What role does nutrition play in human evolution? Simple answer: an extremely big one! That's why we have dedicated two episodes of our podcast to answering this question. The first episode is about the crucial survival advantage our early ancestors gained by controlling the fire and then heating food. Who would have thought that heated food was the basis for the growth of the human brain? Presenter Peer Kittel and student Jule Wäntig discuss this and many other evolutionary developmental steps that were triggered by nutrition with our expert, food chemist Prof. Thomas Henle.
