 Today our knowledge of food and what it does for our bodies is far more advanced than that of the ancient.
Now we know about vitamins and how they help in the growth of a particular part of our bodies. There are on
the market all kinds of vitamin pills which one can take to make up for one’s lack of certain important things which
are needed for normal health. Of course, if we eat well and properly, the food that we eat will take care of our
bodies without these pills and so there is no need to take any kinds of vitamin pills unless our doctor tells us that
our bodies are short of something which can be supplied by them.
Generally speaking, everything we eat does some good to our bodies, but if we eat too much of one kind of
food and pay no attention to others, we may have too much of one kind of chemical substance and not enough of
others. Then, we may be in trouble. We are often told that we must eat some meat at each meal in order to get
the necessary protein. That is only partly true, for proteins are not found only in meat. We can also get them from
some vegetables. The best advice about what to eat is that we should eat all kinds of food but never too much of
any.
