As a nation, New Zealand has a SWEET TOOTH In other words, we go too much for sweets, cakes and pastry, which crowd out of our diet more important health-giving and body building foods. For years .we haye been telling New Zealanders what to eat, and we think we have done some good. But O0 there are still many who need to be convinced. So here we go again. Work these into the daily diet, and you'll j be better for it (provided you keep it up). MILK (IJ — 2 pirits) ; eggs, as you can get them (or, alternatively, dried peas, beans or ient''s 'n some form) ; meat, v/ith liver i and fish once a week if possible ; plenty j * of ve§etab,es; raw fruit; bread (half j ■j sbould be wholemeal) and cereals; and y°ur fu'l butter ration. And don't forget - \ Ii J to use iodised salt always. Cheese is good, t°°> if you can't take enough milk. When it comes to eating, this is worth noting. Have your meals at regular intervals ; eat them slovvly; and if you want to help your digestion, let things be quiet and' peaceful at mealtimes. Arguments can wait.
