The Animal Laws

City children have no idea about farm animals and thus do not know about the animal laws. In spite of their knowledge about modern drugs, they know very little about animal laws.

When an animal is sick, it will refuse to eat. By fasting, it creates within its own body, a new biochemical state that will assist it in recovering. For human being, the opposite is true. When we are sick, we often eat food that are brought to us. By consuming more meat, deep fried food and oily food, we are giving more work to the body. Instead of resting the body and giving it time to cleanse itself, we are actually burdening it even more.

To imitate the laws of the animals, we should fast by limiting ourselves to drinks such as grape juice which contains tartaric acid or cranberry juice which contains citric, malic, quinic and benzoic acids or apple juice which contains malic acid. Now, 2000 years later, modern science is telling us that we should take in lots of fruits to prevent illnesses.

We learned that hen tucks in her beak into her feathers so that when she sleeps, she will breathe in warm fresh air. The fox sleeps by covering her face with her bushy tail so that the air it breathe will be warm. Horses stand with their back to the wind. These animals do not get colds. So, should you sleep with your window open and your head underneath the open window? Not unless you want to get a cold and ask for a medical leave.
