why the ancient egyptians got fat and sick there's a video on youtube about that has millions of views claiming that it was due to carbohydrates i debate that and i do not believe it was carbohydrates that made the ancient egyptians fat and sick though i don't think the wheat in their diet contributed to their health what we do know very clearly and what has been left out of some of these appraisals of the ancient egyptians apparent decline in decrepitude and chronic illness and heart disease is that they were probably some of the first people to modernize or to widely use seed oils
