Ep 8 - Are We Better Off? Re-Thinking Human Health Past & Present

Are humans built for scarcity, but cursed by abundance. Some experts seem to think so. But are they right

Conventional wisdom says that humans evolved in a world of food scarcity and hard physical labor — and that today’s abundance of food and convenience makes obesity, type 2 diabetes, and chronic disease inevitable. Things have gotten so good, we just can’t handle it. I’m not so sure.

In this episode of Unconditional, host Norbie Schickel unpacks the paradox of modern abundance: despite unprecedented food security, technology, and entertainment, we’re experiencing record levels of obesity, anxiety, and depression. Something doesn’t add up.

Is scarcity our natural state? Or we cursed by our own abundance? Join Norbie — father, fitness enthusiast, and founder of Anthem Athletics — as he dives deep into what it takes to reclaim radical health and fitness, build an unstoppable mindset, and create your most unconditional life.
