Look away from the body
Most of us give a fair amount of thought to how to care for the body, and we frequently see theories advertising how best to do this—theories that often change. Certain theories seem to be useful for a while, then other theories gain credence.
I remember as a child there was a definite theory about food, and those who didn’t adhere to the seeming physiological “rule” had problems. Later, that fear faded away, as did the instances of problems, and I’ve never heard it talked about since.
A friend of mine from another country once expressed concern over the consequences of eating a certain type of dessert following a certain type of food for the main course. I had never heard of such a concern and had—along with most North Americans, I’m sure—frequently enjoyed such a combination with no ill effects whatsoever.
