Instalment of Health Corner
Good Transmission was a monthly magazine curated by the employees of the Philippine long distance telephone company. Alongside various articles, the issues of this particular magazine included sections or “corners” in which various other topics are presented. For instance, we can find the “Better English Corner”, destined to teach its readers an aspect of the English language through lessons and exercises.
The “Health Corner” is similar to the “Better English Corner” in their shared purpose of educating. A miss A. Valenciano was the journalist in charge of this particular corner. In this issue, she attempts to educate the readers on the topic of nutrition and a balanced diet. She does this by giving an example of a breakfast, lunch and dinner that could be part of this diet. Furthermore, she explains and enumerates some nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins and fats, in what foods they can be found and why they are important for our health.
