The Journal of Natural Hygiene was published from October 1954 to the Summer of 1957. It was the first health journal published by the NHA, then called The American Natural Hygiene Society, and was introduced at its Sixth Annual Convention held at The Morrison Hotel in Chicago. Dr. Christopher Gian-Cursio was the Editor, and his fellow ANHS Co-Founders, Drs. Herbert Shelton, Gerald Benesh and William Esser served as Associate Editors. In the President’s Message in the first issue, ANHA President Gerald Benesh stated “The Journal of Natural Hygiene will be our medium of contact with one another and a means of disseminating the truths of normal living. We hope to make this journal the epitome of health education and we will strive to maintain a standard worthy of and equal to the truths of normal living.”
