Your Home Are you cure that your family is getting a balanced diet? A well balanced diet is essential for good health. This is especially true if you are reducing or are still growing. The human body is a complicat ed machine that needs a wide va riety of raw materials to make it work efficiently. The only way you can gt this variety is by eat ing different foods. Vegetables and fruits are stress ed on any reducing diet because they givetyou many of the elements you need and are often fairly low in fat-making calories. They give you the all important bulk and at the same time valued vitamins. Vitamin B2 is found in vegeta bles such as spinach, peas und kale. Vitamin K is derived from green leafy vegetables such as spinach and tomatoes. Tomatoes are also a fine source of Vitamin C along with oranges, tangerines, lemons, grapefruit and strawber ries. Vitamin A is found in vegeta bles such as spinach, peas, carrots asparagus and sweet potatoes. Vi tamin's C and A are damaged by heat. For this reason it is a must to include in each day's diet some uncooked vegetable and fruit. Meat supplies the necessary pro tein to rebuild tissue and blood. Hi lk is often called the "perfect food" and should be a part of every person's diet ? young and old. Some sugar is important but most of us tend to over-eat in this department. Try to get your children to de velop a taste for all foods. In this way you can be sure that they will eat a variety of foods and thus get a balanced diet. If there Is some vegetable or meat that you do not eat ? keep thii knowledge from the children until after ;hey have been eating thii food :'or quite a while and you are sure they enjoy It. D.
