Leonardo’s prescription for life:
If you want to be healthy observe this regime.
* Do not eat when you have no appetite, and dine lightly.
* Chew well, and whatever you take into you…
* Should be well-cooked and of simple ingredients.
* He who takes medicine is ill advised.
* Beware anger and avoid stuffy air.
* Stay standing a while when you get up from a meal.
* Make sure you do not sleep at midday.
* Let your wine be mixed with water, take little at a time…
* Not between meals, nor on an empty stomach.
* Neither delay nor prolong your visit to the toilet.
* If you take exercise, let it not be too strenuous.
* Do not lie with your stomach upward and your head downward. Be well covered at night.
* And rest your head and keep your mind cheerful.
* Avoid wantonness and keep to this diet.
