and they need more protein foods,

[00:09:34]
and they need to be taught to eat higher protein foods,

[00:09:38]
they need to be taught to chew meat, very early

[00:09:41]
so that they would do it when they become older

[00:09:45]
and, uh, a little meat, and egg, and two/three glasses of milk a day

[00:09:52]
make a great deal of difference

[00:09:54]
in the amount of muscle that a child can grow at this period.

[00:09:59]

{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
Well protein for muscles is a good slogan then isn't it
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
It is

[00:10:02]

{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
and particularly for these youngsters at this age,
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
we think so, particularly, yes, uh-huh

[00:10:05]
{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
and you say it's meat and eggs and milk

[00:10:10]

{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
for, for these
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
for us, yes, many countries can have those proteins

[00:10:14]
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
but we can, because there are cheap cuts of meat,

[00:10:18]
that are very nutritious.

[00:10:20]
Milk, dried skim milk is just as nutritious,

[00:10:24]
and very cheap, so at almost any level,

[00:10:28]
that we have to spend on our food

[00:10:31]
we can get good nutrition.

[00:10:34]
Good protein nutrition

[00:10:35]

{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
well that's that's very interesting and you need a lot of that, to-
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
You need a lot of it.

[00:10:39]
{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
Well how about the older people, although you haven't been working in that field

[00:10:41]
you know about it, should there be a higher protein intake if you're -

[00:10:47]
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
well, uh, most, you mean adults?
{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
Yes.
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
Most adults-
{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
Or adolescents-

[00:10:51]
-adolescents can still and will take indefinite amounts of protein

[00:10:56]
if they're allowed to through childhood they need a high protein diet

[00:11:02]
and until they have their growth completely,

[00:11:04]
but unfortunately most of us adults overeat

[00:11:08]
{SPEAKER name="Watson Davis"}
You mean retired businessman shouldn't have steaks perhaps, or-
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
Oh yes, he doesn't-

[00:11:13]
{SPEAKER name="Genevieve Stearns"}
He doesn't need a steak as big as his two hands, [[laughter]]

[00:11:18]
his adolescent son can use it and handle it very well

[00:11:22]
but the tired businessmen would do probably a lot better

[00:11:26]
if he cut at least a third off his diet

[00:11:30]
and exercised at least twice as much or more, regularly.

[00:11:37]
We tend to eat the food our children should have
