Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
His pounds melt away – yours won’t
Should someone recommend a “wonder diet” to you…
one that’s guaranteed to make excess pounds vanish in
a week or so . . . beware of the advice. Pounds never "melt
away" . . . except those of the snowman!
How should you tackle the problem of reducing? First.
face the fact that overweight-in more than 95 percent of
the cases-is caused by eating and drinking too much. To
curb your appetite and change your eating habits
permanently, a lot of will power is required.
Next, see your doctor. He will put you on a diet to remove
weight at a safe rate. He will also see that your diet
includes all the essential nutrients you need-especially proteins,
vitamins and minerals.
Though calorie-laden foods (rich desserts, gravies, dressings,
fried foods) will be restricted, you will be pleasantly
surprised at the varied, appetizing meals you can have
while reducing.
Your doctor may also recommend sensible, regular exercise-
such as walking. Exercise alone won’t solve your
weight problem. But it will help keep your body "in tone"
and use up some calories that would be deposited as fat.
Reducing and keeping your weight down will be worth
all the effort required. That is because excess pounds burden
the entire body, especially the heart.
For example, it’s estimated that every 20 pounds of excess
weight requires the body to develop about 12 extra miles of
blood vessels. Consequently. the heart's work is greatly increased
as it must exert more force to pump blood through
these additional vessels.
Many studies show that overweight also tends to shorten
lire. At age 20 and beyond, those who are considerably
overweight have a mortality rate at least 50 percent higher
than those of average weight.
Morever, diseases of the heart and blood vessels-including
coronary artery disease and high blood pressure-develop
earlier in overweight people than in people of average
weight. So do diabetes and arthritis, as well as gall bladder
and liver troubles.
So. if you bring your weight down and keep it down
permanently, you can expect to have more vigor, more
stamina, better looks, better health-and perhaps added
years of life in which to enjoy them.
