The Fear of Fat.
HNolN~

No doubt 1t is unpleasant to be excessively
OBESE; but the morbid dread OF fat which has In
recent years become fashionable has no founda-
ton In physiological fact Fat answers two
purpoSes-lt acts as non-conducting envelope
Tor the body and protects 1t from too rapid loss
OF heat, and II serves as store OF fuel In the
course OF exhausting diseases it not unfre-
quently happens that the life Of a patient may
be prolonged until the reserve of fat is exhaust
ed, and then he dies OF hamilton. Fats supply
the material OF the heating process on which
vitality mainly depends. In great excess it is
1neonvenient; but the external layings on OF
fat Is no certain measure Of the Internal devel-
opment OF adipose tissue; much less does ten
dency to grow fat imply, or even suggest, ten
dency TO what Is known as ''fatty degenera-
ton" II Is time to speak out on this point, as
the most absurd notions seem to prevail Again,
II Is not true that special forms OF food determ-
Inc lat. That is an old and exploded notion.
some organisms will make fat, let them be fed
on the leanest and scantteSt and least saccha-
Tine descriptions Of food, while others viii not
be ''fattened" let them feed on the most s.fat-
ten1bg" OF diets The matter Is one in regard to
which 1t Is supremely desirable and polite TO
be natural, adapting the food taken to the re-
quirementS OF health rather than substance
Simple food, sufficient exercise, and regular
habits, with moderation In the use OF stimu-
lants, compose the maxim of safe and healthy
way OF life.
