RE: The Myth of "Healthy Foods"

in #food7 years ago

The basic principle of toxicology is that everything is toxic. It comes down to a question of dose and duration. This is true for every substance, whether it is water or mercury, drink 6 litres of water in less than 30 minutes and you die, take a tiny amount of mercury and you die.

Sort:  

True. The dose makes the poison. But the same reasonable quantity of a given food can be "toxic" for one person and "healthy" for another. The most relevant factor here isn't dosage per se, but nutritional genetic compatibility.

Yes, I agree!
