In Hiifll-clcnl Hiifll-clcnl If we have In mind nn example exam-ple of each. The most expensive nnd complex food wliloh Is necessary neces-sary for health In prololn, found In meats, eggs, milk, I fish, deans and peas. Starch Is found In vegetables, tin; potato doing rich In starch. Sugar Is found In fruits In the natural state, In honey, and In all dried fruits; mineral matter we obtain ' from the wafer we drink and the vegetables vege-tables we eat. I As everything we eat, perhaps wild no exception, has possibilities of harming harm-ing this wonderful machine, If It Is not properly nuistlciited, so starch, the best of food, If Indulged In In too large quantities, will also harm the body, roods however good, In wrong eomhlnatloiis, will cause Intestinal trouble. Protein foods nt low heat will putrefy, giving off the most deadly dead-ly of poisons, hut with stared low dear, sued as surrounds the food In tde digestive tract, will cause fermenta-i fermenta-i t Ion and an acid which Is the dest of ' disinfectants. As tl Intestinal tract Is Indabited by different kinds of hae-teria hae-teria up Into the hundreds, each giving giv-ing off Its own peculiar poison, dead or alive, one may appreciate a little of wliat we owe to our starcdy foods, i These starch granules, when submitted sub-mitted to moisture and high temperature, tempera-ture, swell and burst and after beinj cooked become a paste easily attacked at-tacked by the digestive Juices. In the mouth, by mixing with the saliva In proper mastication, begins the lirst stage of digestion and a very important one. Too much starch nnd sugar causes excess of weight. A meal of dread, rice, and potatoes with a tapioca pudding pud-ding Is one with far too much starch. When more starch Is eaten tdan l. needed for the body uses, It is scored as siignr In the liver or around tjie heart, causing all sorts of disorders. Any organ smothered by fat Is Inactive Inac-tive and thus throws the body out of balance. You will find dozens of combinations, combina-tions, surprisingly simple, that you have never tried. |
