Tidbits of knowledge on a variety of subjects

Nutrition

Prevention is better than cure, they say. Even if the quote, attributed to Hypocrates: "let your food be your first medicine" is apocryphal, the idea remains no less relevant. 

A healthy diet, by definition, is one that should keep us in good health. The modernity of the question arises from the plethora of foods of all kinds and origins permanently accessible through the magic of the globalization of trade.


Hidden secrets

Knowledge, like plants, must be cultivated. Whether it is a "grandmother's or witch's" recipe, it isn't insignificant to note that ancient and modern knowledge, empirical knowledge passed down from generation to generation since the dawn of time and current scientific discoveries, as a general rule corroborate each other.


Way of life

"Feeding oneself" is not limited to the selection of foods, in quality and quantity, even if that is already a good start. The dietary gesture must, if it aims for well-being, be integrated into a healthy lifestyle. And even if this term may sound a little off-putting, it is not about austerity but about harmonization.


Let’s put our feet in our mouths

Strangely enough, since the Age of Enlightenment we are supposed to be governed by reason, and in our hyper-connected world we are supposed to be "better informed than ever"... However, in everyday life, between preconceived ideas, advertising speeches and "information" distilled by various and varied lobbies, we have an irremediable tendency to just let ourselves "trust"... Call for order or critical thinking , let's put our feet in our mouths.
