Does anyone find the information in Bare'syth 1:29 compelling to eat a plant based diet? I am in my 4th year of eating a plant based diet with amazing health benefits. I rarely get sick anymore, knee and joint pain gone, eyesight has been healed to 20/20. I have been wearing glasses since I was 10 and last year at age 57, I got to take 'wears corrective lenses' off the drivers license. I don't need any corrective lenses at all for either near or far sightedness. I did ask Yah for some help with my vision as I was tired of losing my glasses so maybe it was a combo of asking for help and plant based eating?

What do you all think? Any other plant based eater's out there in the family?

For what it's worth, I do recall a speaker at the "Distinguished Speakers" series whose lecture I attended years ago, who was an expert on health and longevity. One of the groups he studied for their longevity was the Seventh Day Adventists, whose diet was mostly plant-based, probably based on what you cited. So maybe there is something to a mostly plant-based diet for a long temporal life, and considering your experiences, perhaps relatively disease-free, too. Of course now, a temporal lifespan that reaches well past 2033 on the Roman Empire calendar is moot for all but those who will survive The Tribulation with their mortal lives intact.
Ha Shem? I'm kind of fond of Ha Shemp, Ha Larry, and Ha Moe myself. And the earlier shorts with Ha Curly.
