Brwora dp. Bellefonte, Pa., April 25, 1930. Your, THE FIRST CONCERN. Methuselah ate what he found his plate, And mever, as people do now, Did he note the amount of the caloric count— He ate it because it was chow. He wasn't disturbed, as at dinner he sat, * Destroying a To think it was fat, Or a couple of vitamines shy. He cheerfully chewed every species of food, Untroubled by worries or fears Lest his health might be hurt by on roast or a pie, lacking in granular some fancy dessert— And he lived over nine hundred years! Of one type or another, the muscles have most to do with the makeup of the body. The heart is a muscle, or a mass of muscles. Almost all of the substance of the alimentary tract consists of muscles. These contract in waves, pushing the food through the canal. The organs that are mot muscle are surrounded by muscles. If the muscles are weak and flabby and relaxed, they cannot do the required work of digestion. They must be hard, tense and strong, in order that we may have good health. The only way to keep these mus- cles strong is to use them, Vigor- ous exercise every day for everyone must be the rule if the muscular “tone” is to be maintained. Proper food must be the rule. We need certain roughage in food, bulky foods, the great part of which travels through the colon and en- courages the muscular action ot the bowels. This effect is known as ‘peristal- sis,” that wave-like action of the muscles of the abdomen. These bulky foods are necessary, in the propertion of three to “one, to stimulate the muscles of the howels to proper action. _Let us consider this peristaltic movement in the intestines. Like other muscles unless they are given work to do, the intestinal muscles become flabby and weak. The muscles making up the outer layers of the intestines run length- wise, while those on the inside are ring-shaped. Both sets work to- gether in a wonderful way produc- ing wave-like motions which carry the food along through the intes- tines. Fruits and vegetables, with their skins, aid greatly in stimulating tnis action. Also the unrefined wheat and oats are helpful in pre- venting constipation. The acids of fruits are stimulat- ing to the intestinal tract, besides having great value in their mineral and vitamin content. All fruits ex- cept bananas, which otherwise are valuable, are beneficial in exciting peristalsis and figs and prunes are especially good. There are some foods such as honey, molasses, cauliflower, spinach and onions, that causes a slight gas formation in the intestines. “There is nothing about this to wor- over. Indeed this is a helpful condition in cases of constipation, Chronic constipation leads to or accompanies some serious diseases. Cancer, chronic appendicitis, dis- placed organs and deformities are certainly not benefited by obstinate constipation. There are plenty of authorities to charge constipation with having a real part in their production. —_While it has always been WoO- men’s work to cook food for the household, it must be admitted that when men get right down to it they make excellent cooks also. But that any group of men should undertake a course in cook- ing as part of their regular work may come as a surprise to you. And that this group of men should be professional men, doctors, may still further surprise you. And yet a news item some months ago announced that the medical students of John Hopkins university will be given a course in cooking. Now whilst Hopkins is not the oldest medical college in the United States it ranks with the highest and that it thinks it necessary for a medical student to know how to cook, is an indication of how very important is food and its prepara- tion, for sick folks. The news item stated further “The importance of diet in the treatment of disease is generally rec- ognized. Students should be taught not only what food to pre- scribe for their future patients but also how it should be prepared to make it digestible and tasty.” Now the cooking end is most important and these new methods whereby the juices in which food is cooked are retained, means that the patient gets the full value in cal- ories of the food cooked, and also the vitamins. . Food is now prepared in a way that makes digestion easy. Howev- er the other point, its taste to the palate, how the patient wants or looks forward to eating, is just as important as the quality, cooking, and digestibility of the food. —Read the Watchman and get all the news.
