Is there a relation between Genius and food ?

Bajirao wrote:This is an interesting article.. This article basically indicate the relation between food and genius people. Most of the geniuses like specific kind of food only, also they disliked certain food as well..

Food need not be always appealing in order to inspire. For example, Friedrich Schiller, the poet always used to keep a carton of rotten apples. The reason is, the smell of the rotten apples remind him of the countryside, where he grew up. For an on onlooker the food habits of these geniuses look strange and bizarre.

Basically one can conclude that the genius minds had terrible and wierd taste in food, not really healthy..

Choice and food depends on many factors. We must be follows genius for their Nobel deed, I think it is not necessary to follow theirs eating habits.

I agree. Often , the food habits of these geniuses are unhealthy. For example, French writer Honore Balzack was a Coffee addict. He used to down 50 cups of Coffee in one night.He died at age 51. And the cause of death is Caffeine poisoning.

Clearly, the most genius minds are also eccentric and hence the weird likes and dislikes of these great people. Not sure how specific foods might be linked to the brain functionality but it does play a major role in their aggressiveness. It is my firm belief that people who eat lots of meats are more aggressive than those who do not.

yeah i fully agree on you, instead of following genius person food habits we should follow their good deeds which they have done for this world.

They were truly genius in their career as well as in choice of food and how they practised their food habit.

There are only few genius person who have a specific food habits. Mostly many of them have the same habit has others have 

Yes, there is a big relationship between food and being a genius.  For example, the Tamil Brahmins are always made fun of, for having curd rice as a staple food.  It is always common to see Tamil Brahmins openly asking for curd rice.

However, the WHO has certified curd rice to be the best source of protein, long long ago.  Guess what, right from Sundar Pichchai, the present CEO of Google to the top guns of IBM or Microsoft or TCS or Infosys, every single person is a Tamil Brahmin. 

This is not to say that others are not intelligent.  It is just that certain food habits contribute to intelligence of a tall order.  There is a connection between people who eat medicinal food and their health, which in turn, contributes to their being or becoming geniuses. Those who eat non vegetarian food are more prone towards violence.  This is a proven research point.  However, this does not necessarily mean that they are stupid.

In India every state have their separate foods. What are medicinal food explain it. 

 

I feel that food, healthy food does help in all rund growth of an individual. To be known as a genius ,or rather to become a genius I guess one has to have the genes and then the capacity to rise above the environment , nutritious food may be a factor to a small extent.

The connection between food and genius is a forced relationship. A member states that curd and rice eaten by Tamil Brahmins is reason that they are at top in all companies mentioned by him. I am sure lot many non Brahmins in TN also eat rice and curd and they also must have reached high positions. Also the observation that non veg eaters are prone to violence is laughable. Some of the most virulent observations and remarks are equally made by vegetarians. Stretching relationship between food and genius is outcome of a particular food intake by the original proponents of this theory.

Genes do play a major and vital role in making a person intelligent or average, but it is also equally true that a person who eats the most properly balanced and nutritious food the brain development is more than a person who does not. Also, as is the norm, there are those who are making fun of the statements, but it has been proven that animals killed and eaten involves violence and those who eat such foods more are indeed prone to violence, if not directly violent, they are more aggressive than those who do not.

Well if the particular person is genius then he/she will really eat the food which is profitable to him

I'm of the opinion, a healthy life style, Healthy eating habits assisted by physical work outs  consistently too will contribute to the genius aspect of a person. Depending on one's perseverance with a strong will to make a big difference will boost one's Genius aspect.

Another example of a senseless comment posted mainly for scoring points. Time to lock the thread now!
