Both is true

That's why it's so important that before any IQ testing is done, the health of the individual is also tested

Ok. And what does it do to the genetic component of IQ in population if high IQ individuals in each time period choose not to breed?

Otherwise the IQ test can't properly predict success because it doesn't know if it's the peak IQ or not

And the poor ones do breed with govt handouts?

Better nutrition causes better genes

**WHAT!!!?!?**

^

Causes better genes?

WHAT THE FUCK!

Is that news to you?

Better nutrition can cause high IQ from **SAME GENES**.

Did you hear what I said?

You cannot make genes themselves better with nutrition. Fucking retard. Did you finish highschool?

Yes you can

I'm done with this. ETBrooD is a literal retard.

oof

I think you just revealed your lack of basic scientific knowledge

If you think about it on an evolutionary scale, how could our genome come from amoebas

Even the air we breathe impacts our genes

Everything we consume, from sun to air to food, literally everything that goes into our body impacts our genes

The only viable theory is that your genetics can be impacted during your lifetime

During and after

Your offspring will be affected

There's literally not enough time in the universe for the alternative

But random mutations and random recombination of chromosomes from each parent... they cannot be driven to benefit high IQ because "better nutrition". It's random.

You need culling of the weak for evolution to be beneficial.

Our epigenetics, yes, but I don't think that everyone having more food increases the likelihood of genes for intelligence being selected or mutating

And wealth as got rid of all culling.

@whiic explain fetal alcohol syndrome

@ETBrooD Isn't that a **DEVELOPMENTAL** disorder?

Because of?

Meaning, it doesn't go back to history and re-do the time of fertilization.

It only changes development of the fetus, but not the genes.

Damaged gene pool due to bad nutrition

Alcohol damages cells, including neurons. It doesn't change the genes

It does change the cells, yes it does

Alcoholism is heritable

"Damaged gene pool due to bad nutrition" how is that same as fetal alcohol disorder?

Same exact cause
