He then wrote the popular Letter on Corpulence, which advocated consumption of vegetables and loss of weight, at a time when vegetables were not a dietary staple, meat was the centrepiece of a proper meal and obesity was not considered a disease, but rather a mark of social status.Banting Related to Banting: Banting diet, Frederick BantingSynonyms for Bantingnoun Canadian physiologist who discovered insulin with CSynonyms- F.
