In a set of lectures in 1936, McCarrison laid out what would become the ideology of the counterforce. “Perfectly constituted food,” McCarrison said, was the single biggest determinant of good health. The most important part of this perfectly constituted food was plants: fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. In turn, he said, the nutritive qualities of those plants depended on how they were cultivated.
