Nutrition Canada Survey results indicate that we aren't as well nourished as we ought to be, and should make a greater effort to select food with a better percentage of nutrients per calorie. Using a food guide to plan meals is probably the easiest way of ensuring that the foods we eat meet our nutrient requirements. Free copies of the official "Canada Food Guide" are available from local health departments and health units in Ontario. "Guide to Good Eating," recen- tly developed by the Depart- ment of Nutrition at' the University of Toronto's School of Hygiene, is being used ex- perimentally by some nutrition educators, particularly Ontario 9, informing that the speak-off for the Youth Pilgrimage will be held February 27'.

This guide classifies food into four basic groups; milk and milk products; fruit and vegetables; meat and alter- nates; cereals, breads and pastas. Serving sizes for each group are given. In nutrition education programs in many elementary schools, students are being en- couraged to select balanced meals containing at least one food from each of the guide's four food groups. Results of a recent survey indicate the suc- cess of this new method. The balanced-meal concept is simple and could be used by everyone in the family. Check with your children or local teachers for additional infor- mation. After' you have selected the food gdide you feel most com- fortable with, use it daily in the interest of better nutrition. With your food guide in mind while shopping, you can economize by avoiding foods high in calories which have lit- tle or no' nutritive value, and focus on buying only the essen- tials. 27, 1974 at South Huron Hospital in Exeter.
