Classified Ads Bring Results NO ONE "CURE-AUT FOOD, SAYS EXPERT ON GOOD NUTRITION There is no one "cure-all" food, says a University of', Illinois health education specialist. Miss Pauline Brimball says today's homemaker is food conscious. she kfiows better than to fall for the fancy names food quacks give to what they call "cure-all" diets. But sometimes it takes sound judgment to "discover quacks, who twist scientific findings in the field of nutrition and dietetics to their own" advantage. •Reducing diets are one food fad you can always find in some form or other. Slender figures are fashionable, and life insurance figures show that overweight people tend to die younger than those of normal weight. But most quick reducing diets are likely to starve the body because they supply only a small part of the needed calories, ,'Xnlh-. erals and vitamins. Fads and notions which claim that you, can reduce without carefully considering what you eat, which o^im rapid loss of weight or which promise everlasting youth, beauty or health are not new. They will come up time and again because people will always try to find an easier way to take off weight. Miss Brimhall says knowing moi e about foods and your body will make it easier for you to decide between science and quackery, if you want to reduce, do it under a doctor's care because many reducing fads have wrecked health far more than being overweight.
