By Dr. Royal Lee
Summary: It's been said that Dr. Lee's theories were typically 50 years ahead of his time. In this article from 1956, the great pioneer challenges scientific consensus of the time by stating that the effects of malnutrition in potential parents are inherited by their offspring. "It is a well-established fact that malnutrition can bring about morphological changes that are transmitted to offspring," Lee boldly states. "This seems to explode the generally held opinion that acquired characteristics cannot be transmitted to offspring." Today the science of epigenetics is confirming Dr. Lee's seemingly radical claim, churning out study after study showing that a person's diet can create changes in not only their own genetic expression but in that of their children and even their grandchildren. From Natural Food and Farming, 1956.
