DIET and DISEASE - best quote ever

Hi,

I am now getting confused with some negative remarks relating to the quotes.

These are just statements of thought and not facts.

I know medicine is needed, however I find laughter is a good medicine, yet not a fact.

Thanks for the quotes, :lol:

Roy.

My favourite (Pythagoras, I think, but I could be wrong) is:

ABSTAIN FROM BEANS :shock: :lol:

The earliest surgical interventions I know of are healed trepanning wounds from the Mesolithic/Neolithic - about 7000 years ago, I think - I'll check. Trepanning is when you make a hole in the skull to relieve pressure/let bad spirits out ( :wink: ). The only anaesthetics/disinfectants/painkillers they had were plant based, and they only had flint blades. And the patient survived. Not bad, huh?

Romans 14:1-23

As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. ...

Reads like a biblical version of "Eat to your meter" in my opinion.
