Overview

Excerpt from Canned Fruit, Preserves, and Jellies: Household Methods of Preparation The common fruits, because of their low nutritive value, are not, as a rule, estimated at their real worth as food. Fruit has great die tetic value and should be used gener ously and wisely, both fresh and cooked. Fruits supply a variety of flavors, sugar, acids, and a necessary waste or bulky material for aiding in intestinal movement. They are generally rich in potash and soda salts and other minerals. Most fresh fruits are cooling and refreshing. The vegetable acids have a solvent power on the nutrients and are an aid to digestion when not taken in excess.
