INTRODUCTION

To appear well and retain a youthful appearance should be the aim of every person who wishes to be successful in business and social life. And there is no topic pertaining to health that is of greater interest to me than the diet program. I believe that food of the right kind and the proper amount is the most powerful of all curative agents. Not only the person suffering from the disease must have the proper food, but also the individual in good health must use the proper foods in the right proportions, if he or she wishes to retain a high standard of good health, a body of beauty, strength, perfection, and restore youthful vitality, endurance and resistance.

DIETETICS

Proper food is probably the most important factor to be taken into consideration in the successful treatment and cure of all chronic diseases. Nearly all chronic disorders are associated in some way with wrong eating, and an individual cannot expect a permanent cure until he is educated along the lines of diet.

The human body is a chemical composition of sixteen principal elements: Oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon, chlorine, fluorine, phosphorus, iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, sodium, sulphur, silicon and iodine. Every element has to perform a certain duty, if the blood and tissue building mineral salts are not supplied in sufficient quantities, or if any of them are missing, the health will soon become impaired. These elements are Nature’s only means to establish, re-establish and maintain an equilibrium between the constructive and destructive functions.

The daily average requirement of tissue salts to maintain a healthy body is about one-half ounce, therefore, a diet that does not contain this amount of organic salts is not an adequate one. White bread, meat, potatoes, pie, cake and other cooked foods do not contain these mineral salts in sufficient quantities and during the process of cooking, most of them are lost or made unassimilative.

Such a diet is too rich in acid-forming material and, being robbed of its alkaline ingredients, cannot neutralize the acid of fermentation nor the acids of the stomach. Meat and some other cooked foods have a tendency to decay in the intestines and the gases formed penetrate the alimentary walls and saturate the entire system. In this manner the blood becomes saturated with waste material that clogs the capillaries and causes painful congestions and brings about a state of auto-intoxication.

The blood is the life of the body. To be 100% efficient one must have 25 billion of perfect, round, disc-shaped corpuscles. The function of the red corpuscles and plasma is to carry nourishment and oxygen to the various parts of the body and to carry worn-out cells and other poisonous matter to the eliminative organs. Meat and other cooked foods that decay in the digestive tract, manufacture poisons which degenerate these round discs to vitiated, cross-shaped corpuscles ready to die and drop out of activity, thus putting a larger burden on the live ones.

Fruits and Vegetables together with nuts and uncooked cereals are very rich in organic tissue salts and as this diet does not readily ferment nor
