“Food conditions the nature of the mind. Mind guides the thinking. Thinking results in action. Actions lead to commensurate or matching results and effects. This chain of action between the food we eat and the results of our actions highlights the fact that meat eating leads to beastly actions and the concomitant evil effects.” ThinkingMindFactsActionEvilResultsConditionsEffectsEatingGuidesChainsMeatOur ActionsHighlightsMatchingBeastlyMeat Eating Author:Sathya Sai Baba
“I don't think the people today who start hearing voices, stop eating and sleeping, and run amuck are likely to get good treatment. Having more knowledge, better diagnostic capabilities, better medications with fewer side effects, can't make up for the fact that most patients are being treated by doctors, therapists, and hospitals, who are operating under constraints and incentives that reward non-treatment, non-hospitalization, non-therapy, non-follow-up, non-care. Lost to follow-up is the best outcome a health insurer can hope for.” PeopleThinkingFactsCareRunningTodayLostSidesVoiceSleepEffectsEatingDoctorsRewardsPatientHearingTreatedTherapyOutcomesTreatmentHospitalsCapabilityFewerIncentivesConstraintsTherapistsMedicationSide EffectsMore KnowledgeFollow UpHearing Voices Author:Mark Vonnegut

“The biblical passage which says of Abraham and the three visiting angels: "And He stood over them under the tree and they did eat" is interpreted by Rabbi Zusya to the effect that man stands above the angels, because he knows something unknown to them, namely, that eating may be hallowed by the eater's intention.... Any natural act, if hallowed, leads to God, and nature needs man for what no angel can perform on it, namely, its hallowing.” IfsKnowsMenNeedsMayThreeNaturalTreeEffectsEatingAngelIntentionPassagesBiblicalAbrahamVisitingRabbiGod And Nature Author:Martin Buber
“The Domino Effect could stand for anything. It could be just the simple game of the domino rocks falling off one after another, all kinds of decision we make that come back to our face.

“Health messages are simply overwhelmed, in volume and in effectiveness, by junk-food ads that often deploy celebrities or cartoon characters to great effect.

“In fact, we would know ourselves that we are not meant to be meat eaters, and we would not have allowed ourselves to become conditioned to meat eating in the first place, if the effects of meat eating were felt right away. But since heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, etc. usually take many years to develop, we are able to separate them from their cause (or contributing factors) and go on happily eating an animal-based diet.” IfsKnowsYearsFirstsHeartFactsAbleFeltCausesAnimalEffectsGoes OnDiseaseEatingCancerFactorsMeatDietsEtcMeant To BeContributingDiabetesHeart DiseaseMeat EatingOsteoporosis Author:Sharon Gannon
“One of the things that any kind of studies bring out is that the mere act of schooling - getting together, the organization involved, going to classes on time, and there're things being taught, sitting down with others with different backgrounds, chatting with them, and, sometimes when there are big barriers, eating together when there are school meals, which are big things together with a big social impact - they themselves have a major effect.” KindDifferentSometimesBigsSchoolTogetherSocialClassStudyEffectsTaughtInvolvedEatingMajorsSittingOrganizationImpactMereBackgroundsMealsBarriersBig ThingsSchoolingSitting DownChattingDifferent BackgroundsSocial ImpactEating Together Author:Amartya Sen

“• Eating disorders are addictions. You become addicted to a number of their effects. The two most basic and important: the pure adrenaline that kicks in when you're starving—you're high as a kite, sleepless, full of a frenetic, unstable energy—and the heightened intensity of experience that eating disorders initially induce. At first, everything tastes and smells intense, tactile experience is intense, your own drive and energy themselves are intense and focused. Your sense of power is very, very intense. You are not aware, however, that you are quickly becoming addicted.” FirstsTwoImportantEnergyNumbersEffectsBecomingTastePureEatingAddictionSmellFocusedIntenseKicksDisorderIntensityStarvingAdrenalineUnstableEating DisorderKitesTactileTaste And Smell Author:Marya Hornbacher
