Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ...effect upon the health. The latter observer attributed the difference in the effects of the removal of this gland in these two classes of animals to the difference in their dietary, rabbits and pigeons being vegetarians, while the dog is carnivorous. These experiments showed that it is one duty of the thyroid gland to destroy the poisons found in flesh. Dr. Thompson, one of the leading physicians of New York City, very reasonably argues from these facts that flesh food should be withheld in cases of diseases of this gland in which its normal activity is diminished. His experience has shown him that highly beneficial results may be obtained by withholding flesh in such cases. In the treatment of many cases of this kind during the past twenty years, the writer also has found the restriction of diet in these cases to vegetable products highly conducive to recovery. i, The amount of poisons produced in the?eathT. body and the extremely poisonous nature Jfiiglongssue of these substances may be inferred from the rapidity with which death occurs when tliere is any serious interruption in the process of poison elimination; for example, suppression of the action of the kidney results in death within a little more than forty-eight hours, from the accumulation within the body of the poisons which it is the special duty of the kidneys to eliminate. Interruption of the normal activity of the skin by a coating of varnish produces death in a few hours by the accumulation in the body of the various poisons that are eliminated by the skin. Interruption of the action of the lungs results in death within a few minutes, not directly because the supply of oxygen is cut off, but because of the failure of the lungs to expel from the body the deadly toxic...

This fascinating guidebook is an attempt to provide readers with information on what the author deems as "the natural food of mankind". In sum, the author is a proponent of vegetarianism and argues that "Meat is by no means a clean article of diet, but on the contrary a very unclean one; and many foods, supplying an equal amount of proteid matter, are to be preferred, for the reason that they supply less toxic material—which invariably accompanies flesh-meat."

From large-scale cattle farming to water pollution, meat— more than any other food—has had an enormous impact on our environment. Historically, Americans have been among the most avid meat-eaters in the world, but long before that meat was not even considered a key ingredient in most civilizations’ diets. Labor historian Wilson Warren, who has studied the meat industry for more than a decade, provides this global history of meat to help us understand how it entered the daily diet, and at what costs and benefits to society. Spanning from the nineteenth century to current and future trends, Warren walks us through the economic theory of food, the discovery of protein, the Japanese eugenics debate around meat, and the environmental impact of livestock, among other topics. Through his comprehensive, multifaceted research, he provides readers with the political, economic, social, and cultural factors behind meat consumption over the last two centuries. With a special focus on East Asia, Meat Makes People Powerful reveals how national governments regulated and oversaw meat production, helping transform virtually vegetarian cultures into major meat consumers at record speed. As more and more Americans pay attention to the sources of the meat they consume, Warren’s compelling study will help them not only better understand the industry, but also make more informed personal choices. Providing an international perspective that will appeal to scholars and nutritionists alike, this timely examination will forever change the way you see the food on your plate.
