To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some cannot touch mutton ; others are made iU by eggs. Let each find out his own antipathy. Suppose the case of a healthy man — so healthy that he cannot be healthier. We will say the quantity of blood in his body IS thirty pounds, and that he loses one pound of this in every twenty- four hours. Is it not plain enough that he must eat as much food in the same time as wih supply the waste of blood he has lost ? But if he should eat as much as wiU furnish a pound and a half of blood, he wiU have ...half a pound of blood too much in Ms system. Should he go on adding an extra half pound of blood daily more than is required to supply the tissues, what then will be the consequences ? Bursting of the blood-vessels. But good Dame Nature has measurably guarded against any such plethoric catastrophe ; for, after having supplied the waste of the body, the undue quantity of blood is converted into fat or adipose matter, thus restoring the blood's volume to a due standard. But this quasi fat is of no use to the body.
