Noted Nutritionist Gives
Common Sense Diet Rules
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York' (U.R) The com
placent smile that follows a few
weeks of successful dieting is
the downfall of many a would
be size 12.
We smile too soon, one au-i
thority said the other day. Then
we sit back and start eating
our regular food again and get
right back to our original shape.
"Treatment of overweight is
in a very unsatisfactory stage,"
Dr. Frederick J. Stare, chairman
of Harvard university's depart
ment of nutition, stated frankly
cn a. recent visit here to address
a medical meeting.
. Dr. Stare explained in an in
terview that the new theories
of weight losing are based on
realistic, common sense rules.
Keeping Weight Off
"The hardest part of dieting
is keeping the weight off once
you lose it," he continued. "So
for that reason the best diets are
those planned around foods peo
ple normally would eat. so they
will stick to the diets for .years."
The nutrition expert advocates
a family - awareness program
tnat -will make even children
conscious of sensible eating. He
says parents should set the ex
ample by the size of the'food por
tions on their .own plates.'
"Eat three .meals a day, hut
simply cut .down not. cut out,!,'
he said. . '

the person inclined to put on
weight even though Dr. Stare
emphasizes that once you be
come an easy weight gainer you
might just as well accept the
fact you always will be. ' ' - v
"There are exceptions, inhere
emotional problems' suddenly
cause people to put on ailotf-if
weight in a hurry,""- he ' said.
"Generally a person must learn
to live with a tendency to overweight."
The bright spot, however, is
in such added attractions to the
"common sense" approach as be-fore-meal
snacks. Dr. Stare ad
vocates them for many people
inclined to overeat.
A "Scientific" pibble
"There should be a 'sientific'
nibble taken from one half hour
to one hour before meals, as
distinguished from the 'com
mon nibble, he said.
A nutritionists idea of a
'scientific" nibble is something
you would have eaten at the ap
proaching meal : anyway and
not something extra.
"If you were going to have a
glass of milk at lunch anyway,
drink it a half, hour before
lunch," Dr Stare explained. "It
gives time for the blood sugar
to rise and reduces the appetite
by meal time."
In case there's anybody around
who is too thin, just reverse the
rule, the doctor advised. Don't
nibble before mealtime. Have
second -helpings instead.

The resin-finished .cloth
showed improved crease resis

handling and laundering.
The laundering caused a grad
ual loss of resin, ranging from
seven per cent in some fabrics
to 25 per cent in others.
