An Emerging Epidemic of Noncommunicable Diseases in Developing Populations Due to a Triple Evolutionary Mismatch.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 1 Jun 2016

Koopman Jacob J E, van Bodegom David, Ziem Juventus B, Westendorp Rudi G J

Abstract excerpt

With their transition from adverse to affluent environments, developing populations experience a rapid increase in the number of individuals with noncommunicable diseases. Here, we emphasize that developing populations are more susceptible than western populations to acquire these chronic diseases, because their genetic, cultural, and epigenetic characteristics do not match with the eagerly awaited affluent...
