This well-worn copy of “Fasting: The Ultimate Diet” by Allan Cott is a testament to the enduring fascination with fasting as a weight-loss method. Published in 1975, at the height of the counterculture movement’s embrace of alternative lifestyles and health practices, this book offered a comprehensive guide to the art of fasting. Cott, a proponent of natural healing and holistic wellness, presents fasting not merely as a diet but as a spiritual and physical rejuvenation practice rooted in ancient traditions. With its dog-eared pages and creased spine, this copy bears the marks of a well-loved and frequently consulted resource, perhaps passed down through generations of readers seeking a path to better health and self-discovery. For collectors, this edition offers a glimpse into the cultural zeitgeist of the 1970s, when the search for alternative paths to wellness captivated a generation disillusioned with conventional medicine and eager to explore the wisdom of the past.
