Fish FOOD NOT THE BEST.
Many FaIlacies Regarding a Diet on
Sea Products Are Extaut.

a
Sea Products Are Extant.
1t is doubtful whether any given
food In common use contains constitu-
ents which have a seiective action, so
to speak, on the property of minister
ing to one part OF the body more than
another. AS a rule, when a food is
assumed to have specific reparative
properties-as, for example, a so-called
brain or nerve food-the fact really is
that such food is easily and quickly
assimilated to the body's general ad-
vantage; in q word, in such a case re-
pair quickly overtakes waste and
real purposeful nutrition and restora-
ton are accomplished The admins.
tration Of such elements as phosphorus
or iron in medicine, is, OF course, a
different matter, but these elements
are evenly distributed In the materials
OF daily diet.
1t is often stated that fish is a food
which ministers particularly to the
needs OF the brain because 1t contains
phosphorus. As a matter of fact, fish
does not contain more phosphorus than
do the ordinary meat foods, and 1t
certainly does not contain 1t in a free
state. The notion that fish contains
phosphorus had no doubt it's origin in
the glowing phosphorescence OF fish in
the dark. This phosphorescence is due
not to phosphorus at all, but to micro
organisms. The belief. therefore, that
1sh is brain food Is just about as rea-
sonable as the idea that because a
soup is thick and gelatinous ut will
stick to the ribs" or as sensible as the
celebrated advice to Yerdsnt Green to
lay in stock Of Reading biscuits to
assist his reading.
Fish, Of course. is excellent food
partly because OF the nourishing ma
ture OF its constituents and partly be-
cause OF its digeshbility. But ii is in
no sense a specific for brain or nerve.
