and research done on nutrition,
he said.
The Davis book gives clini-
cal accounts of vitamin ther-
apy and how nutritive diets
helped patients, said Michaels.
He added it was “not meant
to take the place of a doctor's
office. It was written to be
used with doctor’s therapy.’’
“When you start eating sen-
sibly, eating essential foods,
you may find other ailments will
start clearing up.’’
Michaels gave a personal ac-
count of his asthmatic con-
dition being helped by nutritive
diet. He also told about some
cases of acne being cleared up
after vitamins were included in
the diet.
“My personal opinion is, that
if you follow this book, you will
get results,” said Michaels.
Michaels did not recommend
a supplemental vitamin pro-
gram. “Go see a doctor first.
Talk to him about it. Do not
prescribe for yourself.” “If
a person is a good planner and
eats a well-planned diet, it is
possible for him to receive all
of these essential nutrients
from the dinner table,” he add-
ed.
Benny is a graduate of
Rochester High School having
lived in Rochester all his life
until after graduation when he
went to college at ACC in Abi-
lene, later buying a Health Food
Store there. He is married and
has a daughter, Angel who is
about two years of age.
