Biochemical Individuality - the basic
for the genetotrophic concept
by Roger J. Williams, PhD
published 1998 (reprint first published 1956) by Keats
Publishing, Inc., Connecticut
ISBN 0-87983-893-0, 267 pp.
There is no such thing as the average person (or animal for that
matter) - we are all genetically and biochemically unique. But when sperm meets egg, our
characteristics are not locked in stone. Bad genes do not cause disease by themselves -
nutrition and environment can alter the outcome. Dr. Roger Williams, world-renowned
biochemist, told us forty years ago that biochemical individuality - the differences in
anatomy and metabolism from person to person - influences our health. For optimal function
we each have unique nutritional needs and specific environmental requirements. This
message is even more timely today than when it was originally put forth in 1956.
Biochemical Individuality explains why some of us are better at detoxifying drugs and
chemicals, cancer genes respond in different ways to diet and environment, some people are
alcoholics or diabetics, low fat diets cause some people to gain weight, and one person
needs higher levels of a nutrient than another to be healthy etc. This book should have an
honored place among the principal reference books of anyone interested in health and
nutrition!
