SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. C. A. L. Reed

VoU are advised by Mr.. Sibley
Il that the vegetarian" boys
held their own in football, cricket,
running and swimming contests,
and averaged more than their pro-
portionate number of places in the
school elovens. In the summer Of
1924 they took four out of the
first ten places in the 220 yards
swimming championships and two
of them won, respectively, the
challenge cups for Scouts over and
under Is for all the southwest of
England.
A vegetarian life, though It does
not protect a boy from infectious
diseases, Lessons the chance of
complications and makes recovery
quicker, in Mr.. Sibleys experience.
Nevertheless, in the big influenza
epidemic oe 1918 an Unexpectedly
big proportion were immune, and
in a smaller epidemic this year the
number Of victims was only % per
cent OF the vegetarians as against
so per cent and SIS per cent in the
other houses. BoiIs and constipa-
tion are comparatively rare among
vegetarians.
Mr.. Sibley concludes from what
have told you that a 'tvegeta-
rian" diet, scientifically pursued,
not only gives equally good health,
but promises greater freedom
from common ills, and allows the
brain to function more freely and
effectively.
The point about MIR. SibIey's
Vegetarian" diet Is that 1t Is far
from being an exclusively vege-
tartan regimen. His eggs. cheese,
milk and butter, are frankly Of
animal origin. He does not say
whether his soups contain meat
stocks. If not they are rather
poor excuses for soups. OF course,
by virtue Of the protein contained
in its animal elements as given,
the diet is fairly well balanced. It.
makes but little difference whether
you get your protein from meat
op other animal products, just so
you get it.
Meat is only a convenient way
Of taking protein-the energy pro-
ducing element of your diet-and
it makes no difference whether
you get it by eating an egg or
the hen that laid the egg. But
when you take it through animal
products you are not taking it
through vegetables. There are
vegetables. notably maize and
1entils, that carry A. high pro-
tein content and that help 10
maintain somewhat Of balance
in diet IL they are given due
representation on the bill of fare.
But the experiments of Mr.. Sib
ley are extremely interesting as
showing how. by using the ami
NAL products he enumerates, an
attractive and fairly balanced
diet may be worked out with a
preponderance Of vegetables.
