Our dining table is also our medicine table. A medicine that you ingest has a beneficial aspect. If instead of taking a useful medicine you use an inappropriate medicine, it will create problems.

Food is not so intense in its actions, but medicines are very concentrated for specific functions, and in very small quantities they can affect us.

It would be very useful if we knew the effects of specific foods and if we were to eat appropriate foods according to our condition.
