Over the last century daily life for Homo Sapiens has become
considerably easier, particularly for those individuals living in western
industrialized societies.

of technological advances, including factory automation, farm machinery,
labor saving devices for the home, the automobile, telephones, television and
computers has allowed us to become steadily more productive.
At the same time these innovations have made our species much
more sedentary, obese and prone to a variety of chronic degenerative diseases
which put a considerable financial burden on the health care system
