Guest guest Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Tev, don't mind at all, and generally Natural Hygiene separtes them out as elements or factors of health. best, Bob rawfood , tev treowlufu <goraw808> wrote: > Thanks for your reply, Bob. > > I hope you won't mind if I choose to consider water and > air as food. > > regards, > > tev > > > Main Entry: food > Pronunciation: 'füd > Function: noun > Usage: often attributive > Etymology: Middle English fode, from Old English fOda; akin to Old High German fuotar food, fodder, Latin panis bread, pascere to feed > 1 a : material consisting essentially of protein, carbohydrate, and fat used in the body of an organism to sustain growth, repair, and vital processes and to furnish energy; also : such food together with supplementary substances (as minerals, vitamins, and condiments) b : inorganic substances absorbed by plants in gaseous form or in water solution > 2 : nutriment in solid form > 3 : something that nourishes, sustains, or supplies > > Bob Farrell <rjf2@t...> wrote:Hi Tev.. > > I'd probably call them Elements of Health, or essential nutrients, > rather than food, per se.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 And if those things made me ill, I probably wouldn't miss them either, Mary! My mom has had to cut out some foods for health reasons, too, and she says it doesn't bother her because she remembers how sick they made her about 5 years ago -- makes sense to me! Glad you've found what works for you. Audrey S. On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 6:31 AM, Mary Gibson <gibsonm wrote: > > > I think we have quite varied views on raw food here.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Certain parts of the year. I do enjoy eating very much and some raw food can be made delicious. I will re-post one of my favorite hummus recipes. My favorite food is artichokes, these cannot be eaten raw, so i could never go raw all the way!
