There is no age at which you should stop being con­ cerned about good nutrition. People of all ages - from infants through the elderly - have specific nutritional needs, but these needs change from one age to another. An infant's nutritional needs, for example, are different from those of a teenager ; a teenager's needs are different from those of an elderly person. The nutritional needs of a teenage boy, incidentally, are not the same as the needs of a teenaged girl. The girls need to begin in­ creasing the iron in their diets at that age, while the boys, who generally are more active, need a higher intake of calories. As a person grows older, he or she usually becomes less active; so they need to cut back on calories. Poor nutrition is not more prevalent in some groups than in others.

( Malnourishment - not in the sense of being underfed, but in the sense of poor choice of food - is a problem that crosses social, economic, ethnic and age barriers. Too many people skip meals, eat "on the run," or eat too much food that is high in sugar or calories but low in nutritional value. The increasing popularity of fast-food establishments has contributed to a change in the eating habits of Americans. Not only are more and more people eating hurried meals in fast- food restaurants, but studies have shown that fast-food items, such as hamburgers and french fries, are being prepared more often in the family kitchen. The fast pace of modem living has made the daily sit- down, well-balanced family dinner the exception rather than the rule. In many homes meals are hurriedly prepared and eaten in front of the television set - or family members, who are not at home at meal time, "grab a snack" whqfi they do get home. All of these factors contribute to poor eating habits in all social and age groups. There are a number of changes that can be made to improve eating habits and still accommodate a hectic lifestyle. Consider the items often selected as snack food - - potato chips, candy, highly sweetened snack cakes "You could substitute fresh fruits, cheese, peanuts or other nuts, raisins, or raw vegetables which are just as tasty, just as trouble free, and much more nutritious. And, snacks or lunch-box items that contain peanut butter are good sources of protein. Another change you can make is to drink fruit juices or milk instead of soda or imitation fruit drinks that are high in sugar content. If you are the one who plans the family meals, be sure that, each day, family members eat foods from each of the four basic food groups -- 1) meat, poultry, fish, cheese, eggs, peas or beans; 2)fruits and vegetables; 3) dairy products; and 4) breads and cereals These kinds of changes in eating habits would not be especially difficult to make, but would result in better nutrition for you and your family.

Drug Addiction, Blindness Drug addicts can now add another hazard to their perilous habit -- the threat of blindness. So says Dr Morton F. Goldberg, Professor and Head, Department of Ophthalmology, University of Illinois, who has, in his words, "been struck by the number of tragic cases of drug addiction by in­ dividuals who self- administer drugs in­ travenously that have come to our attention." The problem, according to Dr. Goldberg, occurs because the drugs are mixed up in talcum powder, which is then filtered rather poorly through cigarette filters or cotton. These filtering procedures are very inef­ ficient. so that the individual eventially injects large amounts of talc into his own veins The talc is eventually carried by the bloodstream to the retina of the eye, where the talc particles lodge in very small blood vessels and block off the blood supply. Dr Goldberg reports that Professor l^ee Jampol of his department recently recreated this disease in experimental monkeys by repeatedly injecting talc in their veins.

Once the retinal tissue is killed off by the poor blood supply, there is no treat­ ment that can restore it to normal function." Another drug-related problem (alcohol) is also of growing concern to Dr. Goldberg and his staff. This particular problem is identified medially as Fetal Alcohol syndrome, a rather common set of congenital abnormalities caused by the ingestion of six (or more) alcoholic drinks per day by any pregnant woman. Ab­ normalities in 20 infants evaluated by Dr. Marilyn Miller of the University's D e p a r t m e n t o f Ophthalmology. ranged from droopy eyelids, crosseyes or walleyes, and amblyopia to mental retardation. "Fetal Alcohol syndrome is obviously a preventable form of congenital blindness as well as of mental retar­ dation," Dr. Goldberg says. "Pregnant women need to be warned of the danger to their unborn."
