The first human remains were found in Ethiopia, almost 200,000 years ago. During that time, Ethiopia had a warm and tropical climate. It is likely that we evolved to be humans in this hot environment. And you're hot, too. The human body is 98.6 degrees on average. You are a warm-blooded human. Humans, eventually, left their tropical roots and populated the planet in cooler regions north and south of the equator. Since then, we have lost brain size, our metabolic rates have dropped, obesity rates have risen, and we have more lifestyle disease than ever before.
