Ever wondered if you could live on milk and honey?

Haydak (1936) described a study in which he continued normal work for a
12-week period on a diet consisting solely of milk and honey. No subjective or
clinical problems were noted, except a need for ascorbic acid supplementation.
Later (Haydak et al, 1944), five adults alternated 1-week test periods with
1-week normal diet for 4 weeks. The test diet, milk and honey, was
supplemented with thiamine, ascorbic acid, and iodide. No effect on normal
health and activity was noted.
