Rampant obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, etc. are
postindustrial problems. They didn't start 10,000 years ago when
agriculture began. They began recently when industrialization made
highly calorie-dense food readily and cheaply available.

Raising the price of grains to the equivalent of $100/lb for 100 years
would probably demonstrate that.
