CLIFFORD C. ROBINSON PROTECTIVE FOODS In using the term protective foods, I have in mind the foods which are highly useful and necessary in giving children the elements needed for suc- cessful development and guarding them against food deficiencies, with body loss in weight and strength. Just how these protective foods do their work is a dietary fact of great importance. There is always the danger of a one-track diet. The white bread, meat, potato and “some sweet” type of diet, is just as dangerous as it is wholesome. The real needs of correct body building in all elements are not sup- plied by this group. They are neces- y and healthful, but must be amply supplemented by others which may be termed protective, They protect against loss in proper bone growth and against rly loss of the teeth, In general nutritive quali- BY SISTER MARY | (A daily menu for the stout and thin) | ;at and Lose Weight One-half grapefruit, 1 poached cgg, 12 sticks asparagus salad, 1 baked apple, % pound boiled mutton, 1 por- tion turnips, tomato salad, table- fspnons canned cherries, 6 thin slices gluten bread, 1, cup tea, 1 cup coffee, |1 glass skimmed milk. | Total calories, 906. | fat, 233; carbohydrates, |.0145 gram.
