This book is the sequel to Dynamics of Nutrition by Gerhard Schmidt, M.D., and builds upon the same purpose: to help us develop a new conception of nutrition through a new view of humanity and the world. Guided by the spiritual science of Rudolf Steiner, Schmidt strives to open up a more realistic view of the nutrition field, building upon the insights of his prior book to discuss nutrition in actual practice. This topic remains critically important, with more and more people recognizing the need to look beyond the modern nutritional dogma.

Topics covered include:

• Milk: a universal foodstuff
• Protein: the indispensable formative force of life
• Fat substances: stimulators of the warmth processes and the ensoulment of the organisms
• Carbohydrates (sugar) the form and nature of carbohydrates
• The mineral world in nutrition: spirit activity in earthly matter
• The so-called vitamins: the necessity of correcting our current viewpoint
• Nutrition in the East and West
