"It is well known that men who are
nourished very extensively on cereals
are capable of the hardest and most
enduring manual labor. Meats are
quickly digested, furnish an abund-
ance of energy soon after consump-
ton, but are not retained In the diges-
tive organism long enough to sustain
permanent muscular exertion. On the
other hand, cereal foods are more
slowly digested, furnish the energy
necessary to digestion and the vital
functions in more uniform manner,
and are thus better suited to sustain
hard manual labor for long period of
time.
Cereals contain as their most abund-
ant constituent an element of foods
which is practically absent in meats,
viz, carbohydrates, of which starch
and sugar are types. Starch and sugar
alone are not sufficient to give
permanent nourishment to the body,
since they fail to contain the elements
necessary to the nourishment, especial
Iy of the muscular tissues of the body.
In cereals, however. the starch is COM
bined with an abundant supply of nj
trogenous materials, of which the glu-
