Hippocrates
Hippocrates
-400 AD·Kos, Greece

Everyone has a doctor in him or her; we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food.

Similar Thoughts

Adam SmithAdam Smith·1759

Every man is, no doubt, by nature, first and principally recommended to his own care; and as he is fitter to take care of himself than of any other person, it is fit and right that it should be so.

HippocratesHippocrates·-400 AD

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.

PlatoPlato·-380 AD

The cure of many diseases is unknown to physicians of Hellas, because they are ignorant of the whole, which ought to be studied also; for the part can never be well unless the whole is well.
