                                Over the last two million years, the human brain has nearly tripled in size, a remarkable feat largely attributed to changes in our ancestors' diet. This dramatic increase highlights the profound significance of nutrition in evolution, acting as a crucial selective pressure that molded our physical and genetic makeup.
