Show Tired Students Lack Nutritious Foods Average students wonder why they are tired and have no! strength around fourth period. It sounds like a breakfast of toast, milk and a lunch of hamburgers, pop and candy. An adequate amount of selected nutritional food is essential for correct functioning of the body. Chili, coconut cream pie, hamburgers ham-burgers and ice cream, if eaten each day for lunch, will sooner or later give a person indigestion. There are so many good and wholesome things that can be eaten in the place of these rich foods. In a lunch from home, crisp carrots car-rots or celery will add a new flavor to that dry sandwich. Carrots Car-rots are rich in vitamin A. Honey graham crackers, filled with peanut butter and jam, would be a suprise in any lunch, while cup custard will give all the needed need-ed vitamins. Chocolate milk or just plain milk is better than the bottle of pop. Hard-boiled eggs can furnish variety in sandwiches. Eat oranges and grapefruit, not the large ones, but the small juicy ones for a lunch. Why not try having a lunch with more all-around nutrients in it, to find that long-lost pep-appeal that is needed to prevent listless-ness listless-ness and drowsiness during the afternoon. |
