Sweetness Powered Human Brain Evolution | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

While meat got the spotlight, glucose from plant-based carbs was likely the silent powerhouse behind our big brains, especially for pregnant women with heightened energy needs. This explains our deep-seated love of sweetness—and warns that today’s refined sugars are worlds apart from our ancestors’ natural sweet treats.
