I was born in 1931 in Doniphan, Missouri and grew up in a small farming
community in the 1930’s and 1940’s. The town of Doniphan had 1600
inhabitants. I spent most of my after school hours working in the grocery
store my father managed, learning about groceries, meats, and fresh produce.
I had a keen interest in the people of the community and their state of health.
At that time, most of the diseases were caused by bacteria such as
diphtheria, polio, measles, mumps, malaria, rabbit fever, etc. The health of
pets and farm animals caught my interest as well.
It was exciting for me to see the changes in the health of humans and other
animals as the nutritional developments of the 1940s were being
implemented. The eggs no longer had soft shells; birth defects were less
frequent among humans and the other animals. There were so few chronic
diseases among the people, I considered them rare!
