Dietary well being

This is not a bind rune but it uses the basic shape of the bind rune and therefore the Web of Wyrd to guide to a health life style.

This shows the notable times during the day as far as food is concerned. As well as these times there are several things that should be considered.

You should eat five times a day. Every point on the bind rune base except night. The reasoning behind this is that humans are grazers. They should eat little and often, a practice that has been diluted over the centuries but still exists. How many people have elevenses and some sort of snack late afternoon.

Eat your staple every day. This may be pasta, rice, but for Northern European it is Oatmeal. The need for the staple food stuff everyday is mainly to gain energy, the body will have evolved over generations to survive on the most readily available foodstuff in the local. This can be highlighted as a contributing factor in the large number of Japanese POW's that died during the war. The radical change in diet in addition to the other stresses could have been a major factor, there were approximately 40% POW casualties in Japanese camps compared to 10% in German camps.

Keep a simple, consistent diet. This is linked again to the body's ability to process specific types of food. An example of this is vegetarians that have eaten no meat for many years have been physically sick when meat was introduced in to their diet. This was not due to a psychological, moral problem but a physical reaction to the food being rejected.

Additional general advice would be to eat 5 portions of fruit or vegetables per day and to eat your staple for breakfast.
