PITTSBURGH up - The

"The 20f2O standard Of vision is
a fallacy which should be explod-
ed" says DR.. J. Otis White, asso-

mean normal vision nor does it
mean average vision. It is just an
arbitrary standard set before we
knew any better"
Among requirements for ade-
quate vision listed by DR.. White
were ability to see clearly at about
Is inches, ability to make the two
eyes work together, ability to
judge distance and the ability to
see over a large area while focus
ing on point straight ahead.

good chance you may not be as
allergic as you think. Physicians
have discovered that many people
who fear they have food allergies
don't actually have them. When
800 people who thought they
had food allergies were tested
at a Midwestern medical lab
Oratory, nearly 20 per cent
were told their allergies were
entirely imaginary.
According to directors of the
allergy clinic at Roosevelt Hos
pital in New York City, true food
allergy probably exists in no more
than one person in $50.
Your Mental Attitude
/ HERE are countless normal peo-
pie who are convinced they have
a food allergy because at one time
or another they ate some food and
reacted unfavorably to it. Doctors
explain that they reacted 50 be-
cause they ate the food when tired
or emotionally upset - or because
they ate too much of it too quickly.
The next time they tried to eat
the same food they were so afraid
it would harm them that they had
the bad reaction all over again.
As DR.. L. Jean Bogert says:
Millions of people suffer from the
inhibition of being unable to eat
certain foods who could undoubt-
edly eat those foods -. if they
only thought they could"
Most nutritional authorities are
convinced that their most signifi-
cant finding in recent years is
that eaters who are overconcerned
about eating can spoil their appe-
tites, spoil their digestions and
stop themselves from getting many
of the benefits good food could
give them.
The best advice modern food
science has to offer you is this: the
less you worry about what you
should or shouldn't eat, the more
you'll get out of eating. The End

swallowed in chunks would cut
into the stomach lining and cause
the illness called gastritis. But DR..
H. L. Bockus, veteran professor of
gastroenterology at the University
of Pennsylvania, says, Il am not
aware of any proof that repeated
swallowing of Improperly masti-
Gated food is a cause of gastritis. "
Rich Feeds Are Safe
It's high time, doctors say,
to explode another popular fear
about digestion: that the easiest
way to upset it is to eat fat-rich
or fried foods. According to the
journal of the American Medical
Association, it's not only safe but
necessary for you to eat fatty
foods regularly. The journal"
says: Ample provision is made
for the assimilation of considerable
amounts of fat" And it adds that
fat-rich foods are less likely to
cause digestive distress than
carbohydrates or starches.
If you've SHE'D away from fatty
foods because you're on a diet,
here's more cheering news. While
you have been swallowing your
black coffee and BUTTERFLIES toast,
nuuitionists at Cornell and other
universities have discovered you
might lose weight faster if you
added limited amounts of cream
and butter to your diet. Fat-rich
foods don't leave your stomach for
several hours after you eat them,
50 they curb your appetite and
keep you from eating too much.
All the newest studies on diets
and dieting show that if you want
to whittle your waistline you don't
have to starve yourself to do it. A
typicalreducing dietrecommended
by the American Dietetic Associa-
ton includes daily portions of
meat (or fish,, eggs, cereal, milk,
vegetables, fruit plus two slices
of bread and butter.
Dietitians now also give dieters

the go-ahead on minimum quan-
titles of potatoes and sugar. Most
overplump people think they have
to pass them up because they con-
tain too many calories for a reduc-
ing diet. The experts finding is
that potatoes and sugar have
fewer calories than most people
think. If you take a potato with
your dinner, you get the same
number of calories (1OO) as from
an orange, an apple or a portion of
green peas. Of course if the potato
eliminates the orange you lose
Vitamin G from your meal. A
teaspoon of sugar in your coffee
adds less than 20 calories to your
dinner and has the additional ad-
vantage of making the meal seem
more filling.
Chances are you've been going
out of your way to avoid other
foods you could be eating and
enjoying. One of the most wide
spread dietary myths, dietitians
inform me, is that ''acid" foods are
harmful and should be eaten spar
ingly. If you eat them freely, this
theory says, excess acid will accu-
mulate in your blood and stomach
and may undermine your health.
Foods most dangerous in this
regard are said to be lemons,
oranges, grapefruits, tomatoes,
radishes and apples.
T. It an Aue10y?
RECENT research has punched big
holes in this theory. Even if your
diet is loaded with acid foods your
blood can't become overacid. Ex-
perimenters have swallowed huge
doses of acid foods and found no
change in their blood. An acid diet
can't very well affect your stomach
either since its digestive juice is
normally acid and remains so no
matter what you eat.
How many foods have you writ
ten off your diet because you think
you're allergic to them? There's
