Credit is due to those investigators in the field of nutrition who made careful and painstaking studies which have given knowledge on how best to select, combine and prepare food to promote the health and efficiency of the individual The world’s demand for food is becoming greater than ever.

But they are unlikely to have a role in the prevention of diseases associated with over nutrition in developing countries, which use...
