MESSAGE FROM SHRI KAPILA, HUMANITARIAN SOCIETY, SRI LANKA The President, M.W.A. De Silva
Dear Friends, Your readers will find the following opinions of interest:
VEGETARIANISM — WHAT THE DOCTOR SAY
Dr. H.C. Shermaa, Head of the Nutrition Research Dept., Columbia University, New York “FOOD PRODUCTS" "It seems clear from the work of the past 10 to 15 years that the mutually supplementary effect of the proteins from cereals, roots & leafy vegetables is such as to provide an excellent Amino Acid blend for tissue construction and maintenance."
Alexander Haig M.D., F.R.C.P. "Comparative Anatomy and Physiology indicate fresh fruits and vegetables as the main food of man."
Sir Benjamin W. Richardson, M.D., F.R.S. "A die consisting of any stable grain with milk products and green leafy vegetables contain not only the right kind and amount of Protein, but everything else the body needs for health, strength and well-being."
THE OLDEST MAN IN BRITAIN IS A VEGETARIAN
His name is Harry Shoerats. He is one hundred and eleven years old.
He was born in Russia in 1872 and came to Britain at the age of twenty-five. He is still very active and full of health and vigour. Dare anyone tell him that he probably lacks some vitamins because he never ate meat?
