Excerpt from Science of Health: German Cook Book
People with full lips or thick lips like stews and soups; thin lips the contrary; but the latter like beef broth and game, toast and welsh rarebit.
All foodstuffs have within themselves medical properties, and a good cook is above the best physician of any land, because a person who understands the chemical compounds and amalgamation of food and its application to the human body, has it in his or her power to keep the body healthy. So a person may do good work while on this earth without a grunt, ache or pain. For weak kidneys, drink fish tea and stop using tobacco. For weak ovaries, eat scrambled eggs with marjoram and onions, well salted, and if eyes and hair are black use no iron, but drink lemonade; but if eyes and hair are light, use no iron, but drink bitter cocoa or chocolate flavored with burned sugar. For sluggish liver eat plenty of curry sauce with your food, also spinach, scrambled eggs with onions. For constipation eat peas and bean soup and avoid too much coffee, but drink hot milk, well salted.
For blue or gray eyes, coffee is best; for brown eyes, tea is best. For a weak heart, drink chocolate, eat puddings, salads, soups, hot milk with little salt, and a good many finely chopped almonds, from which the brown skin has been removed, and steeped five minutes in the hot milk. All sweet things for the heart, all bitter things for the stomach, all sour things for the liver, salt for the spleen and skin.
