BASIC FOODS ARE
NECESSARY FOR
HEALTHFUL LIVING
The food- outlined a? ba.-ic for
the body needs are those which
each |«art of the IhhIv requires
to perform its- .special ta-k or
ta-k.-. If some part of the body
fails to Ret the kind of things
it needs for proper functioning,
that part cannot operate at its
best. Fveity par^ of the b.<dy
*>eems to have marvelous powers
of overcoming odd.- against it
and thousrh the essential injrml-
ient.- may be lacking in a diet,
the body usually manages to keep
performing its duties for a long
period, despite the abuse.
Without the proper vitamins
and minerals, however, some part
of the body is not functioning up
to par. And «uch is the inter re-
lationship of the body, that when
one part fails to function at its
'best, sooner or later by chain re-
action other parts of the body,
too, will have to change their
function, either to carry the load
for the original source of trouble
i>r because the other parts are not
receiving the material they need.
It is quite true that all people
do not have the same need- of
foods. Some are born with organ",
that have not the capacity for
proper functioning: and others
develop some sort of illness that
changes the function of the organ.
But even at that, the basic re-
quirements which are called the
"seven basic foods" make up the
normal, adequate diet and any
chanpe in the diet that is made
by the doctor is made with that
diet in mind, as it must be applied
to each individual.
Two people can eat the same
foods, the >ame amounts of the
same foods, and 'one will prow
fat on the diet while the other
is proof that it is not the intake
r>f food alone which governs the
size of a person. Consumption of
the seven basic foods is essential
to pood health; after consumption
cornes combustion, the uay i nwhich
the body uses those essential foods
it is given.
Through these years when you
eat what you want without any
thought except for your pleasure ir,
food that tastes good, you probably
do not give your body all the things
that are considered essential. And
through these years some parts of
your body are probably not re-
ceiving the ingredients that keen it
Jn fit working order: after years
of abuse, you can see that some part
of your body may be slightly nut
of whack, not cornpletelv disabled
hut enoujrh off the track to keep
vou from feeling your best.
Overeating or putting on excess
weight overworks many organs of
the body. Those organs have ad-
justed themselves as well as possible
to the strain you've put on them.
If you suddenlv change the diet
completely by picking up some fad
reducing diet, you can see further
that such a drastic ehange on diet
will effect the whole hody and not
just the digestive system.
That is whv your doctor and all
his fellow-workers repeat atrain and
atrnin not to take up some wild diet
that is guaranteed to take off a
pound n day or even five pounds a
•week. T'nless an emergency exists,
the most weight that should lie re-
duced is two to two-and-a-half
nounds a week. Since 1.5 to 20
Hounds above normal weight for
your aare ami hejjrht is considered
overweight, vou can se that a re-
ducing diet should be a 7 to 10 week
affair, never a IO-day-wonder.
The onlv way to reduc- your
weiirht without threatening vour
health is to eat less of the seven
basic funds, including some fat,
though that is what you will cut
the most. For all pur noses von
must eat less of those foods than
you have been eating until you get
down to the proper weight and then,
though you may e«t a little more
than you were while reducing, vou
must eat less than you did whik
yon were TMittimr on extra weight.
'''here is no short cut to redueinir
without an accomnanvine threat to
vour health. \ reducing program
r'twins a change in the amount of
f'ftd vou w'll eonsume from that
time forward. You need «.orne ex-
ercise while reducing nut onlv to
hejp a little in using up the stored
fat but mainly to keep vour iiody
'rom getting fllhhv when the
fat is token off parts of your an-
atomy. Yoii need vitamins In the
food you eat, which vou will get In
the Keren basic food': if some of
those foods must in- eliminated from
vour d'-t. you will need siniple-
mentary vitamins to keen your body
In nroper order during the reducing
regime.
And you must have sufficient
hulk of food In vour diet to keen
vou from geMing constipated. This
last item is the one most often over-
looked In the popular reducing diets,
accountinr for months and years of
discomfort when the excess weight
mav no longer be a problem.
The < nlv one of the seven h fe
food* wHUf' is itstialfv excluded
from an authorised reducing diet Is
cereal. All sweets wilt normallv be
cut out. Including randy and sugars,
carbonated beverage* and sweetened
drinks, with sarrharln used in sweet-
en. Thourh bread will he Included,
hot breads, roffee cakes, hot cakes,

and wi are sure you .sill all want
to attend.
It has been rumored that Price

dress the club sometime in October.
That put> the local club in the same
class with Dallas, Houston, San
Vntonio, etc., to say nothing of

The I.ion- Program Committee
is certainly doing a good job of
landing really good programs for
tlu* club this year. Proof of that is
the attendance we see out on meet-
ing nights' \nd further proof is
that there are a number of citizens
who have been standing on the out-
side, and who ai^- expressing a
desire to get on the inside! The
Club is certainly open to new
members, and we will welcome them
with open paws and the I .ion's
Hoar'
of its leaders. Hatk of every 1.ion-

imagination and foresight of its
leaders. Leaders who Coiitinuall> use
their imagination cannot be thro!
tied for they possess the will to
rise above criticism, alaive failure,
and above temporary defeat.

serts.
Avocado and dried fruit are not
part of a reducing diet nor are
fried meats and such fatty meats
as goose, jiork and sausagi or fish
canned in oil. Cream soups and
thickened soups won't help you take
off weight and dried beans and
dried jieas are not considered slim-
ming. Catsup, chili sauce, cream
sauce, gravy, nuts, olives, pickles,
relish, and alcohol are tai o when
an honest attempt at taking the
pounds off is underway.
There are a few other broad ge
neral omissions in the reducing diet,
but those listed above are the es-
sentials. If you just omitted those
f<a ds and kept on with your re-
gular diet you'd probably find your-
self losing some excess poundage as
time goes by. That would probably
be the least painful method but
would take a little more time than
others.
