In 'El mono obeso', Dr. José Enrique Campillo Álvarez provides a deep analysis of the role our genes play in the development of 'diseases of affluence,' such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. The author explains how these ailments, which affect a large portion of the population in developed and emerging societies, arise from the incompatibility between our evolutionary design and our modern lifestyle. This book is an essential read for understanding the biological mechanisms behind current health issues and how prevention is key to combating them. Through a perspective based on Darwinian medicine, Campillo invites us to reflect on the inadequate use we make of our bodies, providing fundamental tools to improve our health and well-being.
