FIRST EDITION COPYRIGHTED, 1935

INTRODUCTION

In the enclosed volume the author wishes to express what she feels are the first steps on the road to correct eating, to gain and maintain a life that is pulsating with joyous health.

In offering this small Koch Cancer Cook Book to the thousands of hungry seekers of health, the author is simply answering the demands of thousands upon thousands suffering with Cancer and its allied diseases who ask over and over again each day, “WHAT SHALL I EAT?” “HOW SHALL I PREPARE IT SO AS TO MAKE IT BOTH TASTY AND NUTRITIOUS?”

In the preparation of this Cancer Cook Book, the author wishes to thank her many friends for their aid and willingness to spread cheer to the thousands that will read and use these recipes. Among those who have made suggestions, Mrs. Florence Crabb is especially thanked. She has fed thousands of Cancer Sufferers using the Koch Cancer Antitoxin and after using her recipes and proving their worth, they are grouped with the author’s and passed on to you for enjoyment. The Koch Cancer Foundation is thanked sincerely for their cooperation in making this Koch Cancer Cook Book possible.

Actual experience gained from the handling of hundreds of Cancer Sufferers over a period of seven years and a careful study of foods convinces the author that those in distress, those seeking aid from the Koch Treatment or any other remedial agent do not have anything reliable to which they can turn and find easy and specific instructions as to what to eat and how to prepare it. The problem of feeding is a big job. The sufferer has for years eaten the “American Substantial Daily menus of—meats gravies, white bread, pies, condiments, coffees, teas, desserts, etc.,” so long they are absolutely lost when they find that to regain their lost health they must forsake their “old standby daily rations.” This fact and truth startles them. They are absolutely lost. They are unable to think of other combinations of tasty, palatable, and nutritious foods. For this reason the author has taken much pains and study as well as years of actual preparation of these proven recipes and these groups of foods in getting material for this Koch Cancer Cook Book and securing this Cook Book published for your benefit and aid.

There are hundreds of cookbooks on the market, but they are absolutely of no value to the Cancer Sufferer. This is the first Cook Book of its kind and it is with pleasure and much pride that the author asks that you read carefully, follow its instructions rigidly, as every recipe has been used dozens and dozens of times and the combinations of foods carefully selected of those foods that are permissible for the user of the Koch Cancer Antitoxin. It is this combination of “permissibles” that has taken so much time and work to make this book possible. You will note there are many cereals or grain products used and permitted. These grains should always be used as “whole grains, flours, meals, cereals, etc.” Never use the bolted meals and flours. Note carefully—THE LESS STARCHES YOU USE, and all cereals are starches, THE BETTER OFF YOU WILL BE AND THE LESS GAS YOU WILL HAVE. CUT YOUR CONSUMPTION OF BREAD AND STARCHES TO THE MINIMUM.

Pay close attention to the combination of foods— GOOD COMBINATIONS, and BAD COMBINATIONS FOR THE HEALTH SEEKER that follow.

You are especially cautioned not to make your recovery harder and longer than it should be by telling yourself, “I can’t follow this old horrid diet.” “This is terrible,” “I must have my coffee.” “My eggs and milk are my staff of life.” “I cannot eat whole-wheat bread.” and a dozen other such useless sayings. You must not fail before you try. You must realize that. “If what you have been eating all your life was correct you would not now be sick.” You must remember that your body is the sum total of “what you eat, drink, and how you think.” Your mucous forming foods will in time clog your system and give you grief. They break down your eliminative organs, as they increase their work. All starches are mucous and gas forming. Eggs, meats, and such are putrefactive foods, besides being “second-handed foods.” You are neither a bird that eats seeds and grain nor are you a lion that eats meat only. You are a combination of all animals below you and you will do well not to emulate any one species in your eating habit.

Get a clear picture of yourself in perfect health: well, happy, and useful—as you were once in life. Take this mental picture of what you want to be and set it before your mind’s eye and keep it there all the time. Make up your mind to do everything possible to bring about the manifestation of the perfect “you” which you have made for your “mental eye” to look at all times. Give up all past habits and ways of living that have made you “what you now are”—Quit the “tasty” so-called foods, the things you like best, and the pessimistic thoughts and your own weakness and habit of saying “I CAN’T.” Learn this little poem and say it every day—

“One ship drives east and one drives west,
While the self same breezes blow:
‘Tis the set of the sails and not the gales
That determines the way they go.
Like the birds of the air are the ways of fate.
As we journey along through life
‘Tis the set of the soul that determines the goal. And not the storm and the strife.” Lene.

