Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 There are natural floods, too. Does this make them food? Our thinking has been so completely polluted and distorted by the massive amount of advertising to which we have been exposed that we have all adopted an entire way of speaking which, if viewed from a completely detached place, would readily be seen as absurd. So much of our use of language ... in this case the term " natural " ... is habitual, arising from this exposure to mass media, that we don't even think about what we are saying. Instead, we come from a foundation of presumptions we have internalized from advertising. In commerce, the term " natural " has a very limited, specific meaning ... and NOTHING more. Ask any employee at Whole Foods what distinguishes their stores, and they can tell you that list ... it consists of only 4 or 5 items ONLY. So we often confuse ourselves as to which version of " natural " we mean ... the Nature version, or the commercial/legal version. The question is not whether there are or are not " natural diuretics " , of course there are. Rather the question is, do we ever need to use force to push stored watery brine from our systems, or are we better off simply creating health and allowing ourselves to experience our system asserting itself in accordance with IT'S own priorities. I choose the latter, every time.
