The importance of proper nutrition

By PATRICIA M. RATHBUN Extension Agent, Home Ec Diet and nutrition are becoming more important as science continues to look for relationships between specific nutrients and chronic conditions. Os the 10 leading causes of death in the United States, six have been shown to be partially related to diet: heart disease, some types of cancer, stroke and hypertension, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, and cirrohsis of the liver. Malnutrition plays a part in many health problems. At least one-third of all Americans are overweight to the extent that life expectancy is shortened. Overweight can also aggravate conditions such as arthritis and diabetes. More persons suffer from iron-deficiency anemia than any other nutrition deficiency. Too .many calories, too much fat,.or the kind of fat eaten may affect or promote disease. Overweight, fat and cholesterol are known to play a role in heart disease. What kind of role is still unclear. Persons consuming a high-fat diet, too many or too few vitamins and minerals, not enough fiber, and so on, have been shown to have an increased risk of certain types of cancer. Too much salt (sodium chloride) or other sodium compounds appear to be related to hypertension or high blood pressure. In the US, approximately 17 per cent of adults have high blood pressure. Sodium is present in many beverages and foods that we eat, especially in certain processed foods, salty snacks and sandwich meats. Baking soda, baking powder, MSG, soft drinks and even medications contain sodium. These chronic diseases are responsible for much of the huge increass in the nation’s health care costs. It appears that if means, including proper diet, can be found to prevent many of the debilitating diseases, great personal and economic benefits could be realized. However, the science of nutrition has not advanced to the point where we can

Two from Syracuse speak to Kiwanians

Steve Snyder, attorney, who’s offices are located in the Pickwick Building, Syracuse, and Joe Dock, superintendent of the Syracuse Water and Sewer Department, spoke at the March 5 meeting of Wawasee Kiwanis. They were introduced by Don Denny, vice-president and program chairman. Dock talked about the history of the water at Syracuse. He said there are 25 miles in the Syracuse distribution system, consisting of three types of conveyors. The types of pipe used in the system are galvanized, lead and plastic. There is a large holding tank in the ground and three well pumps used to pump the water to the tank, which has an elevation of 102 feet. Two of the pumps are of diesel power. They are used in case of electrical power shortage. For seepage of any waste material the water fields are protected by a charcoal filter system and a pressurized sand filter. Water pressure control is provided by the water tank’s 102foot elevation. For those residing close to the tank pressure is lower than for those residing further away, as water gains pressure as it flows through the system. Main tap to residence or business is through water meters. Main breaks in lines are usually caused by vibration in the earth, generally caused by storms. To repair a main line, under pressure, stainless steel repair clamps are used to hold back pressure. The most prominent problems are the accumulation of iron, maganese and calcium in the piping, reducing flow. To combat the problem hydrants are flushed months. Flushing the hydrants produces the reddish water residents receive through their pipes at the time of flushing. Residents are notified in the paper when flushing will occur and should plan not to wash

clothes at that time. A family of four uses, on the average, 115,000 gallons of water per year. The greatest use of water is from the flushing of stools. A dishwasher is the cause of the second largest water usage. To detect a leak in a stool, coloring is put in tank water and if that color shows up in the bowl there is a leak. Should there be a cross connection, caution should be used so as not to have pollution sucked back into the system. The Legionnaires disease in Philadelphia, which caused many deaths, was attributed to this. Wills Steve Snyder discussed why everyone should have a will. Generally, one assumes that if one spouse dies the surviving spouse will inherit the entire estate. Snyder explained descent and distribution under the laws of the State of Indiana, when a person dies without a will, affecting the inheritance to a spouse. Children under 18 years of age inheriting property from an estate must have a trustee or guardian to account for the estate. Children over 18 years of age can assume ownership. A trustee must provide for the needs of a child, or children, and must administer funds according to the trust, which should be set up in the will. Trustees can also sell assets, appoint a guardian, if a will does not designate one. An executor of a will must be 21 years of age and a resident of the state where the will is executed. Duties of an executor are to find and list all assets of the estate, including cash, bank accounts and property of the deceased. Attorney’s fees are generally two to five per cent of the estate’s value. This fee is governed by state statute and the size of the estate.

Following the ceremony a luncheon was enjoyed at the Turtle Restaurant in Sedona. The couple graduated form Pierceton High School in the class of 1929, and had not seen each other for 53 years, until meeting at a class reunion in June 1982. Mrs. McDonald is the mother of Jerry Lowe of Syracuse. The couple will reside in Indiana and Arizona.
