Nutrition and Health
GA 354
Steiner answers questions about nutrition for the workmen of the second Goetheanum. He shows them how blossom and fruit are related to the lower body or metabolic system, the leaf is related to the chest and breathing, and the root is related to the brain and nerves. Many other aspects of the relation of food substances to the human body are covered.
The two lectures presented here were given on July 31 and August 2, 1924 in Dornach Switzerland. In the Collected Edition of Rudolf Steiner's works in German, the volume containing the German texts is entitled, Die Schopfung der Welt und der Menschen, Erdenleben und Sternenwirken (Vol. 354 in the Bibliographic Survey). They were translated into English by Gladys Hahn. These two lectures are contained in The Evolution of the Earth and the Influence of the Stars. Translated by Gladys Hahn
