60. The Different Foods. The body is very exacting in its demands,
requiring certain definite foods for the formation and maintenance of
its cells, and other foods, equally definite, but of different
character, for heat; our diet therefore must contain foods of high
fuel value, and likewise foods of cell-forming power.


Although the foods which we eat are of widely different character,
such as fruits, vegetables, cereals, oils, meats, eggs, milk, cheese,
etc., they can be put into three great classes: the carbohydrates, the
fats, and the proteids.
