PERIL IN ALKALINE FOODS.

Only recently bottle fed babies received
8 mixture to which soda had been added.
b theory was that the curd formed
from cows milk was large and hard and
unlike the small, soft curd formed from
human milk. This was ascribed to. the
acidity of cows milk as contrasted with
the alkalinity of human milk.
At any rate, tie formulas used called
for a rather liberal use of soda or lime
| water or some other alkali. Doctors Hess
and Unger told the American Medical as
ISOLATION that the practice is a bad one.
Alkalies destroy some of the ~yita1nines
necessary for the welfare of the child.
Hess and Unger noted that a child fed
on malt soup was not thriving. They
put the child on milk and alkali and it
continued to go down. They changed to
milk without the alkali and Improvement
started at once and continued steadily.
They then began a series of experiments
with young animals and these experiments
confirmed the theory that the alkali was
the cause of trouble. In making malt
soup carbonate Of potash is used.
Alkaline malt soup extract is dissolved
in water and then mixed with wheat flour
and milk. The mixture is then boiled for
three minutes. Boiling is destructive to
vitamines. Boiling with alkali is more so.
In the discussion of this paper it was
shown that while many children are fed
on malt soup, few of them had scurvy.
Io eApidLidtiOI Ol THIS IdCC WAS ludI
most babies get some form of vegetable
or fruit juice early in life. 1t is the Gus
tom now to give orang juice or tomato
juice to babies only a few weeks old n
children much under a year are being fed
finely mashed green vegetables, stewed
apples and prunes.
The conclusion wal general that IL
babies were to be fed on prepared foods
they should have fruit juices, soups, and
finely mashed vegetables If they were to
escape trouble.
Doctors Hess and Unger suggested that
old fashioned cod liver oil was acid. The
modern preparations are alkaline. This
fact may account for some of the disap-
pointments in the use of the n~ewfangeled
cod liver oil preparations.
This Is a new agile to the literature deal
ing with the use of alkalies in foods. A
government expert a few years ago pro-
tested against the custom of putting soda
in cooking vegetables. It does improve the
color and soften the texture, but it les
sens the food values. 1t is especially de-
'tructfve to the vi,amines and it especial
Iy disturbs the mineral balance-and it is
Tor vitamines and mineral balance tina we
eat vegetables In the main.
1t has been proved that an over amount
OF soda in bread is harmful. Habitual
eating of bread yellow from soda has been
charged with causing pellaEra.
All these attacks all a1kalies in food
for babies and adults are bound to have
results. Ultimately the personN who take
soda for dyspepsia may see hN them a
warning. Some of those who put lime
water or soda in the baby's milk and who
cook vegetables and biscuits with soda
should take notice right now.
