As hunter-gatherer peoples began to be replaced by agrarian societies, motives for the consumption of spices began to change. Among settled societies, spices were the source of flavorings and colorings that could be used to augment the more monotonous diets based on a restricted number of crops. Also, in order to establish food security, these societies began to store the plants they grew or animals they killed. Drying of food was one solution, as was the use of the refrigerant effect of the low temperatures found at higher altitudes and latitudes.

However, until recent times, the desiccation and freezing of food was not a viable option for those living in hot, humid climates; these societies discovered chemical preservation, in the form of salt and spices. As the former was only available in certain areas spices were often the only other option to protect food from insect infestation and microbial putrefaction.

We now know that many of the strongly flavoured phytochemicals which give plants protection against insect and microbial attack are the same compounds that "preserve" our bodies, by protecting us against degenerative diseases.

Today spices are consumed in much greater quantity and variety in warm, humid countries than in colder climates. India and Thailand have the highest consumption of spices; the warm Mediterranean countries follow somewhat behind these and other Eastern countries but are ahead of the United States. Chilly Scandinavian countries have the lowest spice consumption of all. Moreover, the importance of spices in helping to prevent chronic degenerative disease can be seen to correspond to the varying levels of spice utilization that occurs across different temperature zones. Cold countries -- typically the most developed countries -- tend to have much higher incidences of chronic degenerative diseases when compared to hotter regions.

The dearth of spices in the diets of those of us living in most Western countries means that we are depriving our bodies of the important compounds that have, since time immemorial, been used by our physiological and homeostatic mechanisms to protect us from many diseases. We need to consume lots of spices on a daily basis as they can make us feel better, think better, age more slowly, and help us to resist the onslaught of scourges like cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and other chronic degenerative disorders.
