" the human body can subsist on very little for some time, and even beyond that, a lot less is enough than whatever is usually recommended by “experts"
Wow- if that isn't the understatement of the year!
For two years I worked as a consultant for a legal firm which helped Holocaust survivors receive German pensions for work performed in ghettos under the Nazis. The lion's share of the job was simply listening to survivors talk about their experiences.
(Sadly, I was often the first person to ever ask these elderly survivors about the Holocaust ; as their own children usually steered clear of the topic out of fear they might "trigger " the parent. In retrospect, the survivor's children were the ones who were triggered - not the other way around! )
It never ceased to amaze me that ANYONE survived the Holocaust - yet, night after night I spoke with survivors who were well into their 80s (and beyond!) who were surprisingly sound in body and mind, despite decades of starvation, zero medical care, sanitation or adequate clothing.
By all laws of nature, every one of these people should have died long ago from malnutrition, disease, kakamaimie medical experiments , despair, exposure to the elements, or injury. How did they not only survive, but outlive their contemporaries who had everything ???
Traditional Judaism teaches that one can and should seek competent medical advice for illness-but only God has the power to heal. If a doctor appears to help a patient it's only because God granted "permission" to heal.
Therefore, if a person has no natural means of sustaining or healing himself, God can do the impossible. These survivors are absolute proof of that.
You are what you drink and eat and inhale. A organism encountering the biosphere. These days supplements are available more bio available to the cells. I think survivors will supplement. Costly though..
nice to read someone who has done some real research on health, i was feeling somewhat lonely here.
i have a cousin thats a nutritionist at a hospital for patients that cant eat and i had to school her on K2 when she was telling me about adding lots of vit D to their feed. she got her degree before they figured out what K2 does and hadnt kept up
What to eat, indeed! It becomes more challenging for those concerned about their health to know what is best. We evolved from long ago ancestors who hunted and foraged for everything they ate. We are such omnivores but the land, water, skies and seas furnished our choices. Today we are accustomed to acquiring most of our food stuffs from the mainstream grocers & producers. We have natural food stores loaded with sugary, additive laden products. I know many who emphasize grass fed meats and wild caught seafood to avoid or heal from auto-immune disease, allergy, GI issues, etc. We have descended from a wild, natural world where we had to be fit to obtain food to the massive convenience of today's toxin laden foods, water, air. Supplements require an encyclopedic knowledge to safely consume.
Thank you Ray, you stated what I've told stupid doctors multiple times, on creams, ointments, rubs, patches, if you put it on your skin it is absorbed by the body, and into the bloodstream, thus into your GI tract. Voltaren rub will tear up your GI Tract with GERD. Diclofenac sodium is the main ingredient, welcome to you next chronic ACID attack. Take a peek at what to expect besides the acid. BTW NOT for Glaucoma Patients either. https://www.rxlist.com/voltaren-drug.htm OA drugs ARE AS BAD.
When you have two health conditions with opposing diets, you have to use the one that causes the least problems. And Only you can figure out which one works for you. Because 2 doctors in opposing fields will never agree. And their drugs kill.
I take some supplements my dr recommends, with the leaky gut & mold illness I only absorb a small percent of my vitamins and minerals. Recently able to cut back on some of them. I was wondering why my Walmart organic spinach was not satisfying at all, I bet I will discover it is hydroponic grown( I’m embarrassed I shop there, I’m a good distance from nearest” health food “store.

Next time you have the occasion to be incarcerated in a hospital - notice what they feed you.
Starch, carbs, dessicated tinned vegetables, wheat & gluten, and more wheat & gluten. It's almost like they WANT you to be ill.
I marvel at how bad hospital food is - in a place which is supposed to help, not harm you.
