His experiments in dietary reform must come to this end: he will find that he returns to the philosophic admonition of expertly balanced feeding, but with some better understanding of what constitutes "balance." Formerly, the ingredients of his raw salads were limited to lettuce, cucumber, and cress. He will add other raw vegetables such as peas, red cabbage, squash, and even vegetable roots such as carrot, celeriac, parsnip, and beets--grated, of course, or he could not endure them, and rendered palatable with tasty dressings. Formerly he mixed indiscriminately fruit, raw and cooked vegetables together at the same meal. Now he will try to keep them apart and eat them at separate meals.
