The Doctor's Advice
In icsponse to a letter from, a
90-yeai-old man who wrote that
he had been losing weight in
spite of eating well, taking vita
mins and exercising regularly,
Di George Thosteson (Chicago
Sun - Times, April 9) replied:
“At your age, some loss of
weight is natuial apparently
n„tuie’s way of taking some of
the strain off our bones and the
lest of our organs as we get old
ei ”
He suggested a thorough phy
sical and noted that “it may be
just a matter of eating less and
burning up moie eneigy in exer
cise 01 othei activity than you
think tiy increasing your
Cdlone intake, cieam instead of
milk, moie butter or maigarine,
uchei desseits, maybe an extra
snack ”
