I love everything you have written here!

How interesting about the dentistry/local diet comparison. Makes one stop and really consider this observation and what it is teaching us.

Sort:  

<3 <3 thanks! yes... that's hopefully what it does for many. we have forgotten these simple truths: local indigenous diets do not cause cavities and dental disease... we need to look at the point at which dental disease started to become the norm and question the diet... the "mainstream healing professions" (with well-intentioned humans, don't get me wrong), have a horrible premise, and that is to treat disease, rather than to cultivate health... we must change that.

Absolutely agree!

One observation I read years ago, and it stuck with me, was that (at the time) every 20 years or so a new dis-ease would manifest, basically coinciding with a shift in how humans grew, prepared and ate food. An example used was when people began using tin cans to store harvests.

I found it fascinating. And scary.
