Advice.
SIMPLE EXERCISES
London.
Throw away your semi-starva- tion, slimming charts and eat and eat-the best way to slim is just té eat normal food slowly.
This is the advice of Dr. W. G. Anderson, a famous American die tetic specialist.
In an article in the current issue. of the "Medical Times" he de-
clares that the secret of slimming can be summed up in two words-- "Eat Slowly."
Slow ealing breaks the food up info smaller particles he says and! thus presents a larger surface of contact for the thousands of tiny nerves in the mouth which
ате
called taste-buds." This means that, the sense of taste (which overns appetite) is satisfied with,
a, far smaller amount of food than when meals are eaten- quickly.
To get perfect results from any method of slimming. Dr. Anderson advices:--
1. Do not try to lose weight quickly-be content to lose be- tween 4 lb. and I lb. every -week.
2. Do these exercises 30 times a
day.
[(a) Stand upright with the head
as high as possible.
b) Arch the body to the limit e) Place the shoulder blade flat
against the back.
d). Draw in abdominal muscle aa
far as possiblé.
(e) Breathe deeply.-Reuter.
