ABOUT THE BOOK:- The book gives the author experience with fasting as well as many testimonies from letter he received from people who tried fasting and ended up with fantastic results. Results such as cures for a great number of diseases and ailments including cancer. Mr Sinclair gives general outlines for fasting but atleast that every person is biologically a little different and result vary from one person to the next.

To gather information for the novel, Sinclair spent seven weeks undercover working in the meat packing plants of Chicago. These direct experiences exposed the horrific conditions in the U.S. meat packing industry. Sinclair was extremely active in socialist politics throughout his life. His novel “Dragon's Teeth” on the rise of Nazisms won him the Pulitzer Prize. In 1967, a year before his death, Sinclair was invited to the white House by president Lyndon Johnson to witness the singing of the wholesome Meat Act of 1967, which expanded the earlier Meat Inspection Act of 1906.
