Beschreibung

First edition, first impression. Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, 1" piece missing from top front jacket, corners slightly rubbed, slight browning to back jacket, but overall jacket bright and unsunned. Not price clipped (12s 6d), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 287pp. Dr. Benjamin Gayelord Hauser (1895¿1984), was an American nutritionist and self-help author, who promoted the 'natural way of eating' during the mid-20th century. He promoted foods rich in vitamin B and discouraged consumption of sugar and white flour, which antagonised the powerful American processed food lobbies. Hauser was a best-selling author, popular on the lecture and social circuits, and was nutritional advisor to many celebrities including Greta Garbo. As late as 1967, Hauser was dismissed as a crank and a charlatan, but by the 1970s, however, the tide began to turn as scientific researches validated many of his progressive notions on nutrition and health. Many now regard him as the founder of the natural food movement and a pioneer who was decades ahead of his time.
