I wish you good health and success for many years to come. I would like to discover more of such matters. What I am criticising is the practice of certain doctors and the A.M.A. and the B.M.A., who have learnt something about Nature-Cure Food reform and who use these ideas in ordinary medical work without disclosing to their patients that the treatment they are them to adopt has any unorthodox origin. Take the example of severe burns, Nature-cure people have treated burns by immersing the person in a cold water bath or cold water compresses, and fasting or fruit diet. The medical profession has now been giving similar advice together with skin grafting for several years, without giving credit to Nature-cure.
Food combining is another field.
Lately the medical profession has begun to admit and advise people with severe gastric and intestinal problems to use a mono-diet or simple meals. One of the medical doctors, Dr. Wm. Howard Hay, adopted this Hygienic modality so successfully that people thought of Food combining as the Dr. Hay's diet. No mention was made that Dr. Hay took this idea from the Hygienist pioneers of that era . Take the whole field of modern physiotherapy.
