Gluttony Kills

“My son, while you are still living, test your soul, and see what is bad for it, and do not give in to that. For not everything is profitable for everyone, and not every soul enjoys everything. Do not be gluttonous for every dainty food, and do not give yourself over to food. For overeating will bring sickness, and gluttony will lead to nausea. Many have died because of gluttony, but the careful man will prolong his life.”
Wisdom of Sirach 37:27-31
