EG. White, Counsels on
Diet and Foods, pp. 363
"Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the
diet chosen for us by our Creator. These foods,
prepared in as simple and natural a manner as
possible, are the most healthful and nourishing.
They impart strength, a power of endurance, and
vigor of intellect, that is not afforded by a more
complex and stimulating diet."
