Brilliant Giriji There is no difference between food; the plus and minus are in the contents of the food, which can determine the Gunas and the 7 generations" DNAs. Food difference is the counterbalance in a marital life; so loving and marrying anyone, ends abruptly because Gunas vie war with. The work concept is forgotten, the diseases enter into the body; and the doctors think deeply to advise you; so they say why don't you eat wheat?; the greed on Rice, eating endlessly, forgetting the wiping of the heated calories, tended the diseases; so when fed which is not tasty . to the buds, and may take a long time to accustom, will be food to eat less and to forget the tastes, roams around in the air or land, burning the calories. Health can be maintained by right food as well as by wrong food taken in small quantities. Food has no blemish; only the mind of the individual. TTE and tablets can render wonders ,only when working consciously. KR IRS 28123
