Autoimmune Disease
Our immune systems are geared to fight invading organisms that could otherwise harm us. Bacteria, viruses and parasites are often dealt with in short order. Many organisms that could make us ill are destroyed by our immune systems before we even know they are attacking us. |

Our Diet Culture
Especially in Western culture, we are faced with diets that boarder on, if they do not surpass, gluttony. Television commercials tell us that it's good to be full. Food becomes a psychological issue for thousands, whether they eat too much or too little, or eat too much and then purge it. And all of this when thousands of humans are suffering from malnutrition and starvation every day. |
