EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster from 1918, titled "Hygiene de guerre" or "War Hygiene," depicts a mother in the heart of her home, serving dinner to her family. The scene is one of warmth and nourishment, yet a closer look reveals the importance of health and nutrition during wartime. Beneath the image, a series of rules for maintaining a healthy diet are meticulously written. The first rule, "Manger régulièrement" or "Eat regularly," emphasizes the importance of consistent meals for maintaining energy and overall health. The second rule, "Manger en famille" or "Eat with the family," encourages the importance of social connections and shared meals in promoting mental and emotional wellbeing. The following rules focus on specific food groups and their importance in a balanced diet. "Manger beaucoup de pain" or "Eat a lot of bread," suggests that bread, a staple food during this time, can provide essential nutrients when paired with other nutrient-dense foods. "Manger beaucoup de légumes" or "Eat a lot of vegetables," highlights the importance of consuming a variety of colorful produce for their vitamin and mineral content. "Manger beaucoup de fruits" or "Eat a lot of fruits," encourages the consumption of fresh fruits for their natural sugars and fiber. The final rule, "Ne pas manger trop de sucre" or "Don't eat too much sugar," serves as a reminder to limit the intake of added sugars, which can weaken the immune system and contribute to various health issues. This poignant poster not only captures the essence of a mother's love and care during wartime but also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy diet to support the physical and emotional wellbeing of soldiers and civilians alike.
