Mid-morning: yogurt and fruit. Sunflower seeds and raisins if on the go.

Lunch: salad of fresh greens, cottage cheese and pineapple; egg salad or tuna salad sandwich on wheat-berry bread; apple juice or pink mint tea.

Mid-afternoon: banana and milk, or milkshake with egg, or half a packet of instant-breakfast product blended or whipped with one teaspoon sesame oil and one glass of milk.

Supper: brown rice; thinly sliced, stir-fried assorted vegetables; chicken, fish or lean meat with fresh parsley. Eat the parsley too.

Bedtime snack: cheese and rye crackers, an apple and a glass of milk.

You see the pattern . . . five or six light, high-protein meals daily.

FATIGUE

In the evening: Have an herb bath (try rosemary for a stimulant or valerian root for a restful night). Do sleep with a window open or partly open, but not while you're lying in a draft. You'll wake up feeling more lively.

In the morning: Stand by an open window or go outdoors. Fill your lungs completely by inhaling three times without exhaling. Then count to 20 and exhale slowly. Repeat this several times.

Gently pound with your knuckles along the outside of each arm, then along the inside, to stimulate lung and heart action. (Read The First Book of Do-In by Jacques de Langres, distributed retail by Tao Books, 29 Farnsworth St., Boston, Mass. 02210. This work is being reprinted and will probably cost around $2.00. The Second Book of Do-In should be available shortly.) Stretch every finger and toe, rotate your thumbs, rub your hands together and gently move your fingertips all over your face, beginning with the eye sockets. Take a shower and finish with cool water. By that time you should be ravenously hungry and ready to remake the whole world right after breakfast.

Eat calves' liver sauteed with tamari or teriyaki sauce. (See the recipe under ANEMIA in MOTHER NO. 29.) Also sliced oranges, with some of the peel. Likewise sunflower seeds, raisins, yogurt and alfalfa sprouts. Drink one teaspoon honey and one teaspoon vinegar to a teacup of hot water. Build your endurance by walking each day . . . and going a little farther every outing.
