A Diet Based Only on Cooked Products

McCarrison fed monkeys with their usual food but first prepared it in a pressure cooker. The consequences were reduced activity of the internal secretion glands, the onset of stomach or intestinal ulcers, inflammation of the large intestine and eventually, cachexia and ... death.

Stiner fed guinea pigs in the same manner. As a result, the animals, suffered from tooth decay, inflammation of the saliva glands, goiter, anemia, scurvy, and in some cases lung cancer. If they added 10 mL (1,000 mL = 1 liter) of pasteurized milk per animal, they also suffered from deforming arthritis.
