Every Individual a Law Unto Himself

John Tilden Week, Part 5

Every Individual a Law Unto Himself

Dr. John Tilden was a late 19th century and early

20th century medical doctor who turned to Natural

Hygiene to help his patients recover from a wide

variety of diseases.

Today we'll have Tilden in a nutshell on health:

"Every individual is a law unto himself, and what

someone else does, or fails to do, has nothing to

do with the other 'feller.'

"What we have been able to do with impunity today,

last week, last month, or last year, has nothing

to do with what is best for us to do tomorrow,

next week, next month, or next year. We should

always be willing to do for ourselves whatever

is best, and that which will conserve health and

life and develop the greatest efficiency."

J.H. Tilden, Food: Its Influence as a Factor in

Disease and Health, page 82
