NEW ZEALAND — CHILDREN NUTRITION STANDARD GIVES CONCERN PARENTS BLAMED FOR POOR DIET F' An unsatisfactory standard of nutrilion among the children of New Zea- ' * ? lip ** land, which it is considered within the V - J I power of parents to improve, is re- \ corded in the annual report of the A , r< ♦ \ Director of School Hygiene (Dr. H. X ' $ Igs \ ~ \ B. Turbott). Reviewing the findings s/ of school medical officers Dr. Turbott V Gaffeplaces with parents much of the rc- M sponsibility for health deficiencies v Wi 1 among children. " . /.tAV - “School medical officers continue to **" s' y report dissatisfaction with the nutri- . VS? * tion of our children,” his report says. - - f ■** “It is not that there is much variation in the subnormal nutrition reported _ over the whole country, for this re- MBkW ww mains rather the perccntage and just below ■■■■£ average children persists as the bulk WW HI finding, while so few are graded » , the to kL Press, 31/7/41.) ■ IflP ♦ Average parents will always do what they believe best for children. In the Hfe-tinie of the present-day parent knowledge of food values has increased enormously. Vitamins have been discovered and nutritional knowledge proceeds apace. Unfortunately civilisation has robbed us of instinctive knowledge of what is best for us. Education and more education is necessary. VI-MAX has paid a valuable part in recent years in consistently giving wide publicity to the necessity for a health-promoting diet, an important part of which is supplied by VI-MAX. Incidentally, in one New Zealand school where tests were conducted over a period of years, with a special health diet which included VI-MAX, definite gains in health and resistance to illness and dental decay were established. VI-MAX is whole wheat carefully selected for flavour, with the normal proportion of wheat germ increased. The wheat germ is a vital part of the wheat berry and is rich»in Vitamins A, 81, 82, and E. VI-MAX is, therefore, an enjoyable vitalising cereal food with many uses. It makes a most delicious breakfast dish, and can - be used in practically every recipe using flour. yAt Aw There are two grades of Vland sold by al! grocers in 31b VI-MAX IS MADE BY THE MAKERS OF VI-BRAN AND VI-MEAL. cartons and 71b bags.
