Food and Fitness, Or Diet in Relation to Health (Classic Reprint)

ISBN: 9780656073269
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Excerpt from Food and Fitness, or Diet in Relation to Health To a large extent health is a matter of educa tion. I have been engaged for a long series Of years in a study Of the feeding Of the live-stock of the farm, both on its scientific and practical sides, and I find that the knowledge displayed by owners Of horses, cattle, sheep, swine, and poultry is much more profound than that which applies to themselves. In relation to stock the Object of the feeder is to provide what will ensure health and a profitable return. He supplies not what an animal would choose if it could, but what he thinks is the best for his purpose. With regard to himself it is quite the reverse. He consumes not what is the best food for his system, but what pleases his palate, eating as Often and as much as he likes. Argument is futile, demonstration is hopeless, for most people insist that all things are good for their stomachs, or that one man's meat is another man's poison. The number Of deaths, between 60 and 70, of men who should live many years longer, from diseases attributable to excessive eating, or to eating improper foods, is probably greater than that which is due to the consumption Of alcohol.

Book Description
Excerpt from Eating for Health and Strength We want our lives to count for something. Failure is, to a certain extent, a disgrace. And to live the life of achievement you need energy, enthusiasm, ambition. You must have strength, vitality, endurance. And the buoyant spirits that' make play of all work. If all this is valuable, then the power behind the man or the woman, in the form of food, assumes great importance. Day by day our bodies are evolved from the food we eat. We are what we are, because of food. We are hardy, vigorous and capable or devitalized and incompetent, depending largely upon the quality of nourishment that we furnish ourselves day by day. There never was a time in the history of the world when the human diet was worse than it is at the present day.
