| Writer and lecturer, born in Lawrence, Massachusetts, USA. A San Francisco-based businessman, he cured himself of overweight and chronic dyspepsia, and after 1895 became an advocate for his own nutritional system. The most important element of his common-sense regimen prescribed chewing food until it was thoroughly mashed, a process once widely known as fletcherism. |
