This, . BB Is because the apple contains ele- ,M ments which furnish nutrition for H the nerves. , M I Dr. Oldfleld says that Germany lsv H 'having no food troubles from the ca-. . M lorlflc point of view; that Is, they I M are getting plenty of energy furnish- . M Ing foods In concentrated forms such .. '"1 as meats, cereals, and potatoes, liut I -H what they do lack Is nerve foods, fur- ' H nlshed by fats, fruits, and ailads. He , 'H stntes further that already the Ger-. YsbbI mans are showing signs of this lack,,' ffl in that certain resulting diseases aro- ' T appearing.
