Importance Of
Milk in Diet
Stressed

With nutrition one of the most
important factors in maintaining
adequate health, Dr. Miriam Hub
bell, county health officer, has
called attention to one of the most
important &c foods, Tx.
Accorc - recert bulletin
published by the Kern County de-
par'ment of public health, if one
could have but three foods, the
best choice would be milk. whole
wheat, and oranges as this COM
bination would sustain life and
health longer than any other three
specific forms.
Milk, the bulletin, states, aside
from its tissue building ability in
the form of its pro ems, has PIE
cious calcium and phospho us
which is not made up in other
foods. In order to obtain the
amount of calcium present in a
quart of milk enc would have to
eat 39 eggs, 7 carrots and similar
impossible quaint les of other such
fools.
The council on foods has set the
amount of milk needed daily as one
quart for growing children and ex-
pectant mothers, and one pint for
adult men and women.
