By Dr. Royal Lee
Summary: Amazingly, Dr. Lee presented this paper in 1923, to his senior class at Marquette University Dental School. In it he shows that resistance to dental disease—like immunity to any disease—rests on the proper function of a holistic network involving the endocrine system, the immune system, and the vitamins and minerals obtainable only from whole foods. To help combat cavities, he calls for unpasteurized milk and more raw foods in the diet. Remarkable for its time, and just as remarkable today. Reprint 30A, 1923.
