Millions of years of evolution where we never knew when/if our next meal would be coming, versus the last 3/4 of a century or so where sugar-laden fruits are easily accessible year-round and eating a pound of fatty meat at every meal is just one quick stop at the supermarket away.
Our bodies simply weren’t built to eat this way this much, and evolution is a sllooowwww process.
A few billion years of evolution, during which starvation was a very real danger, and food was often available infrequently, but in large amounts.
Every single one of your ancestors managed to NOT STARVE (at least not before reproducing), often by stuffing themselves on the rare occasions when they could, so they could survive the other 90% of the time when there wasn’t much food available.