Become master of yourself and your taste. Be an image of the Creator that made you. Reflect a credit to your maker. Make yourself over in the likeness of the Spirit that made, repairs, and keeps you. You can if you will only think and act the part. Follow the foods as herein outlined. Refuse to be a quitter. Remember the Creative Intelligence that made you in the beginning is still with you and is remaking you of the things you eat, drink and the thoughts you think.

If you follow your foods, drinks, and keep happy creative and determined thoughts before you—stick to your doctor that has recommended the use of the Koch Treatment—use as many treatments as may be necessary—taking time for the God within you to remake you—you will get well. The author has seen the useless made useful, the hopeless made hopeful, the dying made to live again—not in one case, but in hundreds, and knows that you too have a wonderful chance to become useful to yourself and loved ones again. The author has prepared thousands of meals for such as you and has every confidence in the world that the only Treatment worth using is the one you have used and that your doctor is worthy and capable of directing you all the way back to health and happiness. You must be willing and fight for the realization of that picture of yourself, as you want it to be.

The joy that comes in handing this Special Koch Cancer Cook Book to you is greater than you shall ever know. You read, study, follow instructions, and a greater joy—HEALTH will come to you.

May the book serve the purpose for which it was intended, i.e., a bright light to make easy your problem of eating and rebuilding your body. My ardent desire is that the joy of living might once more become the possession of all sufferers.

Sincerely,
Olga C. Compete.

DIET

The idea of the diet is to nourish the patient sufficiently, and at the same time maintain a normal blood chemistry, to avoid all irritants, stimulants, and toxic substances in the sense that they hamper the progress of normal intracellular reactions, and to feed such materials that are conducive to best digestive activities and bowel action.

FOOD ESSENTIALS

In order to maintain life and health, foods must contain vitamins, mineral salts, protein fat, carbohydrates and water.

If our food is lacking in vitamins, deficiency diseases result, such as neuritis, scurvy, rickets, paralysis. Some of these vitamins are destroyed by heat. Therefore, some of the food must be eaten raw. The foods rich in vitamins are the fresh fruits, the green vegetables and the dairy products.

Our bodies contain 16 different mineral salts. If our food does not supply these, disease results. The source of mineral salts is fruit, green vegetables, the skin of fruits and tubers and the germ and hulls of the cereals. Therefore, we must eat whole cereals, eat the skins of fruits and vegetables, and save and drink every bit of pot liquor in which the green vegetables are cooked.

CLASSIFIED LIST

After the antitoxin has been given the diet should consist of the solid, raw or cooked foods, outlined below. This selection is made after much experience and is designed to include the non-injurious materials and to omit those, which tend to interfere with the recovery chemistry.

1. The restricted juice diet, together with the daily enemas, should continue for three or four days.

2. After the injection has been given, the patient can go on the classified diet but the daily enemas should be continued together with a little un medicated mineral oil, if that should become necessary, until two natural bowel movements a day are procured. After this result is obtained the enemas should be given twice a week.

3. No medication of any kind is necessary or permissible; no cathartics, nothing but hot or cold applications to control pain, or the smallest amount of morphine BY MOUTH only if that should become necessary.

BRIEF HEALTH GUIDE

1. Get plenty of fresh air day and night. Oxygen is necessary to all body functions. Breathe deeply.

2. Sip a glass of warm water, or water with orange juice upon arising, helps clean the stomach for the meal to follow. Orange is an alkalinizer. This habit aids elimination of body wastes.

3. Drink plenty of water during the day. Water is needed for all body processes.

4. Bathe daily or rub the skin with a coarse, dry towel. Some of the body wastes are eliminated through the skin. Pores must be kept clean to facilitate elimination.

