O knihe

Excerpt from Food and Life: Common-Sense Diet for the Fat and the Lean, the Sick and the Well, the Old and the Young

Icht dieting does not mean starvation or even discomfort. One definition of to diet, it is true, is to eat sparingly, and in the minds Of most people diet conveys the idea Of more or less self denial. Modern dietitians have, however, restored to the word its original and primary meaning, which is to feed.

The best medical authorities now agree that both those who are too fat and those who are too lean eat too little - that is, too little Of what is good for them. Overweight is not necessarily caused by overfeed ing, nor underweight by underfeeding. In both conditions the cause is most Of ten found in not eat ing enough of the proper food for individual condi tions. Right selection Of foods rather than quantity determines the restoration Of persons overweight or underweight to their proper proportions and symmetry.
