Health and Diet by Dr Morris Fishbein
There was a time when you worried about thinness now fat people seek thinness yet a seriously undernourished person has concerns. Emaciation signals possible gland or stomach disorders and may require basal metabolic testing and treatment. For undernutrition three meals daily with bread and butter plus high cal foods builds weight. A sample daily menu includes orange juice cereal with cream and sugar eggs toast bacon tea or coffee, milk with cream, cream soup fat meat chicken fish potatoes vegetables buttered, pudding or stewed fruit, more milk, and a large milk drink at night. Four to five thousand calories can be consumed in four hours to correct undernutrition. In severe cases hospitalization may be needed. A recent method uses insulin before meals followed by carbohydrate rich foods to fatten rapidly.
