The idea that one can get proper nutrition from diet alone is largely a myth

[ketsugo]

I came in late here? Are we discussing nutrition? Or religion?

 

[gunslinger]

It was supposed to be about nutrition but it seems some people have to jump on anything that looks like it could be religion. This thread went down hill fast.

 

[MatthewC]

Could have sworn the Bible (Genesis?) was against eating the fruit. If I had to choose between scurvey and free will....... hand over the peaches baby!

 

[NutNut]

Genesis 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat

I'm not religious I'd say iy says the opposite Mathew.

Vitamin b-12 is one the older folks have a hard time geting enuff of from diet alone and especialy diabetics who take metformin. SO yea supplements in certain situations is needin above diet alone. But for the majority yes Diet will do the job.

You can definitely eat perfectly. Most don't so supplements are the next best choice. I don't see how eating perfectly is impossible at all...

Look Im not philosophizing about the Bible, Im saying you show me some proof anyone 'human' ever lived to be a thousand, not just someones story about people that did.
Bible talks about a lot of things, and they are NOT all true, faith or no faith there is not 100% truth in the Bible, and this had nothing to do with the Bible, and it has everything to do with proper nutrition.


And Gixx I always loved that quote from Smith in the Matrix.

Side note: Bible mentions people being 10ft tall, do we see them, no, have they existed YES, are there skeletons and bones proving it YES. One can not prove the age one lived to (1000 years) but imo the Bible has never been PROVEN to not be true. And how about them elongated skulls? The govt never addresses them either.

It's damn near impossible to find clothes, not to mention building enough muscle to fill out such a long frame.

I do agree with the point this artivle makes about the food we consume today. I truthfully believe that even the raw foods we eat today do not contain as many nutrients as they did 100 years ago. the idea is not that far fetched. However, I've always been skeptical of the RDA. When's the last time that was "updated" to reflect the current food situation? I think the average person needs more vitamin C and calcium than the RDA suggests. Those are just 2 examples, but I think the whole thing needs to be revamped. It would be much better if the RDA had several different categories based on your age and where you live. Because many people fail to realize that your health has a lot to do with where you live.

You forgot about the next part where it talks about NOT eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil
