Have you read The Comfort Crisis? You might enjoy it. Essentially says our ancestors were all pro athlete level fitness, moving 25-50 miles a day, essentially fasting all the time. And that is what our mind is optimized for.

Personally, I put myself into the wilderness every quarter for 3+ days of no phone, fasting and sleeping on a tarp to reset dopamine. Everything is better whenI return.
