Every once in a while the science of nutrition seems too puzzling and complicated for the everyday person to understand. AVhen doctors (and research workers) disagree, what Is left for the man in the street to do but to hold up his hands iu bewilderment? bewil-derment? Recently, In the same edition of a daily newspaper, on one page, appeared ap-peared headlines quoting a statement by a famous nutritionist that people were vitamin crazy that they were paying entirely too much attention to this in choosing their diet. On the next page was a quotation from another an-other equally famous nutritionist stating that as a people, we were on the verge of vitamin starvation. If we went further and read the text of the first statement we found, however, that the first authority had Dot discounted the fact that vitamins were necessary. He offered the information in-formation that it was possible to get most of these by the drug-store route by means of concentrated cod-liver oil for A and D, wheat germ or yeast for B, and by concentrating on one food source, such as oranges, for C. Somehow, it seems to me a more sane and orderly proceeding to choose in practice a varied diet which will provide us without too much special thought, the vitamin supply which both authorities agree we need. It is a consoling thought that if for any reason a diet must be so limited , that we cannot be sure of the vitamin supply, we can advance on the drug store and get some of the lacking essentials. In some cases, uncrer a physician's directions, we will add an extra supply to our diet. Down In Baltimore we find Doctor McCollum of Johns Hopkins advancing advanc-ing the theory that the provoking cause of pernicious anemia may be a lack of vitamin B. Doctor Fletcher Fletch-er of Toronto has had excellent results re-sults from treating cases of arthritis arth-ritis with concentrate of vitamin B. Docto- Howe of Boston and Doctor Hanke of Chicago have had success In treating cases of pyorrhea and dental caries with food containing large amounts of vitamin C. We are told that research in regard to the causes of the common cold point toward to-ward a lack of vitamin A. Common sense, then, indicates that we should attempt to choose a diet which is rich In vitamins, supple meriting it, if necessary, by concentrates concen-trates from the drug store and by nature's source of vitamin D the rays of the sun. It is unnecessary for us to pick out each food with reference to its special vitamin content. The usual rules for a sane diet apply. I must stress the Importance of liberal amounts of milk, vegetables, fruits, of some eggs and meat and of a padding pad-ding of fat, sugar and starch to make up the calories. No matter what news item you read, these basic facts hold good. |