5. Let the diet lean toward alkaline foods. The body is not healthy if the blood and tissues are acid.

6. Masticate all foods thoroughly, especially starches. The digestion of starches starts in the mouth.

7. Exercise daily. Exercise all muscles in some sport especially enjoyed. Unused muscles lose their tone.

8. Keep the bowels clean. Eat plenty of roughage. When necessary use mineral oils, which are lubricants. Laxatives are usually harmful,

9. Try to keep the mind free from worry. Take up an interesting hobby or study.

10. Hold your temper: don’t let it hold you!

How to Measure in Cooking

Measuring Utensils: Use standard glass measuring cup with numbers showing fractional parts of a cupful. Have a set of measuring spoons in tablespoon and half tablespoon, teaspoon, half teaspoon, and salt-spoon size. These are accurate and not expensive.

To Measure Dry Ingredients: Fill cup or spoon and level off the top with blade of knife. Always sift flour, powdered sugar and confectioner’s sugar before measuring.

To Measure Liquids: When cupful or spoonful is called for, fill to the very top. Use standard measuring cup to measure fractional parts of a cupful.

To Measure Fats: Butter, lard and other solid fats should be packed solidly into the cup or spoon and leveled off with a knife. When the recipe calls for a certain quantity of melted butter, measure after melting. If it calls for butter melted, measure first, and then melt.

FRUITS
Use in the Body

Fruits take an important place in the diet and must not be neglected. Some are alkalinizers, all are rich in minerals and vitamins, contain roughage and a large volume of the purest water nature provides. It is sometimes called living water. All ripe fruits also contain sugar in the natural form, the best way in which it can be taken into the body and used in the system. A large fruit bill is much better than a large doctor bill. Keep the system clean all winter with fruits and vegetables and a special spring housecleaning with strong drugs and herbs will not be necessary.

DRIED FRUITS

All dried fruit should be washed thoroughly. Cover the fruit with hot water and allow to soak over night. Next morning fruit may be warmed if desired. No sugar or other sweetening need be added. Do not drain off water. The morning meal should consist of some fruit dried fruit, fresh fruit or home canned—fresh or dried preferred. Eat all you want.

Those in ill health will be greatly benefited by an all fruit breakfast. Well-browned dry toast may be added, whole-wheat waffles, or cakes. A warm drink is desired by some, and Mo-ko is highly recommended, served with cream.

BAKED BANANAS
Fine For Breakfast.

Wash firm bananas and do not peel. Place in a shallow pan in medium oven (350° F.). Bake 20 to 30 minutes; remove skin and serve with butter and a sprinkling of sugar or serve in the skin.

BAKED APPLES
Wash, core and fill centers with raisins or dates. Allow 1/4 cup of sugar for 6 apples. Cover half way with water. Baste apples while baking. Raisins and dates can be omitted if one so desires.

Cantaloupes and watermelons are natural foods and can be eaten with practically all combinations. (Caution: Do not eat them chilled at breakfast, especially hyperacidity.)

LIQUID VEGETABLES—RE VITALIZE, RE-CHEMICALIZE:
The Sep-Ro-Siv is excellent for all food grinding. Also, for extracting juice from fruit.

VEGETABLES— THEIR PREPARATION
All vegetables should be un-peeled if possible.
Wash thoroughly. Use these vegetables just as Nature has provided them. If they are boiled or steamed, use as little water as possible, and do not over cook them,
Save all the liquid for drinks or soups.

VEGETABLES
Vegetables our bodyguards and protectors, physicians and nurses, policemen and janitors, builders and faithful servants!
They bring to us the fountain of youth and give us abundant life.

USES IN THE BODY
Vegetables are the natural foods, the true health foods. They serve the body in many ways. They are alkalinizers or sweeteners of the blood stream and body tissues. The minerals they contain help regulate the body processes and help protect from disease. The roughage or indigestible cellulose aids in elimination of wastes. The vitamins give vim and vitality by their protecting and regulating work. They help keep the blood pure and maintain youth. Some vegetables also contain carbohydrates, protein, and small quantities of fat. Thus they aid in the building and repair of tissues and in furnishing heat and energy. The vegetable proteins are easily digested. Beans, peas and lentils, contain proteins, starch and some fat. Potatoes are richest in starch.

