THE ADULT AND PHYSICAL
EXAMINATIONS
Emily Bennett, Red Cross
Nutritionist

Many people go through their en-
tire life on a low nutritional plane.
They are not sick, but they never
feel that joy of living, that positive
health, as some call it. Most of us
take the line of least resistance and
settle back to satisfaction if we are
out of bed and free from actual pain
and discomfort. We have not en-
joyed the feeling of positive health,
so do not miss it. We go compla-
Gently along, living below par, until
finally we are so far gone that it is
hard on us and the doctor. We sud-
denly realize something is wrong;
we have allowed ourselves to become
almost a human wreck.
Then we act. High blood pres
sure" says the doctor, or some
other abnormal condition that strikes
terror to our souls.
The physical examination, made
regularly, is great check-up on our
feelings. We should make our birth
day a real day of being born anew,
mentally, by having complete phys
ical examination to satisfy ourselves
that we are all right. This followed
with correction of physical defects
which may be found, suitable
amounts of rest and recreation, and
a diet that is actually known to fur
nish the things that really contribute
to health, is very apt to create such
a feeling that we will unquestionably
say positive health.
A diet poor in minerals, day after
day, year after year, finally makes
the entire body function below par.
It has been proven over and over
again that diet for long deficient
in vitamins, and especially the one
called ''Vitamin A." makes us sus-
ceptible to infection and causes a
general weakening of our body.
Our appetite, air passages, lungs,
bladder, skin, frontal sinus and ears
are liable. to suffer when our food is
poor in respect to this vitamin A.
1t is found, by the way, in milk and
milk products, especially butter; in
egg yolk and green leafy vegetables.
This may all seem 'the bunk" as
the small boy would say, but there is
evidence that it is all true. Expert
ments have proven it over and over.
And insurance companies have fig
ures showing that education in
health andt he regular aking of phys
ical examinations have, during the
past decade, increased the actual
working span of human life.
AS has been said so often, the
physical condition of the adult is, to a
large extent, result of the living as
a child. Physical fitness and sound
nutrition begin well before birth.
The diet of mother to be, helps to
determine the well-being of her I'M
born child. The small child's diet
helps to determine what is accom-
plished by that child in school. The
school child's diet helps to deter
mine the adults physical condition,
and the adult in turn has its influnce
on old age, whether it be hale and
hearty, or feeble and broken. Con-
slider the future, consider the phys
ical examination, so you may change
the future.
