Dr. Abram Hoffer states: "The classical deficiency diseases ... have been
replaced by a more subtle pervasive group of diseases of malnutrition due to
deficiencies of vitamins and minerals combined with a surplus of calories
from the sugars and a deficiency of food fiber. Hunger is no longer a
problem; chronic diseases from 'affluent malnutrition' is… There is another
form of malnutrition cellular hunger. The body is unable to metabolize food
properly because of a deficiency of nutrients even though caloric intake is
adequate and often more than adequate. Medical schools have ignored
nutrition and the role of modern nutrition (or affluent malnutrition) in the
causation of a large number of chronic degenerative diseases."
