[quote]Actually tobacco is 'natural,' yet Not Good! Arsenic is also natural, and definitely Not Good!" It is obvious that these things are not good for us (yet some people still choose to smoke).
What may not be as obvious is that fructose, a "natural" sugar found in fruit can be just as harmful when not used correctly: too much at once, with sugar added, any and all fruit juices, late at night before bed, and even throughout the day unless paired with a substantial amount of protein.[/quote]
As we get everything from Earth, all things may be described as 'natural'. But we mean 'natural' in another sense while referring to food. Here 'natural' means 'suitable to humans'. Insects are natural food to lizards but not to humans. Meat is more natural to tiger than to humans. Let us define 'natural' in this way while discussing proper food habits.
