Doctor
Talk
By Rembert Benjamin, M. D.
Since biblical times we have
been warned about the adverse
effects of ~ov>r - Indulgence.
Today, more than ever, we
are able to realize the extent
of the damage that can be?done
by several forms of over
indulgence.
Over-indulgence of alcoholic
beverages presents a very
serious problem in business
and in domestic relationships
In every strata of society.
Many people competing in a
fast pace of life may consume
more alcohol than they realize
or may become habituated with
Its use by consistent ex
posure. This commonly leads
to a gradual increased con
sumption resulting in a defi
nite pathological condition
throughout the organ systems
of the body.
Another very common form
of over-indulgence involves
our eating habits. Unfortu
nately, many of us fall to exer
cise the proper rest/siint or
selectivity in our dietary habits.
Carbohydrates and fats are con
sumed in excessive quantity,
and entirely out of "proportion
to a proper and normal bal
ance.
We should become acquainted
with a proper relationship which
exists with proteins, fats and
carbohydrate^ and particularly
with their" calorie potential.
Calories represent a way of
rpeasuring the degree of food
intake. For any given person
there is an ideal or physiologi
cal calorie-per-day level which
allows correct utilization oS all
the food cortsumed for that day.
When a person exceeds this
level there Is a superfluous
accumulation, and obesity en
sues.
A good, sensible approach
to healthy living Is moderation
In all our habits.
