The ancient Greek medicine focused significantly upon diet, and naturally explored the nexus between food, flavor, and what were conceived to be the basic elements of the body.
Hippocrates wrote, “Within the man, there are bitter, salty, sweet, and sour, and the astringent and when these ingredients are blended and bonded together, neither is shown, nor is affecting humans. But when one of them separates itself and left alone, the damage appears”.
Pete Volos reporting from Botany Bay, which was the site of James Cook’s first landing of HMS Endeavor on the landmass of Australia after his extensive navigation of New Zealand, most of his crew ship was suffering from scurvy, a cause of vitamin C deficiency due to the lack of fresh vegetables and fruits.
At Hippocrates Healthy Eatery, we cold press our juices, which withholds all the essential nutrients, and by adding the four tasting elements to our juices and our foods not to just add to the flavour but are vital for our health and boosting our immune system.
SWEET
We add sweet oranges, apples, watermelons and carrots. Sweet is described as the pleasant taste, signaling the presence of sugar, which is a core source of energy and hence, desirable to the human body.
SOUR
Adding sour fruit such as lemons, grapefruits and pineapple, it satiates stimulates digestive activity and causes moistening within the body.
BITTER
Bitter veggies in our juices such as celery, kale, dandelions are the sensitive of the four tastes. The bitterness is high in antioxidants, which also aid in metabolism and digestion and are known to be anti-aging.
