Abstract

Although modern human genome remained relatively constant, the profound changes in its environment has been appeared. Genome are needed time to adapt these changes and at this point, the discordance leed the problem which have high mortality, morbidity, so-called “diseases of civilisation”. Some of the main changes occurred in environment are daily lifestyle conditions and dietary habits. These changes has started with industrial revolution and hastened with 20th century. If the environmental changes is accepted to continue, it is clear to understand that “diseases of civilisation” remain as a serious public health problem in front of us. This problem is not only for industrialized Western civilitasion but also for our country that continue to industrialize.

Özet

Modern insanın genetik yükü aynı kalmasına rağmen, çevresinde başdöndürücü bir değişim ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu değişime ayak uydurmak için zamana ihtiyacı olan genetik yük, çevre ile uyumsuzluk gösterdiği için ortaya “uygarlık hastalıkları” olarak tanımlanabilecek mortalite ve morbiditesi yüksek, tedavi maliyetleri son derece ağır rahatsızlıklar ortaya çıkmıştır. Çevresel değişimin asıl sorumlularından iki tanesi günlük yaşam tarzı ve beslenme değişiklikleridir. Bu değişim sanayi devrimi ile başlamış ve 20. yüzyıl ile hız kazanmıştır. Değişimin devam ettiği kabul edilirse “uygarlık hastalıkları”nın da bir süre daha ciddi bir toplum sağlığı sorunu olarak karşımızda duracağı açıktır. Bu sorun gelişmesini tamamlamış batı ülkeleri kadar, halen gelişmekte olan ülkemiz için de ciddiyetini korumaktadır.
