Bible Gave Right Diet
For Bearing Children
Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Association
and Of HyEeia. the Health Magazine

and Of HyEeiaA the Health Magazine
With all the research and experimentation that has
been going on In this modern age. science stu has to
admit that our ancestors were not very far from wrong
in many ideas concerning their health.
For instance. we know now that vitamins A. ID and
Z are essential to successful childbirth. Well. an Eng
lish medical authority calls attention TO a diet recon-
mended In the Old Testament to prevent sterility, OF
failure to have children, and the foods suggested form
an excellent regimen In themselves.
The diet which this physician has found I'm the
Bible includes wheat, barley and meal. parched corn,
beans. lentils. oils, butter, honey. sheep, cheese. fatted
chicken and fatted oxen. and in fact all the fruits
OF the field.
The same doctor points out that many cases Of
failure to have children. which he has seen I'm his
practice. have been corrected by a suitable improve
ment Of the diet and prescription OF g~landuIar ma
terials necessary to speed up the chemical changes
going on In the body.
1t Is also important that the expectant mother get
a sufficient amount OF calcium and phosphorus. 20
that the baby may have sound bones and teeth. Ma
ture prepares for the child's adequate use Of this cal
cium and phosphorus. through providing the child
before birth. during the twelfth week, with its thyroid
and parathyroid glands.
The vitau1ins are important In affecting suitable

glands Of internal secretion are the motor OF the hui
man organism. BY correct diet, sunshine and exer-
else. disaster during childbirth may be avoided In
many cases.
"A deficiency OF vitamin g and u In the diet. and
a subsequent deficiency OF calcium and phosphorus
preceding childbirth are reflected In disturbances OF
the gums. decay OF the teeth. muscular weakness.
s~pasmodic cramps in the legs and arms and even mild
commissions.
The substances in the diet which are Of greatest i'm
portance in the period preceding childbirth are those
which provide iron. copper, calcium and phosphorus
together with the vitamins. Those particularly con-
cerned are asparagus, almonds. lean beef. beans. bar
ley. carrots. cheese. the yoks Of eggs, green vege-
tables slch as lettuce and spinach, liver. oatmeal.
oysters. peas. potatoes. prunes. rsisins. walnuts and
wheat.
Milk Is especially important In providing calcium and
suitable proteins and fats.
II has been said that the average mother need not
eat for two. but, SO far as calcium Is concerned. she
requires much more than the average mother Is likely
to include In her diet.
