It will be seen that the present dietary furnishes 7 grams less protein 
and 300 calories more energy than study No. 360 with the same sub- 
ject. It is interesting to note that while in the previous study fruit 
furnished only 0.72 gram protein, in the present study it supplies 
11.7 grams, and nuts 1:2. 2 grams, protein per day. The total animal 
protein in study No. .'->♦"><> was 54.6 grams, and in the present study only 
36.6 grams per day. 
In this period of change from the ordinary mixed diet to one con- 
taining a considerable quantity of fruit and nuts, the subject stated 
that on the fourth and tifth days of the study, in addition to his regu- 
lar college duties, a large amount of extra work was performed, 
involving mental strain and loss of sleep. Notwithstanding this 
extra demand on his vitality, his physical condition bo far as could be 
judged was unchanged and his weight increased two pounds. The 
subject stated that, having made the comparison, he preferred a fruit- 
arian breakfast to any other. In general he relished the diet consist- 
ing almost exclusively of fruit and outs.
