NUTRITION '
In our daily life
Ry Lucia F. Woile
Oh, how we hate to get up in ’
the morning: this is but only one <
complaint this writer hears quite '
frequently, among a variety of
others such as for instance: my 1
eyelids are so swollen every
morning, I can hardly see and I |
have to be practically dragged out
of bed. — When inquiring as to '
the Breakfast the complaint
had. we hear most of the time: oh
that?, I just grab a cup of coffee 1
before going to thb office and '
then people wonder why they
feel all put of sorts. How about
picturing ourselves driving down
the street in our car without any
fuel in it? We would not get very (
far, now would we? And just as
the automobile cannot start the
I 1
day without extra fuel, neither!
can we. Breakfast is the time
when we lay the nutritional foun
dation for the activities ahead of
us during the next 12 to 16 hours.
And too, we may be smarter at II
am., if we had a good breakfast
before 8 a.m. This is borne out by
। recent research and new surveys
.of food habits at the States Uni
versity of lowa. Researcher set
up carefully controlled breakfast
; eating experiments, Comparing
1 the effects of different types of I
breakfast and no breakfast at all. ;
Some students who barely scraped
through scholastically achieved!
good grades when they started the i
day with a complete meal. Boys ,
who were listless and languid in ;
the late morning without break- ).
fast (and men who were morning |]
grouches) changes their behavior '
after a good first meal. Most im- j,
portant food value at breakfast I
was protein — from eggs, meat, I;
fish, cheese and other dairy pro- !
ducts. Everyone needs irreplace-l,
able nutrition provided by a high- !,
protein breakfast — remember,
our body has been fasting all
night. A high-protein breakfast
is leas likely to add pounds than
any other meal of the day. It
raises blood-sugar level from its
low morning point, nourishes and
repairs every tissue of the bod"— >
and, not to be ignored, gets the I
day off to a good start. Extra pro- '
teins are a help to reducers be- 11
cause they stimulate the body '
burn fuel. All food increases ]
body meths holism, but protein ।
foods cause the greatest rise. And ;
right there is one reason break- ,
fast is an important meal. There .
is an advantage in elevating ones
metabolism in the morning. Pro
tei nin the morning meal increases 1
this advantage. — So-called blood
pressure fatigue is noticed
early in the morning because
of the low' wrop blood pres
sure takes during the night,
when we are relaxed. Varying j
according to physical activities of |
sleeping or walking, your blood !
pressure is a measure of our j
heart's activity in pumping blood. ;
The resistance created by the size ■
and hardness of blood-vessel walls '
exerts its influence as well. Any I
time we interfere with the blood j
conveyor system, we are causing I
our heart to do more work. And '
in causing it to do more work, to
beat more rapidly, we wear it out
sooner. Our heart needs more
oxygen than it is getting to beat
I regularly. Morning fatigue is a
' warning sign. If we wake up ex
j hausted, it may very well be low
blood pressure. Circulating blood’s
| chief function is to supply oxygen
;and nutritive elements to billions
'of tiny cells that make up all
body structures, and to remove
waste matter from these same
cells. Our bloodstream delivers
freshly oxygenated, red blood go
ing from the heart to our cells
via tubes known as arteries. Then
'it removes w-astes from these !
same cells, deposits them into the !
proper organs for disposition, and ,
returns to the heart byway of th»|
veins. In a sense, this can be lik
ened to the plumbing system in
ones home. Low water pressure
would not keep the plumbing in
our house operating properly
neither will low r blood pressure
allow for one's normal activity.—
However, nearly anyone could se
cure morning pep within a month
by proper eating and the use of a
complete and natural vitamin and
mineral food supplement. — Oxy
gen and lactic acid are two of the
most essential elements in the
feeding of our heart. Lactic acid
is consumed and burned by the
heart muscle in enormous quanti
ties: but before it can be fully
utilized as food by the heart,
vitamin Bl (thiamine) must be
present as a catalyst and stimu
lant. This vitamin is the flame
needed to change the fuel, lactic
acid, into the kind of heat energy
required by the heart. While fish,
roe. liver, kidney, chicken, heart,
lean beef, brains, codfish, whole
milk, mutton, egg yolk, and sar
dines are especailly rich in vita
min 81, there are many suits and
vegetables which contain it in
lesser amounts. The body is un
able to store this vitamin for any
great length of time; it must be
supplied daily in ample amounts.
It is best to cook the thiamin-rich
foods as little as possible; and not
to soak them in water. Vitamin
Bl fruits and vegetables which
can be served raw include cab
bage. carrots, lettuce, tomatoes,
watercress, avocadoes, canteloupe.
bananas, dates, figs, grapes, grape
fruit, apricots, apples, oranges,
pineapple and pears. — There is
no need at all for us to feel list
less and tired every morning if we
just learn, that we must nourish
our body correctly and punctu
ally, at all times.

Saw Maintenance
G. E. Mixon of this city has
completed a special, training
course in the proper mainten
ance of saw' chain, bars and sproc
kets. Under the sponsorship of
Oregon Saw Chain Corp, Port
land, Oregon, this training is
part of a nation-wide service pro
gram to provide chain saw' deal
ers with the latest “know-how’”
in cutting chain and accessories.
The an.nouncemen' w’as made re
cently in Portland. Orgeon, by
G. L. McDowall, Sales Manager
of the company.
Qualification is based upon
; completion of a factory-sponsor
led training course by Mixon
I Chain Saw" Co. service person
jnel. The local firm handles Home
lite and McCullough chain saws
' besides Oregon chain and ac
, cessories in this area.
j “With increasing numbers of
high-speedy, direct-drive chain
[saws being used by both proses
; sional and non-professional tim
| ber workers, correct chain filing
and maintenance is more import
ant than ever,” McDowell stated
in commenting on the qualifica
tion of G. E. Mixon as an Oregon (
Task Force Service unit.
“Manfacturers have made big
strides in engineering more
horsepower and less weight into
the newer model chain saws.
Yet even a few minutes of chain
misuse, or incorrect chain filing
and servicing, can counteract all
the efficiency built into a new'
saw. and reduce its productivity
to almost nothing.
“Oregon Saw Cham Corp, is
i proud to include G. E. Mixon as
one of the Orgeon Task Force
I Service Group. ,
