Each patient will be told the
number of calories of food value
. that should be consumed daily.
The table given below will enable
patients to keep an accurate
check.
A method Of figuring calories
. Is to write down in one column
. at the end Of each day each
article of food eaten during the
day. Then take from the list Of
calorieS given below the value Of
each article Of food, adding the
total for the day. Do this three
or four days q week and average
the amount. This will give
fairly accurate idea Of the food
value intake per day. Where

are eaten, use the value Of a
similar type Of foodstuff.
