Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Meatless and Wheatless Menus
When times are normal people and governmentsare inclined to pursue lines of least resistance; that is, to continue practices and customs not be cause they are best but because of habit, but it is during abnormal periods that we do our best think ing. Now while we are at war and our National food supply is a factor in the struggle, the govem ment admonishes us to use less meat as a patriotic duty.
My clinical experience for many years past in prescribing diet for both the sick and the well has convinced me that people could live just as well or perhaps better by reducing the consumption of wheat products and making up the deficiency from other grain and vegetable sources.
In all of my books I state that the American peo ple eat too much bread, especially white wheat ?our bread. In my Encyclopedia of Diet where nearly a thousand menus are laid out not one of them calls for white bread.
