Nuts Useful in Diabetes

A LARGE variety oGnuts and nut prepsr-
4 i ations is another source OF protelns and
fat These foods are Of inestmable value
in the treatment of diabetes, and are
most satisfactory substitutes for flesh foods
of various sorts.
1t has been well known for half CEN
tury or more that nuts. properly prepared,
constitute a valuable diet in diabetes DIR.
Austin Flint of New York, more than a
third of a century ago recommended flour
made from blanched almonds as a diabetic
food. There are other nuts which may be
prepared more conveniently and at less ex-
pense than almonds, although the latter are
very wholesome. Nuts have an advantage
over all other natural food substances for
diabetes in the following particulars:
1. They contain no starch, or at least
only an Insignificant amount (the chief ex-
ceptions are the chestnut. which contains
so per cent Of starch, and hence cannot
be recommended in this disease the walnut
and tho peanut.
2. Nuts contain a large amount OF easily
digestlble fat which diabetes need to re-
place the starch and sugar which they
must avoid.
3. Nuts are rich in blood and tissue
building elements, being, in fact, the most
highly concentrated natural food substance
known.
The absence of starch and the large pro-
portion Of albuminous elements combined
with fats presented by this class OF food
substances give them properties virtually
identical with those of flesh foods, with the
exception Of the entire absence or urls
acid and other poisonous substances which
abound in the tissues of animals.
4. The great difficulty in the use Of nuts
Is their indigestibility who.i taken in the
ordinary dry state. BY very thorough mas
tication raw nuts may be safely eaten, but
unfortunately very few people have the
patience to use their teeth with sufficient
thoroughness. Very long and patient chew
ing is required TO prevent the entrance Of
hard, indgestible and irritating particles
into the stomach. They should be chewed
until they are like cream before swallow
ing
