Horace Fletcher chewed his way to fame, and here is his primer on it: an alphabet of nutrition, a method, and the supporting evidence he gathered from willing scientists. The economic nutrition movement in its founder's own enthusiastic voice, questions and answers included. One of the strangest health crazes ever to sweep America, from the source. Chew on the argument.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
