Excelente pregunta sobre la dieta higiénica o del higienismo. Ellen White escribió extensamente sobre estos principios, y el pasaje que citaste de Education 204.3 es fundamental para entender su perspectiva sobre la alimentación higiénica. ## Principios Fundamentales de la Dieta Higiénica según Ellen White **La Dieta Ideal del Creador:** "Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the diet chosen for us by our Creator. These foods, prepared in as simple and natural a manner as possible, are the most healthful and nourishing. They impart a strength, a power of endurance, and a vigor of intellect, that are not afforded by a more complex and stimulating diet" (MH 296.1). **Elementos Nutritivos Completos:** "All the elements of nutrition are contained in the fruits, vegetables, and grains" (HL 78.4). Ellen White enfatizó que "Simple grains, fruits, and vegetables have all the nutrient properties necessary to make good blood. This a flesh diet cannot do" (HL 63.5). ## Características de la Preparación Higiénica **Simplicidad en la Preparación:** "Fruits, grains, and vegetables, prepared in a simple way, free from spice and grease of all kinds, make, with milk or cream, the most healthful diet. They impart nourishment to the body and give a power of endurance and a vigor of intellect that are not produced by a stimulating diet" (CTBH 47.1). **Alimentos a Evitar:** Como mencionaste en el pasaje de Education, Ellen White identificó específicamente que "Tea and coffee, fine-flour bread, pickles, coarse vegetables, candies, condiments, and pastries fail of supplying proper nutriment" (Ed 204.3). ## Principios del Higienismo según Ellen White **Remedios Naturales:** "Pure air, sunlight, abstemiousness, rest, exercise, proper diet, the use of water, trust in divine power—these are the true remedies" (MH 127). **Individualización de la Dieta:** "There is real common sense in dietetic reform. The subject should be studied broadly and deeply, and no one should criticize others because their practice is not, in all things, in harmony with his own. It is impossible to make an unvarying rule to regulate everyone's habits, and no one should think himself a criterion for all" (MH 319.2). ## Advertencias sobre Extremos Ellen White advirtió contra los extremos en el higienismo: "When those who advocate hygienic reform go to extremes, it is no wonder that many who regard these persons as representing health principles reject the reform altogether. These extremes frequently do more harm in a short time than could be undone by a lifetime of consistent living" (MH 324.1). **Equilibrio y Sentido Común:** "Some of our people, while conscientiously abstaining from eating improper foods, neglect to supply themselves with the elements necessary for the sustenance of the body... Food should be prepared in such a way that it will be appetizing as well as nourishing" (9T 161). ## Educación en Principios Higiénicos Ellen White enfatizó la importancia de la educación: "Greater efforts should be put forth to educate the people in the principles of health reform. Cooking schools should be established, and house-to-house instruction should be given in the art of cooking wholesome food" (9T 161). La dieta higiénica según Ellen White se basa en alimentos naturales, preparación simple, individualización según las necesidades, y evitar extremos, siempre manteniendo el equilibrio entre lo nutritivo y lo apetitoso.
