Kagan, won first place in the oratorical contest WARN PUBLIC TO BEWARE Of "HEALTH FOODS" Beware of the person who tries to sell you "better health" in the form of pills, powders, capsules or "special foods." University of Illinois nutritionist Harriet Barto says that food fadists persuade or frighten the public into following food fads ahd buying products that are, at best, of questionable nutritive value. Thus they're a waste of money. She also said that these products can be dangerous if people buy them as cure-alls to diseases that should be diagnosed and treated by a physician. Miss Barto stressed that there are no shortcuts to health. An adequate daily diet is the soundest advice; This should include milk and dairy products; vegetables and fruits; meat, fowl, fish or eggs; and bread and cereals. Miss Barto cautioned against "health food lectures" and door-to-door selling of food supplements. Both kinds of sales agents use a scare technique in selling their vitamin, mineral and herbal concoctions. Generally they cling to four food "myths." One such myth claims that all diseases are due to faulty died. This means it's almost impossible to eat a completely adequate diet. Unless, of course, the food supplement is taken. Another states that soil depletion causes malnutrition. These food fadists push the theory that repeated cropping has so impoverished the soil that foods grown on it are nutritionally inferior. They also attack the use of chemical fertilizers, claiming these "poison" the land and the crops grown on it. - There's no scientific basis for either theory. A third myth is that of overprocessing. In stressing this point, the food supplement promoters conveniently overlook the fact that modern foods processing methods preserve nutritional values or restore them to foods. An example is canning or freezing fruits and vegetables at the peak of nutritional perfection, or adding vitamins and minerals to flour, bread, milk and margarine. According to the subclinical deficiency myth, anyone who has "that tired feeling" or an ache or pain in almost any part of the body has a "subclinical deficiency" and needs to supplement his diet with some health food. . Of course, practically everyone has these symptoms at one time or another. They may be caused by many other conditions than vitamin or mineral deficiencies.
