The theme is “East Well, Live Well Meeting Women's Nutritional Needs” This is a timely theme, as there are 10 million adult women in Canada. Women live longer and prac- tice better health habits overall more than men. Ironically though, in the course of their lives, women experience more health problems and use the health care system more than men do. For example, of all the peo ple with eating disorders, 95 percent are female, 5 percent male. In addition, 800,000 Canadians, mostly women, have osteoporosis. Did you know about 37,000 women die every year from heart disease? It is the number one cause of death for women in Canada Poverty, low paying jobs, poor housing, isolation, and lack of support systems, all affect the nutritional well being of women. Stress, life style deci sions abut smoking and being active, as well as balancing their home life with workplace responsibilities also plays an FOOD SENSE TD Carol Potasnyk important role If a women is Native, dis- abled, illiterate, an immigrant, or in some other way a minori- ty, she is even more at risk of poor health When it comes to health and nutrition, women have special needs, but are often unaware of them.

We humans are sometimes not noted for our eager acceptance to change. Speaking for myself it obvious that I've opened up my arms to this major contributor to stress and ulcers, if the last two years are any indication During this relatively short time I have quit a successful six- teen year career in a major city, moved to Castlegar, adopted a life-partner, two step-children (who live with us) and a dog, I've purchased a new vehicle, Started my own business and had my first baby. Is there any change I haven't taken on? Well, bring them on, I’m not stressed enough yet! Honestly, I get a ner- vous twitch just thinking about this I must have had a death wish or something. I did, however live to tell about it and these “experi- ences” have enriched the essence of who I am. Indeed some of these minor events have “changed” me forever in a very Positive way. Oh, I suppose I could concen- trate on the negative effects as my time, home, body, and pos- sessions are no longer my own. Gone completely are my funds, privacy, freedom, hot meals, hol- idays and a good night's sleep. I can no longer afford to drive long distance, go for weekly lun- cheons (Dinner is COMPLETE- LY out of the question), or buy clothing, and phone my mother. To linger in these thoughts is pure folly and I therefore. choose to indulge in the positive results of my life choices. I now have three wonderful children to love, an incredible life-partner rela- tionship, new friends, opportuni- ties and challenges, a beautiful home and a “job” that I truly enjoy. In retrospect my two stepchil- dren have humbled me in their ability to adapt to change. Not only have they endured the same changes as I mentioned above, indeed they went through it with me (and not by choice), but they have also had to deal with miss. ing their mother who lives in a different commynity, going to new schools, daycares etc., and giving up a fair amount of atten tonto their brand new brother. It is amazing the amount of love these children show to the “newcomer” whom we'll call the willing Brenda Scatterty BABY. Other names frequently used are brat, imp, holy terror, monster, milk monger and alien. The “baby” suffers from the “occasional” gas pain and conse- quently needs to do his lung exercises. This of course can occur at any time and often when it’s not at all convenient for the other two children (“A” and “R"), The baby is forever feeding and when we do get him to sleep “A” and “R” would not, dare to make any noises. These poor children have hardly any quality “play time” left. Invariably one parent is now unable to go tuck them in to bed at night. That's usually me and I have to wonder if they miss that special nurturing time as much as I do. Myself and my partner are ALWAYS dog tired and not as patient as we'd like to lay claim to Still, “A" cannot give the baby enough kisses and even “R", the youngest and most vul- nerable is generous with his affection. These children have quite simply embraced these changes and: search for the posi- nutritional needs cerned abut the health of the rest of the family. Actually, there are tremendous payoffs when women follow good nutri- tion patterns. The whole family benefits.

When the children learned their mother was coming to visit, they were bursting with pride to show her their rooms, schools, play grounds, etc. They were espe cially boastfully of the train that goes by our house at least once per day They take great delight in the baby's natural functions. They are fascinated with the feeding process and cannot wait until the baby needs changing so they may see the “loaded” diaper Disappointment is always evi- dent if it is “just wet".
