Abstract
This paper presents a reflection within the framework of the central theorem and its critics by focusing on three nutritional patterns in animals: the tendency for satiety, the tendency for fast/easy food, and the tendency for food stimulants. All of these patterns have greater beneficial effects for reproduction than for health and longevity. These and other instinctive nutritional patterns of behaviour may be important for a better understanding of human nutritional ethology.
