Autorenporträt

Eugene Christian (1860-1930) was an American naturopath, raw-foodist, writer and nutritionist. He promoted the ideas of healthy eating as the best cure and prevention for the most diseases. Like many other writers and practitioners who shared his views, he was often criticized by official medicine. In 1905 he was even arrested after he accusations of New York County Medical Society, but later cleared by the New York Supreme Court as his action didn't cause harm to his clients and he didn't practice actual medicine. Christian is also known as a pioneer of raw-foodyism in America together withGeorge J. Drews. One of his books, Uncooked Foods and How to Use Them, underwent numerous re-editions throughout the whole 20th century.
