Humans have a body, a soul and a spirit. All three are similutaneously superimposed, a triad. Soul is the psyche or psychological with its mind, emotions and will. The human spirit has an intuition, a conscience and it communes with God and nature. Our diet effects our body directly on the biochemically level and it effects our psyche through the body. The human spirit is effected by food only through the soul and even then very little. Thus whereas food and nutrition has a very small effect on our human spirit, it has a large effect on our human soul and a major controlling effect on the biochemistry of the body. The roots of illness can grow from the body to the soul or from the soul to the body and spirit, or from the spirit to the soul and body.
All religions of the world deal with food in some way either directly or indirectly. The Bible has fasting and foods as part of its heritage. Have you noticed how food and nutrition might effect you physicially or psychologically? If so give us some feedback on how you think your diet effects you body and soul?
