This project examines the origins and development of dairying in early human societies, particularly in Mongolia. It utilizes advanced genomics and proteomics techniques to investigate the relationship between gut microbiomes, lactose digestion, and the genetic ability to digest milk in nomadic herders, addressing the…
Summary:
Dairy products are nutritional resources of global economic importance, and their emergence in prehistory marks a major shift in human dietary ecology.
However, basic questions regarding the origins and role of dairying in early human societies remain poorly understood.
It is now known that adult hypolactasia (the inability to digest milk sugar) is an ancestral human trait, and that relatively few human populations have genetic variants that allow continued milk digestion into adulthood…
