This cookbook was written and published by the Super Health Aluminum Co. Limited who were located in Toronto, Ontario in the 1930s. The company's head office and factory were at 107 McGill Street but the company also had several branches across Canada. Super Health Aluminum Co. Limited promoted healthy cooking methods through their  innovative products and stressed the importance of healthy eating. Other versions of The Health of Your Family Depends Entirely Upon You were published between 1946 and 1949. It is unclear whether this company still exists or was rebranded under a new name; however, their cookbooks can be found in many libraries and personal collections across Ontario. Aluminum based products were quite popular in the early part of the 20th century, so Super Health Aluminum Co. Ltd. would have faced a lot of competition, especially from the Aluminum Goods Manufacturing Company and West Bend Aluminum Company which were American companies that also specialized in aluminum cookware.
