NUTRITION

& HEALTH

Nutrition in its relation to health and disease, forms the, sub- ject or an interesting article con- tributed by Dr. Il Stoo-yin," a member of the Nutrition Research Committee of Hongrong. The fol- lowing are excerpts from the art- Jcle:

Nutrition sometimes reads "good food." Live organisms obtain their nutrients through food to supply their bodies and then excrete the accumulated waste. This exchange of materials is called nutrition and requires the following five actions(1) Intake of food (2) digestion (3) absorption (4) re- placement (5) excretion.

Fraction Of Nutrition What Is the funcuou of muti- tlon? It is the replacement of the -old by the new. During the life of a body the nutrient element of good is ceaselessly being digested. absorbed, retained in the body (as blood and bones) or stored materials for heat production (as glucose).

Goal Of Health What is to be done to full the conditions of nutrition if one wants to reach the goal of health? Generally you know the sanitary conditions, about and the harm of overeating or underfeeding. Per- haps many of you do not know the requirements of nutriment in food and how to take them in propor- ton. The quality of the same is different from different sources, It is the same chemically but is different when used physiologically. Again, due to personal differences of digestion and absorption or due to the way. of cooking and storage the same nutriment may De caused to change. All of this may influence cur health.

Chinese Food

According to Professor Woo, Arst, the amount of animal pro- tein in Chinese food is too low; second, even if the plant protein taken is as good as animal protefu the total amount' consumed is less than that consumed by the Ameri- cans. He discussed thoroughly in his 'General View on Nutrition" the lack of phorphorous and cal cfum, and pointed cut the way for remedy.

Sickness

Any violation of the required conditions for health will cause poor development and weakness of the body in mild cases or sickness in severe cases. In comparison the two harmful effects are the same. However, sickness is easy to find out and can be taken care of. I the sickness is not long in dura- tion good health may be recovered without medical care. But the origin of weakness due to malan trition" is sometimes not easy to locate..

All the sickness arising from malnutrition can be entirely cured by improving the nutrient ele- ments without any need of medi- cine. Moreover, those who study nutrition must apply the know- ledge of it to keep up health and prevent diseases, Curing of dis- cases is secondary,

The public are strongly advised to make advantage of this offer of inoculation
