Between the body and the food, which one is the active and variable party and which one the passive and invariable? Nutrition in general is infested by Catholicism, which claims the body as passive and invariable and the food as active and variable, in literal "Eucharistic" terms, the food is the subject and the body the object. It is all but explicitly stated that it is the body that rests inside the food, that food practically digests the body, with properly scatological results: the body literally comes out of the other end of a diet as excrement out of the anus. Needless to say that this is Logically disgraceful. Even by vulgar quantity alone, cynically so, from an Idealist perspective, or by vulgar quantity alone, proudly so, from a Materialist perspective, the complexity of the body and the simplicity food is enough for the former to be the active and variable one and the latter the passive and invariable. That is to say, the question is not which one food has the same effect on any two bodies, towards knowing the food, but which two bodies are distinctly affected by any one food, towards knowing the body.
