-Anthony Burgess
Quite some time ago, about 8 or 9 years ago, I was doing a lot of research about food, due to my lack of magnesium and that of the whole family, plus my mother's osteoarthritis problem.
Of course that research led me to know a lot more about everything, including anaemia, and lack of vitamins. I didn't and don't suffer from any disease, but I like to do research.
And when I was asked about what kind of food I would eat until I died, all this information came to my mind and the first thing I thought of was that meat is necessary, but other foods are also necessary, meat without vitamin C is the same as nothing.
Therefore and without hesitation the first type of food I would eat until I die is fruit, I love fruit.
They are very complete, they have all kinds of vitamins and minerals necessary for the body and many of them also contain iron like dried fruits, like grapes or dried figs, so this would be an ideal type of food.
But I also thought about the things I like to eat and matched them with what is necessary for my body to be healthy. It's not a question of just eating what I like, but trying not to shorten my life.
That's why I think fruits have a bit of everything, and also the glucose is natural, although those who are diabetic should take care of that.
But those of us who are low in glucose have no problem. The bad thing in life is white sugar, refined sugar and God knows what else they put in it.
So I thought, there are two food groups that are more necessary, meat and dairy. Dairy also has proteins necessary for life and if I have to choose for taste, that is to say to eat until I die something that I like more than other things, it is dairy and its derivatives.
It's not that I don't eat meat, but I don't eat too much, and if I don't eat I don't suffer, I don't even notice it.
Since I can't eat more than two types of food and I don't have any ailment, nor do I suffer from any illness, if I make these foods compatible I think I'll be fine, as long as I eat the right ones so that I don't lack anything my body needs.
I am not a person who eats large quantities of food, especially sweets, I don't like them. I prefer salty foods. It's all in the balance of food, but I also thought that those years of life will not be torture.
Surely something will be lacking in nutrients, such as those derived from meat and legumes. But I can only consume two types of food as if I live on an island that only has that, I must adapt.
And when I die and have another life, then I will be born with all this knowledge and much more on various subjects and I will know it before my time, so I will make much better use of my second life.
I already made the mistakes in the first, so now it's easier. It will be an extension of this one, but with more youth, I will focus on doing what I have left to do and enjoy it twice as much.
Maybe I'll make new mistakes, welcome, but I think I'll learn faster from them.
If at the end of eating those two foods I die, well, I'll think about the life to come, may it be much better than this one, I'm already hiring it. But may I never miss fruit in any life.
Thanks always @galenkp for these weekend topics, it is always interesting to choose one and give our opinion.
I send you all a big hello and have a great weekend. See you soon.
