Diet and Health Hints from Dr T Allen Food Specialist

The editor of the Scientific American notes fresh meat protein costs about twelve times wheat protein and that wheat gluten may be preferred for digestion. Habit shapes appetite, but with discipline children can avoid cravings. Nuts, wheat, cottage cheese, and eggs supply protein better than flesh, which is costly and linked to diseases. Meat should be eaten once daily or less, especially in warm weather.
