Adelle recommended Pep-Up.

This is her famous fortified milk drink called " Pep-up " which is on

pages 219-220 of _Let's Eat Right to Keep Fit_. Her idea was that all

ingredients must be obtained at the same time. Personally, I stay away

from powdered milk. I don't think it is a health-promoting food, except

perhaps for certain specific reasons for short periods of time.

Combine in blender or mix with electric mixer:

2 egg yolks or whole eggs (unless cooked preferred)

1 tablespoon granular lecithin

1 tablespoon vegetable oil or mixed vegetable oils

1 1/2 teaspoons calcium lactate or 4 teaspoons calcium gluconate or 1

teaspoon bone meal

1/4 cup yogurt or 1 tablespoon acidophilus culture

2 cups whole or skim milk

1/4 to 1/2 cup yeast [brewers, not bakers] fortified with calcium and

magnesium

1/4 to 1/2 cup non-instant powdered milk or 1/2 to 1 cup instant

powdered milk

1 teaspoon pure vanilla or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon or nutmet

1/2 cup frozen, undiluted orange juice

magnesium carbonate, oxide, or other magnesium salt

Pour into a container and add the remainder of a quart of milk; cover

and keep refrigerated. Stir before using.

Other ingredients may be added: 1/4 cup of soy flour and/or wheat germ

will still further increase the protein content; 1 teaspoon of granular

kelp can supply iodine; banana, crushed pineapple, or any frozen,

undiluted fruit juice can vary flavor and furnish more calories. If milk

is not well tolerated, fruit juices or pure yogurt, predigested during

the culturing process, can be used as a base. When the entire quantity

is to be drunk immediately by a family, 1/4 teaspoon of a magnesium salt

should be added for each person, but magnesium changes the flavor if the

drink is allowed to stand. Magnesium may be obtained from a tablet or

stirred into an individual serving of pep-up. If low calories are

desired, only skim fresh and powdered milk, yeast, calcium, magnesium,

and yogurt can be combined with 1 teaspoon of oil, and the fruit or

juice omitted.

Persons who have digestive disturbances or are ill should take no more

than 1/4 cup of pep-up at each meal and/or mid-meal at first; even this

small amount should be sipped through a straw to prevent air-swallowing.

Individuals suffering from acute infections or ulcers or under severe

stress would do well to take 2/3 cup of this fortified milk (together

with perhaps 50 milligrams of pantothenic acid and 1,500 milligrams of

vitamin C) every 2 or 3 hours around the clock, even when they awake at

night; if supplements furnish their other nutritional requirements, no

foods need be eaten temporarily. For most persons, however, a single cup

of pep-up at breakfast does much to increase their general vitality. In

other respects, their menus may be quite conventional.
