If you think what we have in our food now is bad consider they used DDT and arsnic around their crops. It was a common practice to till a 100lb bag of arsnic into the soil before building a house to keep the rats and insects away.<br />When the flu hit doctors didn't know what to do. Many doctors and nurses died along with their patients. Here's their prevention measures for the time:<br /><br />1. Wash inside nose with soap and water each night and morning<br /><br />2. Force yourself to sneeze night and morning, then breathe deeply<br /><br />3. Do not wear a muffler; a wooly scarf that was popular in those days.<br /><br />4. Take quick walks regularly and walk home from work<br /><br />5. Eat plenty of porridgeDemeurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01935263659097273535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-12255867142191297942009-05-01T14:56:00.000-07:002009-05-01T14:56:00.000-07:00In spite of all our modern advantages that you men...In spite of all our modern advantages that you mention, I think those earlier generations had some advantages too. This is a generalization, but most of them were in better shape than us. They did physical labor all day, and whatever food they ate was "real," not processed and refined and full of chemicals. And I think antibiotic overuse has wrecked the natural immunity of most of us. Even if you don't take antibiotics, you're probably getting them in some of your food.<br /><br />I'm not trying to romanticize earlier generations or say they had it "better" than us; but I think we've lost certain benefits that we used to have.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-66894874613065903042009-05-01T10:50:00.000-07:002009-05-01T10:50:00.000-07:00That's the problem.

The result being overpopulating the planet because we whip mother nature faster than she can kill us off. <br /><br />I'm not sure this is a good thing.
