    3. Do ya'll ever think...when reading the lists that people make up of eating all these foods that grow out of the ground, on bushes, trees, and vines, that what God put on the earth, for Adam and Eve, would have kept PERFECT BODIES working forever ? It is as simple as that. But, we don't have perfect bodies...(thanks to you know who that changed that) also, our soil, air, water, nothing is the same,We just have to use common sense and do the best we can. I eat all those too...some of them I can't afford too often, since I now live where Ican't grow anything. But I do worry about so many shipped things.Did ya'll see on the news, the little girl who was with her mother in Walmart, and leaned over, into the big wooden box of watermelons, and was bitten by a poison scorpion? She got along just fine...they caught it...doctors said it is only found in southern most Mexico.I try to eat a banana, an orange, (or juice) or a white potato, daily, for the potassium,.thats the way those foods help (not control) blood pressure.Keeps us from depleting our potassium. Most B/P meds now, have an added ingredient to prevent loss. No two people react the same to anything.My sister, in Texas, is almost 85...she has all her teeth (except some wisdom) and can eat anything.I mean anything...I enjoy watching her...eat pecan halves, raw foods, anything. My mother and older brother (that died in Fed at 88) was like that.My other brother, and me, have always had stomach troubles, and allergies, dry skin problems, B/P, bronical, and other problems,..don't know why, unless the way children eat, might make a difference. I have an 81 year old cousin...who still travels all over the world, with her church group...walking all over Ireland, England, Italy, anywhere. She has no arthritis that has ever been mentioned...nor does she require any prescription meds...just takes vitamins and supplements and eats very little, to my knowledge.Goes with a bottle of water and lemon, every time I see her.I would truthfully say...I think, the way we live, our being happy and content, or not, and the kind of work, has a lot to do with our health. I know, I ruined my back, lifting and working, making a living for my kids, and I know now, I could have not done a lot of what I did. . I wish all good things for all of you. Stella

    3. hey stella girl and all..... I grew up in southern Illinois and probably ate or was exposed to every kind of bacteria, virus, or varmit that we can think of and now people have to go through a ritual to get sanitized after touching a shopping cart. I guess some people are just more susceptible to some germs. I sure do want to be like those relatives that keep their own parts 'til the end..... paulette in sw fla usa and I don't want any foods that have been genetically manipulated either......I am afeared they might manipulate some of my genes On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 10:08 AM, Stella Roper <busmar1852@webtv.net> wrote: > Do ya'll ever think...when reading the lists that people make up of > eating all these foods that grow out of the ground, on bushes, trees, > and vines, that what God put on the earth, for Adam and Eve, would have > kept PERFECT BODIES working forever ?
