- Charles_R._Attwood abstract "Dr. Charles Raymond Attwood (May 27, 1932 – September 8, 1998) was a board-certified pediatrician and Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics.Attwood was born near New Edinburg, Arkansas. He was the son of Mrs. Raymond Attwood. He received his Bachelor of Arts from Hendrix College in 1953, graduated from the University of Arkansas School of Medicine in 1958, and interned at Brook General Hospital in San Antonio, Texas. He served in the US Army as a pediatrician at Fort McClellan, Alabama, and completed his pediatric residence at Letterman General Hospital in San Francisco. After his army career, Attwood worked with Dr. Henry Bruin, specializing in infectious disease.In 1972, Attwood moved to Crowley, Louisiana, and opened a private practice.In the 1990s, Attwood was instrumental in defending some vegan parents whose children were removed by social workers from the California Department of Children’s Services.Attwood wrote health articles in national and European publications, and served as a writer and consultant for Medical Economics Magazine. Along with colleagues Dr. Dean Ornish, Dr. John McDougall and Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Attwood successfully petitioned the United States Department of Agriculture to include a statement in its Guidelines for Americans that a vegetarian diet promotes health.Attwood published Dr. Attwood’s Low-fat Prescription for Kids in 1995, in which he advocated a low-fat, plant-based diet for children and cited evidence that such a diet is necessary for children to avoid heart disease, stroke, certain cancers, and diabetes. Dr. Benjamin Spock wrote the Foreword. Attwood took a leave of absence from his practice to promote his book, and traveled over the ensuing three and a half years until his death.In 1996, as a consultant for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Attwood exposed the Gerber Baby Food practice of diluting fruits and vegetables with water, sugar, and modified starch. Gerber’s market share dropped from 85% to 65% in the months following a national news conference on the practice. Shortly thereafter Gerber discontinued this 40-year practice, changing their labels to reflect 100% fruit and 100% vegetables.In June 1997, Attwood was sued for malpractice by the mother of a child who died from complications of diabetes.Attwood established and helped build the vegetarian website, VegSource.org.Dr. Benjamin Spock later hired Attwood to work as a nutritional consultant for the last revision of his own classic bestseller, Baby and Child Care, released in July 1998.Attwood’s audio series, The Gold Standard Diet: How to Live to be 100, was released nationally to bookstores in 1998.In October 1998, Hohm Press published Attwood’s book, A Vegetarian Doctor Speaks Out, some of which grew out of letters from people who contacted him through his website.Attwood died at his home in Greenville, South Carolina, at the age of 66 from complications of a malignant brain tumor.".
