If you referring to St.Benedict, he was concerned for some reasons.
Explanation:
Ok, St.Benedict was a monk that was very spiritual. He believed that we should only eat if we actually needed to. In his point of view, food is gift of God and should not be taken for granted. He also thought people should not eat for a current period to show a sacrifice. This is understood if your a Christan or Catholic. It was even written that young boys shouldn’t eat as much as the elders but less. Luke(21:34) I believ. I think it is because since the elders are less capable to make a bigger sacrifice since they are old. I hope this helps you, God bless you <3.
