We are come unto the going down of the sun, and at eventide we have seen light. Therefore we give thanks and praise to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit of God.

This programme records some of the experiments that have been carried out, explodes some popular fallacies, and gives an outline of the facts about diet, weight, and exercise.
