Let me get this "straight." God has a "living prophet" on the earth today who recently endorsed taking vitamins? Right?

And this whole prophet guy thing is supposed to tell the humans of earth about how to live better lives in accordance with God. And way back when the prophet guy who got most of the revelations for the humans of earth was alive he got himself a revelation on what is wise for humans to consume?

A scant 100 and some odd years later these humans find out that there could learn things to help them not need pain pills?

"But patients are rarely offered psychological treatments for pain, Darnall says."

And humans could also "run and not be weary and walk and not faint" easier with out processing their foods?

"At the end of the study, people ate significantly more if their meals were ultra-processed—around 500 more calories per day—than they did if they were given unprocessed meals."

Yet, all we get is "take your vitamins" in the context not of wisdom for your health but to catch a ride on the other revelations which are really policy changes train?

I would hazard a guess that while Rusty The Prophet is seen as a game changer and akin to old Joe himself, he has failed epically in helping the health of the people who consider him a revealer of wisdom from God.

Seriously, Smith came against those who's "lips draw near me" but do the opposite in approaching truth.

I'm going to have to google this more when I have time.

I didn't know that there were such treatments and given our salt, sugar, fat, prescriptions, religious proscriptions world I can understand why.
