How evolve helps humans

Health and Medicine

Evolutionary principles are increasingly applied in health and medicine to understand disease mechanisms and improve treatments. For example, the concept of evolutionary medicine helps explain why certain diseases persist despite modern treatments, such as the persistence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria due to evolutionary pressure. Additionally,

understanding human evolution can provide insights into genetic predispositions to certain diseases and guide personalized medicine approaches. Evolutionary insights also aid in vaccine development by anticipating how pathogens might evolve
