Show WHAT TO EAT is T and WHY loudl jou dl Cheese Prince of proteins noted food authority tells why you should eat more of the food that thai Is so rich in protective elements by C HOUSTON GOUDISS 6 east st new york city Fd FOR OR many years men with an inventive turn of mind hakul havu dreamed reamed of creating a product that would concentrate aall all the important food elements in a small tablet or capsule they have been inspired by a desire to simplify meal prep without sacrificing nutritive values no one has ever succeeded 1 in making a synthetic food that would both satisfy hunger and properly nourish the body but all the while the researchers have overlooked the magnificent possibilities of cheese one of the most concentrated nourishing satisfying and versatile of foods k cheese the body builder cheese is the most concentrated source ot of protein known moreover the protein is ot of such high type that it if it were the only body building food in the diet given in sufficient quantities it would be adequate not V only to maintain life but to support normal growth one half pound of american cheddar cheese will supply all the protein required by an adult for an entire day cheese the energy food in addition to its rich store of protein cheese is also a fine source of energy A cube of cheddar cheese one and one eighth inches square provides calories or the equivalent in energy value of the lean meat of one lamb chop or one medium sized potato one half pound of cheddar cheese furnishes 1000 calories about half the daily requirement of an adult leading a sedentary life cheese for mineral salts because milk is rich in minerals it follows that cheese which is made from milk contains these precious substances in hi highly ehly concentrated cent rated form it is an excellent source of calcium the mineral which is responsible for building strong bones and sound teeth and for keeping the heart beating beating normally A one and one fourth inch cube of american cheddar cheese contains as much calcium as an 8 ounce glass of milk the individual who does not care for milk as a beverage can easily obtain the necessary calcium from cheese but it is practically impossible to get adequate amounts ol of this mineral without est either her milk or cheese in rennet cheese phosphorus as well as calcium is present in the same proportions as in milk but is much more highly concentrated As in milk these min minerals are in a form that is most nearly perfect for easy assi assimilation mi rennet curd cheese is always high in sulphur and fairly high in iron furthermore the iron is in the most readily assimilated form cheese and vitamins cheese is a splendid source of vitamin A which promotes growth and increases resistance to disease it is especially important for eye health and is necessary to prevent the affliction known as night blindness the amount of vitamin A varies with the type of cheese but both american cheddar and parmesan

expect to find cheese appearing on the menu in some form every day but though the annual production of cheese in the united states exceeds pounds it should be much greater the annual per capita tion lion is only alfe 5 pounds a woe V fully small figure when we consider the wide benefits that would result from its greater use the failure of american homemakers to use cheese in the amounts that they should is I 1 believe due to three factors first a lack ol of knowledge concerning its splendid food values second a belief in the old superstition that cheese is not easy to digest and third failure to take advantage of the many ways in which it can he be served digestibility of cheese the th e foregoing outline of its many food values should give a new concep conception tion of its place in the diet As to its digestibility studies ies by the united states department of agriculture have entirely disproved the fallacy that it is not completely digestible it was found that on an average about 93 95 per cent of the protein and over 93 95 per cent of the fat of cheese were di digested diestel 1 ested and absorbed the various kinds of cheese tested were found to compare favorably in digestibility with the food of an average mixed diet it was also demonstrated experimentally peri mentally that there was practically no difference between cheese and meat with respect to ease of digestion at least in such quantities as are commonly eaten there was also a notion that because it is so high in food value cheese should only be eaten in small quantities but scientific tests have proven that cheese may be eaten by normal individuals in large quantities as the principal source of protein with entirely beneficial effects upon health A place of cheese in the diet there is a case on record of a young man who lived for two years on a daily diet consisting of one half pound of cheese a one pound loaf of whole wheat bread and two pounds of fruit while this limited diet might prove monotonous no ro to some people it is possible to utilize cheese as the easiest method of providing important food value varying the diet and simplifying meal preparation for there are more than distinctive varieties of cheese listed by the department of agriculture ranging from the smooth delicately flavored cream cheese which may be given to very young children to the sharp tangy cheese which is especially popular with men fortunately almost every type can be purchased in packaged form in sizes that are convenient for large and small families making it possible to enjoy a wide variety Y cheese can be used as a main main dish in salads or sandwiches as a sauce lasauce for vegetables as a dessert it is desirable at the same time to serve bulky foods such as fabits and vegetables cheese may also be combined advantageously with carbohydrate foods this is ia because the balanced diet requires more carbohydrates than protein and cheese is essentially a protein food interchangeable with meats and fish 0 C houston goudiss 1938 31 21 |
