Let's Fight Food Fads,
Urges Nutrition Specialist
By Elaine A. Stueber
Extension Nutrition Specialist
University of Georgia
College of Agriculture
j There ate more food faddists
and quacks in the United States
: today than ever besot e
Ten million Americans are
spending one-half billion dol
lars on miracle medicines
which claim to pep them up,
• make them thinner overnight,
jor make them more attractive
land popular. If responsible per
sons don’t act to stop this
spread of nutrition nonsense
there is every reason to be
lieve that this menace to pub
lic health will increase.
There are many things which I
can be done to help control i
nutrition misinformation. The j
most important control how- !
ever. is an enlightened public. !
So, one of the first things you I
can do to stop food f add ism is 1
to remember the facts about
food.
Food is one of the basic i
needs for good health. It pro
vides the materials necessary
for the body to grow Vitamins
and minerals are important,
but they are practically worth
less in the body without car
bohydrates, fats, protein, wa- i
ter, and oxygen.
Food can help give resistance
to disease because in a healthy
body the defenses against in
fection are greater than in one
. I which is run down. A good diet
, is not. however, a guarantee I
I that you will never be sick. In j
' ’ short, food is necessary, but it 1
I cannot work miracles, and anv-
I one who says food or a tablet
! containing special ingredients
I taken from fond will cute all
U your aches and pains is not
telling the truth.
Here are some tell-tale signs
for recognizing the quack or
faddist. The faddist implies
that his product will cute any
thing and everything. He uses
a "secret” formula or process
. in his product. The faddist will
> also claim that scientists and
medical Vnen are behind the
• times and that they are afraid
to accept his so-called dis
coveries. If you hear or read
. an advertisement which makes
. any of these claims—beware!
Ask someone who knows about
nutrition before you buy.
Here are some other things
Delight your family and
guests with imaginative new
arrangements of paper napkins.
You can think of many differ
ent settings yourself—but here
are a few ideas to get you
started:
— Fold napkins like peaked
hats and let them stand at at
tention before each plate
—Arrange them in peaks in
' each guest’s water glass.
—Take large napkins, and
add a touch of your own. For
. example, you might make an
| edging of heavy paper lace,
j contrasting fringe or a color
ful fruit or flower cut from a
magazine

you can do to help prevent food
faddism:
1. Refuse to buy any vitamin
I preparation unless it is recom
i mended by your physician.
2. Report any suspicious ad
vertisements of food products
to the Better Business Bureau,
the Food and Drug Admini
stration, or the Public Health
Department.
3. Beware of so-called ex
perts in the field of nutrition
Make sure the person has been
professionally trained at a re
cognized college or university
before accepting his advice.
4. Refuse to spend your hard
i earned money on unnecessary
| "miracle” foods. Keep up to
date on food facts. Remember.
| the best way to get vitamins
। and minerals as well as other
nutrients is in the packages
’ provided by nature — good
i wholesome food.

Teenagers Respond
To Farm Bureau's
Safety Program
Georgia teenagers are con
cerned with the state highway '
safety record and have their
own ideas on means of reduc
ing the unpleasant accident >
death rate.
Georgia Farm Bureau Presi
dent, Harry L. Brown, today
! made that observation on re
i viewing statements of teen
■ agers participating in tlie Fed
| eration’s highway safety essay j
। program. Teenage winners werei
announced today.
“Actual results of auto races'
are death, maimed bodies, and I
.heartbreak for the families of j
i the participants as well as for
those who happen to be in the
j path of ihe dragsters,” Miss
Rd wards said.
She declared that of the total
i fatal car accidents, “One out of
eight involves teen-agers,” and
; added: "The number of teen
, age drivers on the road today
I is more than six million; and
' out of this number, two million
PAGE TWENTY-SEVEN
will be involved in some sort
of car accident”.
The top awaad winner was
critical of the basic attitudes
instilled by some parents on
highway safety. She saw value
in high school driver educa
tion, declaring that experienca
shows that the trained driver*
have fifty percent fewer acci
dents than those who are un
trained. Miss Edwards said that
in Geotgia the actual rate re
duction was H 2 percent fewer
accidents for the few school*
where driver education U
available in the state.

If you were to witness +ha
control room activity of a mis
sile shoot you might marvel as
the dials, controls, connections
and message-sending apparatus
necessary to get the bird off
its pad. However, the body you
pack around so matter-of-factly
contains a control and message
system so complex as to make
a missile effort look like kinder
garten stuff.
The body contains billions of
nerve cells, or neurons, with
billions of connections. Around
the outside of the cerebrum, the
largest part of the brain, are
about nine billion neurons. Since
it is necessary for each of these
cells to make connection with
several other cells, you can
readily understand the fantastic
number of connections involved
in this one area of the humae
system.
You can readily understand,
also, the importance of accura
cy in the filling of prescriptions.
