Arthritis - Helen B Macfarlane

This guide gives a complete dietary programme, aimed at helping those suffering from osteo and rheumatoid arthritis. The author believes that the quality of food eaten is of fundamental importance and she outlines basic nutritional principles and deals with food supplements and meat substitutes as well as describing the dietary requirements best suited to the easing of arthritic conditions. Helen MacFarlane feels that no lasting improvements in any arthritic condition can be expected if the sufferer eats the wrong food - principally those that contain large quantities of white sugar, white flour and other devitalized substances.
