“Diet has the distinction of being the only major determinant of health that is completely under your control. You have the final say over what does and does not go into your mouth and stomach. You cannot always control the other determinants of health, such as the quality of the air you breathe, the noise you are subjected to, or the emotional climate of your surroundings, but you can control what you eat. It is a shame to squander such a good opportunity to influence your health.” – Andrew Weil, M.D. Natural Health, Natural Medicine.

The statement above outlines that diet influence health and disease.

The law of Einstein can be found as well in every cell. E= mc2
We have about 60 trillion cells and each cell is a complex and awe-inspiring miniature universe with billions of chemical reactions every minute of your life. We were so wonderfully designed by our Creator. I am still amazed by this every time I try to think of it. The sole source of energy is the food you give them.

Dr. John Potter from the University of Minnesota said” In ancient Egypt, Pliny declared that the consumption of cabbage would cure as many as eighty-seven diseases and the consumption of onions would cure twenty-eight. Garlic was considered a holy-plant. Cruciferous vegetables (cabbage and broccoli) were cultivated primarily for medicinal purposes and were used therapeutically against headaches, deafness, diarrhea ,gout and stomach disorders… The ancient Romans believed that lentils were a cure for diarrhea and conducive to an even temper. Raisins and grapes had many medicinal uses and were incorporated into oral presentations, enemas, inhalations and topical applications.”
