Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

Starch must be converted into sugar before it can be used by the body.
The sugar is what is known as dextrose, not the refined sugar of
commerce. The sweet fruits contain this sugar in the form of fruit
sugar, which needs but little preparation to be absorbed by the blood.
Dr. Densmore reasons thus: Only birds are furnished […]

All food stimulates, but only slightly

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

All food stimulates, but only slightly. It is when the food decomposes
that it becomes stimulating enough to cause trouble. It is well to
remember that considerable alcoholic fermentation can take place in an
abused alimentary tract. The stimulation obtained from too much food is

morphine. At first there is […]

walnuts
The more representative nuts are pecans, filberts, Brazil nuts and
walnuts. These may be used in place of flesh foods, for they furnish

consists in putting the kernel in very hot water for […]

furnish heat. Every muscle contraction uses up a little energy. Every
breath deprives us of heat and carries away carbon dioxide, the latter
being formed by oxidation of tissues in the body. Every minute we lose
heat by radiation from the skin. Every thought […]
