S for Science.
When did humans learn about vitamins, nutrients, and minerals? How did humans, "get by" before they knew about all the vitamins and nutrients they needed?
I'm sure it fits in biology somewhere.
I know the Lord provides.
How would an atheist say it got done?
So are you saying that our food knowledge and biological know how is all a sham or not needed??
I am really confused as to what your point is or you driving motivation about asking this question. Which is pretty damn easy.
We developed our knowledge over time, especially the last century and not all "got by". In fact if you had the tiniest bit of history you would know that history is rife with examples of how humans did not always "get by".
Are you trying to do a religion vs atheist battle here with a sure fire "Gotcha!" or something?
No, I am not trying to do a battle. I'm just curious that's all.
People believe different things that's all. Nothing wrong with that. It's a free country.
Today how does the average Joe know that they are getting all the vitamins and nutrients they need on a daily or monthly or yearly basis? I doubt everyone goes through some daily blood test to measure these amounts in their system.
Physicals are only done every so often and your body is amazing. It can go without certain nutrients for quite a long time before adversity strikes.
How does one know they are eating the correct variety or is not missing something?
How does one know they are getting an optimal amount of this nutrient or an optimal amount of that mineral/vitamin.
With the advent of pro-biotics, how does one know they are getting an optimal amount of the organisms in good probiotics.
