beauty.We can only admire and enjoy beauty.
If you have all these ten open doors, you're happy, you get serotonin.But if any of them are closed, you miss it.And you start eating, opening the first and nearest nearest door.
