In 1931 Doris Grant became ill with a severe rheumatic condition which would not respond to orthodox treatment. Only after taking up Dr. Hay's food combining diet did she find her cure. She was the first emissary in the UK of the Hay Diet, and now in her 90s, the formidable Doris is still healthy with the Hay system. Her groundbreaking book, 'Food Combining for Life', written with Jean Joice, has sold over a million copies and has been translated into 15 languages. She lives in Poole, Dorset.
