2021 Reprint of the 1962 Edition. Facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Donaldson advocated fresh fat meat, water, and exercise to treat allergies, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, gallstones and obesity. The book described "the big bad seven" foods: milk, cream, ice cream, eggs, cheese, chocolate and flour which should be eliminated from the diet. Surgeon Charles G. Heyd wrote a supportive preface for the book. The diet that Donaldson put his patients on consisted of three fatty steaks a day, three cups of coffee and six glasses of water. Strong Medicine attracted considerable controversy. It was criticized by physician Morris Fishbein who commented that the "book is hardly scientific, so presumably what the physician was taught in his youth he has forgotten in his later years." Donaldson's extreme dietary views were classified by Fredrick J. Stare as "food faddism". Despite this, the book continues to have followers and promoters to this day.

I had given up on losing weight due to being a post menopausal woman. Even Atkins had quit working. This book offers an amazing diet that is not for the faint hearted!! The author was a weight loss physican who was discouraged over the lack of progress by his patients. He did a lot of research and came up with the perfect weight loss formula. He also addresses six other serious medical conditions that can be improved or cured by the same method. It is very simple but still hard to adhere to unless you are so impressed with the results as I have been. ln addition to the weight loss, I have no arthritis pain as it seriously reduces inflamation. The maintence plan is a no brainer so I recommend this book most heartily.