PREPARATION
Food and eating are the foundation of health. Therefore one should acquire a working mastery of the art of simple and wholesome cooking. Serve plenty of raw vegetable salads, as there is always some loss of vitamins in cooking. However, care in cooking saves much that is lost through careless handling or lack of knowledge in the fundamentals of vegetable cookery.

Don’t commit the great American sin of cooking vegetables in quantities of water and then throwing away the water. Use small amounts of water for all vegetables. What remains after vegetables are cooked pour in glass containers and use in soups or for a drink for the family.

The minerals contained in vegetables are soluble in water and when you throw them away in the cooking water, you are throwing away your family’s health, their good dispositions, their greatest possible success in life, and your money. All too precious to lose. Cook vegetables in Columbia ware utensils and Pyrex ovenware for baking. Be sure to cover oven dishes to hold all natural moisture of vegetables.

When Wonder Shredders are used, peeling may be left on vegetables. The skin and the layers just under the skin are rich in minerals, especially potassium, the great healing agent of the body.

Scrub the skins with a stiff brush or chore girl, wash well and cut out blemishes so the skins may be eaten with relish.

Do not over cook your food—any vegetable that can be shredded requires less cooking and can be baked in Pyrex ovenware or steamed in kettle with small amount of water.

VEGETABLES—BAKED AND STEAMED
How many of you were told to eat all the carrots on your plate, so that you would have a beautiful complexion? Did you do it? Your e1ders may not have known the mineral and vitamin value of these golden roots as we do now, but they did know that they were beneficial—as they still are.

We don’t want to bore you with details but you should know that one medium-sized carrot contains an excellent share of calcium and sufficient amounts of phosphorus and iron. Along with that, cooked young carrots contain a very large amount of that anti-infection vitamin called A. It is also a good source of Vitamin B, and contains some Vitamin G.

SWISS CHARD
This is a vegetable that is very little known but is very valuable and is somewhat on the order of spinach. It grows on tall stalks and has large leaves. It really belongs to the spinach family and in fact, as spinach is out of season, the Swiss chard comes in. Swiss chard is the ideal green for the city garden on account of the large supply that can be raised on a small amount of ground. The old way of using chard would be to pull out the plant. The best way is to cut off just as many leaves as you wish to use and let the plant grow. Cut off the outer leaves. You will be surprised how quickly the plant produces new and tender leaves. Chard can be planted real early in the season but must not be sown too close together. In fact, the plants should be at least two inches apart, as they grow to quite a large size, and can be thinned out later on. Since the leaf is large, the green part of the leaf is cut off and can be used the same as spinach or even cut very fine and used in raw salads. The ribs of the leaf and stem can be used as a separate vegetable. It can be cooked like asparagus. It has a very delicious flavor, prepared in this manner. Just remember the green of the leaves provides a good substitute for spinach for the children if the spinach season is over. The chard will grow without much care and under adverse conditions, although with proper care you will be surprised at the heavy foliage, the mass of stems and leaves. Be sure you do not over cook chard as in that way you lose the valuable food elements. If it is cooked too tender, it loses its most valuable flavor. Every home garden should have Swiss chard and use it often for every member of the family.

SWISS CHARD

MEAL PLANNING

The most important point to remember in meal planning is to serve plenty of alkaline foods—vegetables, fruits, and nuts. In planning, consider how the meal will look and taste when served. Do not over cook your food. Cabbage and greens can be cooked in 15 minutes. Use very little water and do not drain water from vegetables in sink. This water, kept in glass jars, make excellent drinks or soups for the family. Plan your meals a day ahead. With so many colorful vegetables as we now enjoy, one can carry out a very pretty and effective color scheme enjoyed by those in health and tempting for the invalid. It is best not to drink with the meal. Wait at least 30 minutes.

FOR BASIC NUTRITION
Balances Nutrition

These contents are in such proper proportions as to tend to correct the unbalanced diet of individuals and thereby to normalize body nutrition. Unbalanced diet might be due to dislike for certain essential Vitamin-carrying foods; might be due to inability to eat these necessary foods—but is generally due to deficiency of Essentials in available foods.

General body nutrition is increased by its use and in consequence resistance to infection is built up in the body—thereby reducing the severity of illness due to infection. Recovery from illness is hastened by its use because of its stimulating effects upon the appetite, and its nourishing influence upon the cells of the body.
