This book was written in 1954 by José del Carmen Garcia, a person that was passionate about eating and living healthy. He spent countless hours reading, researching and testing diets and their effect on health. This book presents his notes, findings and recommendations from his work. It is comforting to know that most of the principles that he describes in this book are consistent with what 60 years later are commonly accepted healthy diets. He also lived by these principles until one day at the age of 96 he went to sleep one night and never woke up. He is greatly missed, but this book will help readers understand and live by his legacy.
