Once, there was an inherent belief, so ingrained in society that it didnt even have to be said. The idea that man was intrinsically connected to nature was common sense; medicine men taught thatb man should spend time out-doors in the elements to maintain health.
we've seen through observation that our current scientific thinking that nutrition and health is simply a matter of getting the right vitamins, minerals, and chemical compounds is wrong. We need other things that science cannot even detect. But it does know a healthy diet and activity is the best medicine for a healthy life. The more man made pharmaceuticals a person turns to, the more they have to take to alleviate the side effects of other medications.
As we study all the catastrophic environmental disasters we are facing from past environmentalist activism and knee-jerk reactions to observations without understanding and study, we should be exceedingly leery of any suggestion such fools make currently or in the future; they are the reason much of our planet is so polluted, a fact they cannot accept because they cannot admit the failure of their ideas.
But that should not prevent us from looking back at our grandfathers, our great grandfathers, the generations before us stretching back in time that didnt live as disposable consumers, and seeing what worked, and how to live in harmony with nature as they did.
