Thrifty Gene Hypothesis is a biological model that attributes the susceptibility to obesity and type 2 diabetes in modern human populations to evolutionary adaptations. It was first introduced in 1962 by American geneticist James V. Neel to explain the evolutionary basis of diabetes.Layla Brassington vd., “Integrating the Thrifty Genotype and Evolutionary Mismatch Hypotheses to Understand Variation in Cardiometabolic Disease Risk,” Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health 12, no. 1 (2024): 214, er
