Principles Of Professor Pirquets System Of Nutrition PDF Download

Excerpt from An Outline of the Pirquet System of Nutrition In the years 1917-1919 I published my new System of Nutrition in four volumes. It is written in German and is rather too large for medical practitioners, as it contains many detailed protocols of the scientific material upon which the system is based. When I was invited to be a Silliman Lecturer at Yale University in the winter of1921-1922 several of my lectures on Modern Pediatrics were on this subject of nutrition, and I was asked by many friends to prepare a short book in English which would contain the principal facts and the practical application of the system. I have used these lectures as a basis for the present book and have added a complete bibliography of the subject from the years1917-1922, the nem values of the principal food-stuffs, and a table of Pelidisi Indices. May I use this opportunity to thank Drs. Lewellys F. Barker, Harriette Chick, Elsie Dalyell, Alfred F.Hess, Edward A. Park, and Charles L.Summers, who were kind enough to help me with the English edition in the way of translation and correction.
