Nutrition and God’s Original Diet

Whether therefore, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31 NKJV

When God created the world, He put in place everything essential to sustain life and for the happiness of mankind. This included God’s original diet that was best for them – fruits, grains, nuts and seeds and the Tree of Life. After sin God removed their access to the Tree of Life and in its’ place He added to their diet – vegetables.
