Houston Goudiss Explaii Fat or Thin; Offers Ti Bb> c. housi 0 NEARLY every adult, \ cern. Thin people step on that they have gained a pound weigh themselves several tir that the arrow will point to a cases, the reason for this a desire to look better. But tl attain the weight at which one feels better, for few people realize that to weigh neither too much nor too little is one of the best possible aids to buoyant health. Moreover, the secret of weight control for normal individuals lies in the kind and amount of food con sumed. The science of nutrition teaches us that all body fat originates as surplus fuel . . . that is, food which has been consumed over and above the immediate require ments of the body machine. It there fore follows that in general the prob lem of gaining or losing weight is concerned with an increase or reduc tion in the total fuel value of the diet. Shortage or Surplus of Fuel Those who find it difficult, after 30, to avoid taking on excess pounds must learn to reduce the total fuel intake. Otherwise, they may find themselves burdened with a mounting surplus of fat, which not only destroys beauty, but impairs health, and tends to decrease both mental and physi cal efficiency. On the other hand, those who feel that they must struggle to keep their weight up to normal . . . who declare that they simply cannot gain, no mat ter how much they eat, should acquaint themselves with the high-caloric foods and make a per sistent effort each day to eat a little more than enough to meet their needs. If a gain is achieved, the result will be well worth the effort. For just as overweight is a handicap to health and efficien cy, so have nutritionists observed that physical efficiency may be definitely decreased when the weight falls more than 10 per cent below the average for one’s height. It is often said that it is easier to lose weight than to gain it, and in many cases this is true. For the overweight person who con sistently cuts down the fuel value of the diet, should, under normal circumstances, be able to reduce gradually, comfortably and effec tively. But the individual who is underweight often has a small ap petite and therefore has little de sire to eat the increased quanti ties of food that are required in order to gain. Influence of Body Build Nutritionists have observed that many people who find it difficult to gain have a tall, slender type of body build. It has been deter mined that in people of this type, the digestive tract is usually short er than in those having a stocky build. Moreover, they tend to be more tense, more active and of a more nervous temperament. As a result, the passage of food through \ Why Let Yourself Get Constipated? Why endure those dull headachy days due to constipation, plus the inevitable trips to the medicine chest, if you can avoid both by getting at the cause of the trouble ?

This crunchy toasted breakfast cereal is the ounce of prevention that’s worth a pound of emer gency relief.

Fat people sometimes les a day, trusting each time slightly lower figure. In many bsorbing interest is vanity—a le real objective should be to ♦-— the digestive tract may be so rap id that it leaves the body before all the available nutrients can be utilized. At the same time, these active people tend to burn up more of their food for energy, so it is not surprising that they fail to store body fat, unless the diet is especially planned to meet their needs. Concentrated Foods Desirable The well balanced diet, with its full quota of minerals and vita mins is basic to good health for all. But in order to produce a gain in weight, the diet of indi viduals belonging to the slender type should be composed of easily digested foods, which can be uti lized by the body with a minimum of effort; and it should include generous amounts of concentrated and highly nourishing foods. Included in this classification are eggs, cheese, cream, butter or margarine, bacon, bread, cere als, cream soups, custards, ice cream, rice and tapioca puddings. The addition of two or three glasses of milk to the regular meals will be found useful in in creasing the fuel value of the diet. Milk also belongs in the reducing diet, but there it is used to replace other high caloric foods. Fruit juices will be found useful in stimulating the appetite of those who desire to gain; and the fuel value of these beverages may be increased by the addition of milk or cream. An Extra Meal Very often it is possible to get extra nourishment into the diet by way of a light lunch in mid morning, mid-afternoon or both provided it does not interfere with the appetite for the regular meals. This may take the form of fruit juice and crackers; malted milk; cocoa, egg nog or plain milk. A between-meal snack is regarded as especially desirable for thin people whose work is fa tiguing. It will help them to sus tain energy and prevent them from coming to their regular meals too tired to enjoy or profit by food. Importance of Rest Since thin people have a ten dency to tire quickly, they are ad vised to get plenty of rest. There should be long hours of sleep at night, and nutritionists have also observed that the food is opt to be better utilized if a short rest is taken before meals. ©— WNU—C.
