Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilda Crooks was born in Western Canada in May of 1896. She grew up in the old-fashioned way on a farm where vigorous physical work was daily routine, but book learning was of little confer. Impressed that she needed an education, she left the farm and began the long climb from fifth grade to a bachelor of science degree in dietetics, eventually obtained at the expense of her health. For the next 25 years, she says, I wasn't worth much. I was nervous, anemic, and perpetually tired. So she evaluated her lifestyle, made sure her vegetarian diet was adequate and set herself a regular exercise program.
