Emerging science has now recognized that the universal theme of man being created from clay may not be that far from the truth.

At least the food we eat, which supplies our bodies with the energy for all that we think, feel, and do, is grown in clay.

Starting from a tiny seed, a carrot obtains from the soil its vitamins A, C, and B6, its iron, and magnesium, as well as the vitamins and minerals that exist in minute traces, yet are essential for life.

If the carrot is deficient, then we are deficient because our vitality is acquired from the soil.
