A Quote by Benjamin Franklin

A temperate Diet frees from Diseases; such are seldom ill, but if they are surprised with Sickness, they bear it better, and recover sooner; for most Distempers have their Original from Repletion.

If there is anything unhealthy in your reactions, just bear in mind that sickness is the means by which an organism frees itself from what is alien; so one must simply help it to be sick, to have its whole sickness and to break out with it, since that is the way it gets better.

Rainer Maria Rilke

I think that the American diet is a very large part of the reason we're spending 2.3 trillion dollar per year on health care in this country. 75% of that money goes to treat chronic diseases, preventable chronic diseases, most of those are linked to diet.

Michael Pollan

The Caribbean is the region in the Americas worst affected by the epidemic of NCDs. These diseases are responsible for over two- thirds of deaths, much sickness and ill health, resulting in an unsustainable burden on our fragile economies.

Freundel Stuart

When a man of normal habits is ill, everyone hastens to assure him that he is going to recover. When a vegetarian is ill (which fortunately very seldom happens), everyone assures him that he is going to die, and that they told him so, and that it serves him right. They implore him to take at least a little gravy, so as to give himself a chance of lasting out the night

George Bernard Shaw

A good diet is the most powerful weapon we have against disease and sickness.

T. Colin Campbell

The sooner the doctrine of original sin disappears, the better it is for theology.

Georgia Harkness

The child was diseased at birth, stricken with a hereditary ill that only the most vital men are able to shake off. I mean poverty-the most deadly and prevalent of all diseases.

Eugene O'Neill

Fitness is essential, and so is diet, but sleep is the most important of them all. It helps our body to recover from all the wear and tear.

Sooraj Pancholi

Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.

Democritus

Some say vegetarianism is an alternative diet, but it is the original diet, the plan designed by God.

James Marcus

As a believer in the free market, the sooner you have people with a job - the better chance they have a job, the sooner they are employed - the sooner they become consumers. And the sooner they become consumers, the sooner they become deciders about their own health care decisions.

Carlos Lopez-Cantera

To be unable to bear an ill is itself a great ill.

Wilfred Bion

Accustom yourself to that which you bear ill, and you will bear it well.

Seneca the Younger

This [Scientology] is useful knowledge. With it the blind again see, the lame walk, the ill recover, the insane become sane and the sane become saner. By its use the thousand abilities Man has sought to recover become his once more.

L. Ron Hubbard

Better suffer ill, then doe ill. [Better suffer ill, than do ill.]

George Herbert

It’s not the plant-based foods that will make you ill, it’s the meat and the liquid meat (i.e.: dairy) that can lead to sickness and death. Consider this: If your food had a face or a mother (or comes from something that did), then it also has varying amounts of artery-clogging, plaque-plugging, and cholesterol-hiking animal protein, animal cholesterol, and animal fat. These substances are the building blocks of the chronic diseases that plague Western society.
