It has been said that an inscription was found on an Egyptian pyramid dating back thousands of years BC. It reads:
"A man lives on one quarter of what he eats. On the other three quarters, lives his physician."
The rise in obesity and obesity related conditions such as adult-onset diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease and various cancers to name but a few, should really come as no surprise. The western world is fighting a losing battle with food. Why is this? Well, there are plenty of organisations (charities, junk food and pharmaceutical companies, and the governments who receive donations from them) with a vested interest in keeping people unhealthy. Think about it. If folk actually made the effort to fast on a regular basis, they would drastically improve their health and many would no longer need to take medication. If you are the head of a cancer charity, junk-food chain or large pharmaceutical organisation receiving vast sums in donations and/or making billions per annum, this would not be good news.
Time to wise up people.
