One can make the case for the principle of digestion by the simple observation that every form of life is food for some other form of life. Everything in life is in the process of digesting or being digested. Everything in life is constantly changing and nothing stays the same for long. Biological life is one perpetual parade of birth, life, death, and rebirth. Everything in life is in the process of being and becoming everything else. These endless biological cycles go on and on. What is the common ground in these cycles and biological life forms? Mealtime. Where would life be without food and digestion? The quality of our life and health is determined by our ability to digest, absorb, and assimilate the various circumstances of our lives, including ordinary foods and beverages. Extraordinary health may be defined as the ability to digest anything.
