"Por primera vez en la historia, hoy en día mueren más personas por comer en exceso que por comer muy poco."
— Yuval Noah Harari
Simplified Meaning:
Nowadays, more people are suffering and even dying because they consume too much food, rather than not having enough to eat. This is a significant change from the past, when starvation and food shortages were the main problems. For example, in developed countries, many people have access to an abundance of food, leading to health issues like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. In contrast, in less wealthy times or places, the main worry was not getting enough food, which caused malnutrition and starvation. To avoid these problems, it's important for people to eat balanced diets and practice moderation. This means choosing healthier foods and not overeating, which helps maintain good health and prevents diseases related to excessive eating.
