To Watch Your Weight, Count Calories
By SARAH G. WRIGHT
Director of Health Services
Those of us who like to know how many calories we are
consuming need a handy chart. The following has been
prepared so you might post it in your room.
Hease pay attention to the caloric content of the foods
usally us^ as extra snacks, especially at night. Some of
these can add up to 500 extra calories. Many of these snack
foods are so low in nutrients that they are known as empty
calory foods.
For the sake of good health it would be advisable to try
fresh fruit instead of those empty calories.

Help Yourself
ToGoodHealth
A guide to preventive health maintenance, “Help
Yourself” is the latest in the series of health education
booklets published by the national Blue Cross and Blue
Shield Associations.
The 94-page booklet stresses preventive medicine as one
way to overcome the high cost of medical and hospital care.
Topics discussed in the booklet include diet, exercise,
stress, self- treatment and precautions against cancer, and
other factors determining today’s lifestyles.
“We have come to expect too much of our healers and too
little of ourselves,” writes Walter J. McNerney, president
of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, in the in
troductory article.
McNerney writes that “the foremost killers and disablers
of modern man— including heart disease, cancer, stroke
and accidents—are the ‘Ufestyle diseases’ that result from
the abuse and neglect of our bodies.”
Single copies of “Help Yourself”, are available free of
charge by writing to the Public Relations Division, Blue
Cross and Blue Shield of N.C., P.O. Box 2291, Durham, N.
C., 27707.
