Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal of the Outdoor Life, Vol. 8: January, 1911
As the condition of the patient improves, the food requirements diminish. The decline of the active symptoms of the disease brings a decrease in the fuel needed for overcoming its poisons. The gradual increase of the te sisting powers. As shown by increased weight and strength, in turn lessens the need of fuel for these building processes. Finally, when the patient once has a reserve above his normal requirements accumulated, the amount of food he needs has been reduced to that amount necessary to furnish the energy for his daily activities and to maintain his te serve oi strength intact. This will vary with the life he leads; the patient who con tinnes taking the cure needing less than the one returning to active life, just as he who is doing, light work in an office will need less than the man engaged in heavy physical labor.
