Zurich Citizens News, 1972-09-07, Page 9THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1972 ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS PAGE 9 ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS Golden Glimpses . . BLUE WATER REST HOME THE HUNGER SYNDROME When you say you're starving, famished, ravenous, liow do you really feel? Is there a gnawing, churning, rumbling sensation in your stomach or are you cued to hunger because the clock says noon and every- one is going out to lunch? What I am saying is that you may be eating too much—you may possibly be consuming food not because you're truly hungry but because of habit, because food smells good and you've just passed a pastry shoji and seen the specialty of the house, chocolate cake. According to your body you may be getting hunger pangs which are really muscle spasms caused by your stomach contracting on its own emptiness. Doctors have proven that obese and normal weight people are talking about two different experiences when they talk about "hunger". We all experience hunger pangs or signals, and we are all subject to the external signals, smell, taste and sight of food. But the obese person tends to receive different hunger signals than normal weight people. Overweight people will be unduly influenced by these signals, so much so that they tend to eat between meals as well as at regular meal times because they can't resist the.sensory signals as well as the hunger signals. If you know your weakness is chocolate donuts, you'd be Foolish to have them in the house, There are other less fattening goodies a weight watcher can eat. To be a successful dieter one must learn to exercise willpower and one must also be smart enough to avoid the external stimuli. Here are some of the ways to avoid the temptations brought on by the wrong signals. — Only eat when your stomach says its hungry. You'll have to listen to it closely. • — When you do listen to your body's signals, be able to read them correctly. It may not be saying its hungry but rather, it's tired, in need of fresh air. Sleep, don't eat. Take a walk instead of a cookie. — If you eat in a restaurant or luncheonette, don't sit near the pastry tray or where the pies are displayed on the counter. A dieter must be ruthless with himself. Remember boredom is the biggest cause of overweight. if your mind and body is signalling boredom, admit it and do something about it, except eat. Then when you have reached your goal weight, and find yourself buying a suit or dress two sizes smaller, "that" is the only kind of external stimulus a weight watcher should always acknowledge. Your questions are incited. Write Adelaide Daniels Says, Founder and Director of Weight Watchers of Ontario Limited, 491 Lawrence Avenue West, Toronto, Ontario.

I believe it would be safe to say that this is another Pamphlet on arthritis One of the most persistent myths about arthritis should be dispelled by a pamphlet, "The Truth About Diet and Arthritis, " available from Box 98, Toronto. "There is NO special diet for arthritis, " the pamphlet says bluntly. "No specific food has anything to do with causing the disease, and no specific diet will cure it." This information may come as a surprise to many people, the Society recognizes. Quacks, food fanatics, and many well- intentioned friends of arthritis sufferers have perpetuated myths about various "special foods with alleged curative powers. "Don't let them convince you, the pamphlet warns. "Food fanatics and peddlers of 'health and nature' foods and self-styled 'experts' who write books praising their 'miracle discoveries' about food and arthritis are more interested in their personal profit than they are in your health... "It is fantastically profitable for the sellers. For you, the arthritis patient, it leads to false hope and wasting of your money." The possibility that some dietary factor either causes or can help control arthritis has been thoroughly and scientific- ally investigated and disproved, the pamphlet states. However, the pamphlet ad- vises further, physicians do have medications and treatment procedures which can relieve pain and prevent disability in most patients. Prompt and prop- er treatment by a qualified physician is recommended for every arthritic. The proper diet for an arth- ritis patient, the leaflet states, is a normal, well-balanced, nourishing diet. "Good nutrition is essential for good health whether you have arthritis or not, " the pamphlet points out. "It is even more important that you eat well-rounded, adequate meals regularly when your body must resist and fight off the ravages of a disease like arthritis." Only one kind of arthritis -- gout --may require dietary restrictions in addition to medic- ation to control and prevent attacks. Special diets may also be prescribed by physicians for arthritics who have weight problems or other complicating conditions. Copies of the diet pamphlet and other informative public- ations about arthritis are avail- able without charge from Box 98, The Canadian Arthritis and Rheumatism Society, Tor- nto. indication that summer is al- most at an end. The residents here are now looking forward to their new bus to be delivered in the near future so that they will be able to take advantage of the beautiful autumn scenery. As was mentioned Iast week, some of our residents worked very hard to sell tickets on the nein bike which was raffled at the bean festival, proceeds of which is to go to the bus fund. Miss Lois Widrick who was placed here through the court- esy of the Department of Soc- ial and Family Services on their summer student program for eight weeks, has now returned to Waterloo University. I know the residents miss her help and company, and I wish to thank her for taking over the writing of this column while I was on vacation and keeping you inf- ormed of the activities here. While I was vacationing I visited a recently opened New Home. I was very interested in the building and its furnishings as well as its operation. While the building had some modern equipment which we do not have, I found that our pleasant surroundings and hominess were lacking. Since last Saturday evening was dull and dreary, films were shown, namely Jasper Holiday and Traveliving. Films will be shown from now on each week through the fall and winter months. Since Mr. Risi will be attending a convention most of next week, the films, Chuch- wagon and Red Balloon will be shown o n Sunday evening, at 7.30 p.m. You are invited to attend and enjoy the films as well as visit with your friends here, On Tuesday evening, bingo was enjoyed, followed by ref- reshments. We were pleased to have the young people of the Conserv- ative Mennonite Church visit the Home on Sunday afternoon and present several musical numbers. The sympathy of residents and staff is extended to the families of the late Mrs, Alice Sanders, formerly of Exeter, and Mrs. Edna May Corbett, of the Hensall area, who passed away during the week. Mr, Murdock Morrison was the guest minister in charge of the Sunday evening Chapel service. 'TURN 'EM ON" FOOD VALUES!
