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
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
No it's not.
Yes it is
If you only eat ice cream during your lifetime
Inheritable genetic defects and developmental issues are different.
And you then have kids
Your kids are more likely to develop illnesses
Alcoholism is inheritable in two ways
1: you witness your parents drinking, which encourages you to (not genetic)
2: Your mother drinked in the whom, which essentially means you've already drank alcohol (again, not genetic)
There could also be some genes that make one more prone to addiction in general as a reason 3.
