November 0, 1975 Speaker cites overweight as major nutrition problem "Fifty to eighty per cent of Canadians are carrying around excess baggage." These were the figures given to close to 40 people who attended a Nutrition Seminar in the Wingham United Church on Monday by Ms. Mamie Davidson, consultant in nutrition with the Ministry of Health at Queen's Park. This week has been designated Nutrition Week in Huron County and Ms. Davidson expressed a hope that everyone would look more closely at their eating habits and try to improve them. She said that parents strongly in- fluence their children by the atti- tudes they have regarding food. "Children develop attitudes from our example," she said. • She asked the question, "What Does Food Mean to You?", say- ing that food is many different things to different people but to very few it is representative of nutritional value. In speaking of overweight, Ms. Davidson said that results of a Nutrition Canada survey indicate that 50to 80 per cent of Canadians over 40 years of age are over- : weight and cholesterol levels are high in this age group. Iron tends to be low in all age groups. Stating causes of overweight, she cited lack of physical exer- t cise, adding that many people _..watch television 30-40 hours per week. She also said that different periods in life contribute to over- - weight, i.e., stressful times, middle age, pregnancy, etc. After graduation from high school and without active participation in ° sports, is also a period in one's life when overweight can be a problem. Children of overweight parents *ave an 80 per cent chance of becoming overweight as the par ts' eating habits are passed to th - ► children. She also referred to ov .'ght problems in ex Antiokers.. whir •t nd to re- plababnetycpe-of'odd satisfaction with another. Ms., Davidson drew smiles from her audience as she re- ferred to diets as "the rhythmn method of girth control". She mentioned the fad diets that last an average of 90 days, off and on, and which tend to cut out one group of foods (e.g., bread, cereal) and tend to increase pro- tein with which goes an excess of fat. "We want an instant -off reducing plan," the speaker said. She said there are no magic diets but a diet must satisfy *nutritional needs.
