Five Things about the Word of Wisdom You Might Have Overlooked

Some of my non-LDS sisters-in-law are veterans in the professional fitness field. Their (non-LDS) husbands and partners of past and present come from a wide range of fitness buffs: bodybuilders, athletes, yoga gurus, gym owners, physicians, and endurance race participants. Being physically active and health conscious, these non-LDS family members take food choice extremely seriously. They consume only organic fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. If a medical research result discovered that mercury was the new quinoa, it’d be included in their diet that very same day. Their dedication and commitment to maintain optimal physical health make them seem healthier than the rest of the family who keeps the Word of Wisdom.
