Med Center to sponsor nutrition program
By TOM HUTTON Staff Reporter
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A program to help dieters and other people concerned with the content and effect of food will begin next week and continue through all of March at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
The outpatient division of the dietetics and nutrition department will begin next Monday, the start of National Nutrition month, to inform people about daily nutrition needs, health relations related to diet and how to lose weight.
Using films in the Med Center cafeteria and an information booth in the lobby, the program will show how food affects daily life, Beth Schindler,
dietetic intern and chairman of nutrition month, said yesterday.
Films will be shown 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The workshop will be open Mondays only.
Next week the outpatient division will show "Tomorrow We Shall Diet" and also calculate the calorie intake of volunteers at the Mid Center, Schinder
Using a food nomenogram, which was first developed by the Mayo Clinic, the dieticians will calculate how many calories are necessary for adequate nutrition. The nomogram uses height, age to determine ideal caloric intake.
The quickest way to ruin a diet and calorie intake is by eating junk food, Jeanette Whitney, director of outpatient dietetics, said.

A report on the caloric content of food
According to the report, a 48% ounce fruit pie contains more than 400 calories and a Milk Way bar has 240 calories. A Pumpkin Pie requires 170 calories required to lose weight. Whitney said.
The second week of the program, the slide presentation "Eating Slim," will be shown. This presentation will deal with how much food is needed, Schindler said.
"Most people don't realize how much they eat," Schindler said. "What we'll do in the booth is measure how much the people have been eating and then show them how much is really needed. Usually, they are really surprised."
The third week of the program will show "Eat to Your Heart's Content," which is supposed to show the harmful
effect of some foods on the cardiovascular system. A test will be given at the booth to see how much people eat food and their heart, Schindler said.

Besides handling the nutrition month, the department of dietetics and nutrition's outpatient division handles the other areas of the hospital, Whitney said.
