Title: Poor vision was one of mother nature's population controls for the human race.
Post by: King Shizzo on July 17, 2015, 02:53:08 PM
I think that many people overlook the importance of proper eyesight, and the improved way of life that modern eye care has given us.

I believe that since human beings began to walk the earth, some were afflicted with near/farsighted vision (along with other eye ailments). You could only imagine the disadvantage it would be for a hunting and gathering species to be cursed with poor eyesight. It would also be a huge disadvantage when it came to protecting yourself against enemies and wild animals.

Just imagine hand to hand combat with poor vision  :-X  It was definitely a biological defect designed to thin the herd a bit.

So for all you glasses, contacts, and Lasik people out there (including myself) thank your lucky stars that we were blessed with this technology.

You would probably be amazed at how many of them are blind as a bat, and don't know any better.  I am legally blind without my contacts/glasses and for a good portion of my youth I had no idea that it wasn't normal.

Legally blind is not as bad as being completely blind, obviously.  I can still get around my house without glasses or contacts, but I am nearsighted, so things get more out of focus and blurry from a distance.  Can't read shit and wouldn't dare try to drive.

I remember struggling to read the chalkboard in school. I'm sure my eyes were also better back then.

No Shizzo, you're wrong.  Poor vision is the result of poor diet.

No Shizzo, you're wrong.  Poor vision is the result of poor diet.
From WebMD:

"Nearsightedness runs in families and usually appears in childhood. Usually, the condition plateaus, but it can worsen with age."

How does that correlate to a bad diet? It has more to do with genetic traits. Which is why one sibling in the same family can have vision problems, while the other sibling can have 20/20 vision. There are many ailments/afflictions that skip family members or generations.

Think of it in the terms of hair loss. It can affect most of a family and leave others in that same family with a full head of hair.

Its all in the genetic lottery that you get in your mother's womb.

Have you ever witnessed a litter of kittens being born. I have, and it is the perfect example. Out of 8 or 9 cats, a couple were big and healthy looking, most were normal sized, and then there was the one "weakling" of the group. So tiny, so skinny......we had to move the big fat kittens out of the way so that the poor little fella could eat. You could clearly see that some of the kittens were dealt the better genetic hand, and in the wild, the better chance at survival.  Humans are no different.

rednecks dont.

basically a kid spending his childhood on getbig risk his eyesight and a kid playing in the woods dont (unless he gets a treebranch in the eye)

How else would many of us be able to properly assess a physique without good vision.

I see Shizzo but you're preaching it like all people with poor vision, is a result of genetics.   This is not true.  First, your study states nearsightedness. Next, this is not the case for all nearsightedness. Poor vision, is the result of poor diet.  You may be eating totally clean and you can still be eating a poor diet.  How you say?  If the food you eat lacks the necessary minerals you need to keep your body at peak health, it's a poor diet. Most people in the U.S. including myself have a poor diet. Why?  We eat hybrid foods number 1.  What is a hybrid food?  Good question.  It's a food not found in nature.  A crossbred food.  Examples: Common hybrid fruits include the following:

Seedless apples
Seedless watermelons
Several varieties of dates
Seedless grapes
Seedless watermelons
Seedless pineapples
Seedless persimmons
Common hybrid vegetables include the following:

Carrots
Corn
Beets
Celery
Potatoes
Cauliflower
Common hybrid beans, nuts, and seeds include the following:

Legumes
Soy
Wheat grass
Wheat
Rice
Oats
Cashews
Common hybrid herbs include the following:

Ginseng
DonQuay
Chamomile
Garlic
Goldenseal
Echinacea

These foods aren't outright unhealthy but they're incomplete and some of them high in starch and sugar and the body doesn't completely use it.

When your diet consists of these foods and other acidic foods and the way it's prepped (meat and microwaves) you have a poor diet that will lead to a host of conditions over time. Food needs to be complete foods so there's no mineral deficiencies. Complete foods are alkaline in nature and not starchy and high in sugar. This acidic food causes the deterioration of the mucus membranes which brings on disease and ailments.

So by your comments, almost everyone on earth should have eye problems then. The people that were born with (or the genetic trait to develop) bad vision, had a defect that would hinder them in life. I only talked about Nearsightedness, but Farsightedness is also a passed family trait. My whole point, was that having bad vision a hundred thousand years ago, could very well have meant living or dying. How good would a Roman soldier have been with a bad case of nearsightedness?  We have made many advances in medicine, science, and technology that allow us to live longer than ever before.

We no longer have to worry about things like basic bad vision (for the most part) in developed countries. That would have been a huge concern for anyone before the tech existed.

From Wiki:

The first eyeglasses were made in Italy at about 1286, according to a sermon delivered on February 23, 1306, by the Dominican friar Giordano da Pisa (ca. 1255–1311): "It is not yet twenty years since there was found the art of making eyeglasses, which make for good vision...And it is so short a time that this new art, never before extant, was discovered...I saw the one who first discovered and practiced it, and I talked to him."

Wiggs, try going through the dark ages without glasses :-X  Imagine 10,000 B.C. being farsighted :-\

The body will heal itself if you feed it complete food and clean water. Exercise of course is good as well.  All ailments and disease can be cured from eating the right foods and drinking clean water.  Herbs will heal "disease" but when there's money involved you'll never know about that because of Big Pharma.
You must be trolling Wiggs  :D
