S01E01-Spirit of curiosity Artificial and natural curiosity

    • Ciência

You are what you eat.. Or are you? According to one leading nutritionist the ideal diet must avoid fat at all costs unless of course you are following a ketogenic diet. And how about his estimed colleague who swears by the hunter gatherer diet. Which doesn’t bode well for those of us who live in cities…

Not to mention another eminent physician who prones the egg-based diet

And I could go on.

But to come to the point all these intellectuals, trained by the same method in our best faculties, and with the same facts to hand, do no reach the same conclusions. And if it’s obvious in the medical field, it is the same for ecology, economy and of course theology where doctors of the faith fight over their interpretation of the same sacred texts.
