Professor Friedberger investigated the effect of cooking on food given to white rats, first in connection with a mixed diet. He established that cooking diminished the nutritional value and that the food became more impaired the longer the cooking process was continued. Animals fed raw food grew better than those with cooked food, and, of the latter, those animals grew better that had received food cooked a short time than those that were fed food that had been cooked a long time.
