TEENAGE NUTRITION
If you are the mother of
one or more teenagers, you
don’t need to be told how much
youngsters can eat. Yet for
all their eating, surveys show
repeatedly that a great majority
of teenagers do not eat enough
of the right foods.
During adolescence, boysanc
girls go through a "growth
spurt” which usually lasts one
or two years. It is one of the
periods of greatest growth in
the shortest time span. During
adolescence, the body requires
extra nutrients. Youngsters
must have sound diets to build
well formed bodies, strong
bones, healthy nervous sys
tems and vitality.
Plan your meals for teen
agers to Include these essential
nutrients: protein to facilitate
growth and to build and repair
body tissues; minerals and vit
amins to keep the body correc
tly; fat and carbohydrates to
supply energy.
PICNIC PRECAUTION
Cookouts and picnics are de
lightful ways to enjoy summer
meals. But summertime calls
for extra attention to keeping
foods safe to eat. In fact, poor
food handling practices in tht
home any time of the year can
often cause illness in the fam
ily.
By stressing personal hy
giene for all family members
you can help protect them from
