Letter on Corpulence, Addressed to the Public (Classic Reprint) by William Banting Pdf
Excerpt from Letter on Corpulence, Addressed to the Public Few men have led a more active life - bodily or mentally - from a constitutional anxiety for regularity, precision, and order, during fifty years' business career, from which I have now retired, so that my corpulence and subsequent obesity was not through neglect of necessary bodily activity, nor from excessive eating, drinking, or self - indulgence of any kind, except that I partook of the simple ailments of bread, milk, butter, beer, sugar, and potatoes more freely than my aged na ture required, and hence, as I believe, the generation of the parasite, detrimental to comfort if not really to health.
