By Sir Robert McCarrison, MD
Summary: Dr. McCarrison, the famed nutritional researcher knighted for his work in India (which culminated in the classic reference Studies in Deficiency Disease, available in these archives), gives a lecture to London schoolchildren about diet and nutrition. He recounts his famous rat-feeding studies mimicking the diets of differing populations in India and, based on the results of his studies, gives his prescription for a basic healthful diet: freshly milled grains, raw milk and milk products, legumes, fresh vegetables, fruit, eggs, and meat. Reprint 43, 1937.
