Hunters-gatherers were generally more physically fit and had better teeth than agricultural people. By having a small percentage of the population farm, the rest of a society did not have to take on the hard work of farming and we begin to see sharp increase in obesity. Also, since humans were changing to a more carbohydrate, high sugar diet that is associated with farming, we notice that oral hygiene begins to suffer. There are more than 700 different types of bacteria live in the mouth. The bacteria in a human mouth feasts on carbohydrates and sugars and this bacteria can cause bleeding gums which gives the bacteria direct access to the bloodstream. Issues such as heart disease, gum disease, and heart attacks can be directly tied to poor oral hygiene.00Finally, being nomadic, walking, and hunting on a daily basis impacted our bodies greatly.

When people are living together they share germs. The increased likelihood of illness, as well as the types of sicknesses contracted, become major problems. Some of the diseases people now got from living in a permanent settlement are smallpox, cholera, influenza, and polio. These diseases are truly deadly, and can wipe out a group of people if they do not have a way to treat it or keep it from spreading.00Disease among people and animals is another concern.

We do not usually focus on some of the cons that naturally arise along with the benefits. For example, one problem with farming is that you are very vulnerable on the weather and environment around you. Droughts, famine, plant disease, and pests are also something new that must be dealt with in these new agricultural societies. 00When discussing the Neolithic Revolution, we often focus on the benefits of the start of civilization.

There are of course many more that were not mentioned here. I thought it interesting to emphasize the disadvantages, since we are still struggling with many of them today, gathering in dense populations as we do. Disease and food quality and abundance are still major worries, although we are finding ways to deal with both issues. 00These are just some examples of the cons of the change from the hunter-gatherer society to an agricultural society.
