Right food enables a person to refuse from medicine because it becomes medicine by itself. In many ways the curative action of food is caused by its taste. Since oldest times there are six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, burning and astringent.

Sweet taste is the strongest as for its curative activity on the organism. It strengthens the body, promotes digestion, cures wounds and helps prolong life. Food with sweet taste is especially useful for children, old people and weak people. But eating a lot of sweet food is harmful for your health, because it can make you fat and sick.

To stay alive our body needs energy, materials to build and regenerate its cells, and last but not the least, the microelements, which are vital for metabolism processes. If we want our body to function normally, we must know how to satisfy its nutritional needs, which have been already well recognized.

The essentials are as follows:

The amount of energy, or the calories, that we consume, must correspond to its actual expenditure. We must maintain our weight close to the ideal.

Our daily food ration must be diverse, not to interrupt the metabolism processes at some stages.

We should take our meals at fixed time evenly distributed during the day.

Our body must be provided with all the vitamins, fat acids and amino acids it needs.
