Health Foods and Hygienic Restaurants

Ultimate Aim of Health-Food Work
418. When conducted in such a manner that the gospel of Christ
is brought to the attention of the people, the health-food work can be
profitably engaged in. But I lift my voice in warning against efforts that
accomplish nothing more than the production of foods to supply the
physical needs. It is a serious mistake to employ so much time, and so
much of the talents of men and women, in manufacturing foods, while
no special effort is made at the same time to supply the multitudes
with the bread of life. Great dangers attend a work that has not for its
object the revelation of the way of eternal life.—
Manuscript 10, 1906
