Guest guest Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 When it comes to humans, what do we mean when something is deemed essential? The answer is a substance is deemed essential if the human body cannot exist without it, and this substance or entity is only available from an outside source. In other words the human will surely die without it. Now let us see how well you do on this quiz picking the right answers. Which of the following are not essential for human existence? a. fat b. all minerals needed by the body c. love d. carbohydrates e. vitamin C f. protein Two of the choices above are wrong. They are: vitamin C and carbohydrates. Research studies confirm the correct answers time and time again. Without love and affection with touch the human baby or infant will die as demonstrated by King hundreds of years ago in his experiment. A person can survive and live quite well without carbohydrate consumption as demonstrated by the Eskimoes for hundreds of years, who lived in areas that did not produce grain and fruit. They subsisted on fat and protein eaten from the animals and fish they lived on. The only mammal on the earth that does not produce his own vitamin C is the human being. If he does not consume vitamin C from an outside source in meat, fruit, vegetables, and other sources, he will die. Some things are essential for human life and some things are not. Congratulations if you got the two correct answers not essential for human life. Quote
