The Human Ecological Niche and Modern Health

Ancestral Health Society

The Ancestral Health Society fosters collaboration among scientists, healthcare professionals and laypersons who study and communicate about health from an evolutionary perspective to develop solutions to our modern health challenges.


The society’s primary role is to host the Ancestral Health Symposium, which is produced by a hobbyist volunteer model, utilizing the strengths of various individuals who proudly live an ancestral lifestyle. This model helps keep the cost of attending the symposium low.


In addition, the society plans to host a peer-reviewed journal for publication of experimental and clinical research and theory on human health from the evolutionary/ancestral perspective. This journal is in the process of being founded.
