Within the last twenty years there
has sprung into existence theories by
the score relative to the kinds OF food
that human beings should eat, and
should avoid. With the tremendous in
crease In nervous and stomach dis
eases which are caused by the strenu-
GUS life Of this neurotic, neurasthenic
age in which we live, we are con-
stantly having our attention called to
some food faddist's new idea" on the
subject OF alimentation.
Most prominent among these theo-
rists Is the vegetarian nho insists that
meat was never intended for the hu-
man stomach, despite the fact that his
ancestors for 5000 years or more
used II as their principal article of
diet; and old patriarchs of biblical
history who lived to prodigious old
ages, were meat eaters. All of the
great nations of history have been
users of meat, and all Of the most
powerful and advanced countries of
today employ IL extensively In their
dietaries, and their superior develop
ment and high degree of civilization
and In strong and striking contrast to
the decadent and degenerate nations
OF Asia and the tropic whose inhabi-
tants are vegetarians.
Another fallacy which has lately he |
come fad, is the so-called "low-pro- !
fteid" diet. Now, the foods which are
rich in proteids are the ones which |
build up nerve, brain muscle arr. blood, /
so tLat any great reduction in the
% al D xFEtt4 rvn Npv- 4,
centers of the systematic ones on
which we depend the most tn enable us
to successfully fight the battles of life
Those nations whose people use foods
containing but little proteid are never
of large frame or we'll built The lana
nese, who have always been small of
stature, have since adopting :. more
liberal proteid diet shown a. remark
able increase in size, vigor and gem
eral development; and 1t is only since
Japan became a intoxicating nation
that 1t has developed into a world
power.
Still another theory lately advanced
is that sugar pepper and salt are gas
trio irritants and irritate the mucous
membrane Of the stomach although
IT is known that sugar possesses a
high caloric value, while pepper and
salt assist digestion rather than inter
fere with it, it is claimed.
The no-breakfast plan, the two-m ,
per day, and even the one meal daily
has been advocated, while some advise
a two or three weeks fast, during
which all food is withheld from the
ito give it a rest" completely
ignoring the fact that the systems it's '
sues are being constantly torn down S
and cast off, and new material to re- {
build them must be supplied from the
food
1t is utter nonsense to concern ones g
self about all these absurd and illogi- +
cal theories, as life is entirely foo
short, and there are other things re-
1uiring our attention. Eat what Won .,
want when you want x and as much 9,
as tho system needs to replenish it's =
waste, and then take one or two of :,
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets and forget
all about food fads and stomach trou-
oles. They digest all kinds of food SO '
thoroughly you won't know YOU have
4 stomach. They are powerful diges-
tors OF every kind of food though d
harmless to the 81 stem, and NAV be n
AIKEN at any time and IL. any quantity II
