ADELAIDE DANIELS The Student Shape-up Many overweight students tend to rationalize that "brain work re- quires extra calories". Actually, the student's appetite is more likely the problem, increased by boredom and by the easy availability of snacks. Studying and snacking through the night, living on a shoe-string, coping with starchy institutional food, pressure to overeat on vaca- tions at home, compulsive eating out of boredom, escapism and emotional conflict, and ill-informed attempts at crash or fad diets, are all conducive to poor nutrition. ; Is there really a way to shape up? Of course, and it's as easy as you want to make it. Where does one begin? Arrange a visit to the school doctor or nutritionist. Listen carefully to what you're told, ask questions, and make up your mind you're going to follow instructions. Then do it! Perhaps to be a better student academically, being a student of nutrition is a first step. We're at our best when each of the trillions of cells in our bodies are provided with every known food require- ment. To neglect any one of them means you have shortchanged your own health. And your health is largely a result of your daily habits of living. And, your daily habits of living determine your success as a student (and later in life, your success in whatever you choose to do). What special steps can you take? Try studying at the library where there's no refrigerator. If you're out with the gang for a snack, stay on your recommended diet by practicing will-power. Make it a- challenge. Take advantage of every opportunity to get fresh air and exercise. Perhaps you can even enroll in an exercise class. After you've started your shape-up program, don't expect results overnight. It will take time and patience, just as anything worth- while does. But you're on your way to a fresh, new approach and to life. It's true that brain work requires calories -- a knowledge of what calor-- ies can do for you when they're consumed with nutrition and good health in mind. ; ™ C'mon back... we were only fueling!
