ISSUED BY'THE DEPT.’OF HEALTH Ji I / V’TW «WHAT’S ALL THIS FUSS • ABOUT VITAMINS! Why shouid I bother with vitamins and minerals and things —I want a square meal” There’s no need to ‘bother’ with the essential food elements. Eat a diet as balanced as you can get and the vitamins and minerals and aii the rest will be there. A square meal is not one that gives you that ‘full’ feeling, but one that gives your body what it needs for full health. Here’s your idea! food programme: MILK: Two glasses daily for each adult; 3-4 for each child. Take simply as milk, or in the form of hot drinks, soups, puddings and sauces. Dried Skim Milk may be used for cooking purposes and to reduce expense. EGGS: Three or four a week—one a day, if possible, for the child* ren. When not available use more dried peas, beans and lentils. MEATS: Rationed or unrationed, or FISH OR CHEESE DISHES—one helping at least each day. POTATO: One or more helpings every day, with TWO OTHER VEGETABLES, one of which should be green or yellow. FRUITS: Two fruits, one of which should be a citrus fruit or a tomato, or black currants or gooseberries (raw or bottled). The other fruit may be raw or cooked, fresh or dried. FATS: The butter ration is sufficient, together with meat fat and the fat used in cooking. BREADS, CEREALS, FLOURS: At least half should be wholegrain. Eat anything else you like but plan your diet on the above basis. And don’t forget to use lODISED SALT. And remember the daily dose of COD LIVER OIL in winter. The nearer you get to this programme, the better will be your health. . ISx C> FOR A HEALTHIER NATION
