What reading level is The Prolongation of Life Optimistic Studies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Rovighi, which I spoke of in The Nature of Man, have confirmed the latter fact, which now may be taken as certain. The action of kephir in preventing intestinal putrefaction de- pends on the lactic acid bacilli which it contains.
Kephir, although in some cases certainly beneficial, cannot be recommended for the prolonged use necessary if intestinal putrefaction is to be overcome. It is produced by combined lactic and alcoholic fermentations, and as it contains up to one per cent, of alcohol, it...s use as a food for years would involve the absorption of considerable quantities of alcohol. The yeasts which produce it can be acclimatised in the human digestive tract, in which, how- ever, they are harmful, as they are favourable to the germs of infectious diseases such as the bacillus of typhoid fever, and the vibrio of Asiatic cholera.
Kephir has also the disadvantage that its flora varies considerably and is not well known. There has been little success in producing it by pure cultures as would be necessary were it to be brought into general use.
