“Let They Food Be Thy Medicine and They Medicine Be Thy Food” –Imhotep
Hippocrates is NOT the “Father of Medicine”, he basically co-opted the works of Imhotep, called “God of Medicine,” “Prince of Peace,” and a “Type of Christ.” Imhotep was worshipped as a god and healer from approximately 2850 B.C. to 525 B.C., and as a full deity from 525 B.C. to 550 A.D in Kemet (Egypt).
Even kings and queens bowed at his throne and was a known scribe, chief lector, priest, architect, astronomer and magician (medicine and magic were used together.) For 3,000 years he was worshipped as a god in Greece and Rome.
Imhotep was also a poet and philosopher who urged contentment and preached cheerfulness. His proverbs contained a “philosophy of life.” and he coined the saying “Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we shall die.”
Bottom line: Health is wealth 🍒🍏🍊🍇🍋🥝
