WHITE BREAD DEFENDED
WHOLESOME AND NUTRITIOUS KOI CAUSE Of DISEASE Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, July 21. White bread is defended in a letter published in the ‘Lancet’ and signed by six eminent doctors and scientists, including Sir Thomas Herder. They affirm that the case’ for wholemeal bread has been overstated. Although wholemeal bread is a good article of diet for many people, white bread of good quality is also wholesome and nutritious. There ro no good reasons for thinking that the substitute of wholemeal broad for white bread in the national diet would materially improve tho national health and physique. Finally, tho allegation that white bread is responsible for cancer, appendicitis, and other diseases is unwarranted and not supported by scientific facts.
