Counsels on Health - Ellen G. White

desires them to realize that pain is the result of
transgression.
Daily abused, the digestive organs cannot do
their work well. A poor quality of blood is made,
and thus, through improper eating, the whole
machinery is crippled. Give the stomach less to do.
It will recover if proper care is shown in regard to
the quality and quantity of food eaten.
Many eat too rapidly. Others eat at one meal
varieties of food that do not agree. If men and
women would only remember how greatly they
afflict the soul when they afflict the stomach, and
how deeply Christ is dishonored when the stomach
is abused, they would deny the appetite and thus
give the stomach opportunity to recover its healthy
action. While sitting at the table we may do
medical missionary work by eating and drinking to
the glory of God.
