The details that give explicit information about Elizabethans' beliefs about health were the following: "Elizabethan people also consider their health when choosing what to eat." "Elizabethans use (sage) because it is thought to sharpen the brain." "[Sir Thomas Elyot] declares that mutton is the most wholesome meat you can eat."

These people were called the Elizabethans due to the period in history where they live. We are referring to England when Queen Elizabeth I ruled Britain, from 1558 to 1603. That was a time of culture in which the English Renaissance produced many artists, poets, musicians, and play writers. It was also a time of mysticism when people attributed mystic explanations to natural issues. People believed in supernatural things that affected life on Earth. Those ideas influenced their beliefs regarding nutrition and medicine.
