My good friend & neighbor Bob called me with a reference to the Old Testament, Daniel Chapter 1 Verses 1 to 21. As I read this story I was amazed. It was about smart children being prepared to empress the King. While there, they were fed wine and the King’s meat. Daniel asked that four of the children be allowed to eat Pulse (Legumes and vegetables) and water instead of the meat and wine. These four were well nourished, smarter than the rest and looked good. Is this a foretelling of epigenetics? We now know our bodies are influenced by what we eat. Where they early Vegans?
