IVEIGHT-LOSS DIETS WHY THEY FAIL
C- E
The problem with the "carbohydrate diet" or the "no meat diet" or the "whatever
diet" is that the majority of people have hidden food allergies.
Your diet is doomed before you start if it includes foods you are allergic to or if by
food repetition it creates new allergies. A very common problem of food allergy is excess
water retention. It is not uncommon to see persons following a non-allergenic diet to lose
7-10 pounds---of water in the first 10-15 days. The greater problem is food addiction. In
order to prevent your symptoms of food allergies from appearing, you end up craving
certain foods—you literally are addicted to certain foods.
That addiction forces you to break your diet. Between food addiction and water re-
tention your diet is bound to fail!
Now the combination of our Cytotoxic test for food allergies, our dietary counseling
and a personalized, computerized diet can make the dramatic difference in how you look

Women Rabbis Total Nearly 100
NEW YORK (JTA) —
There are currently 17
women rabbinical students
in the final year of their Re-
form studies and two
women candidates in their
final. year at the Recon-
structionist Rabbinical Col-
lege (RRC) whose expected
ordination next summer
will bring to 94 the total
number of American
women ordained as rabbis
since such ordination began
11 years ago, according to
an annual Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency survey.
Moreover, assuming that
the 15 women Reform can-
didates now in their next-
to-last year, and the five
women Reconstructionist
candidates also in the same

year, complete their studies
and are ordained, the total
of ordained women rabbis
will substantially top 100
by the summer of 1985. •
Twelve women were or-
dained as Reform rabbis
last May, and two as Recon-
structionist rabbis in June,
according to data provided
by the Hebrew Union
College-Jewish Institute of
Religion (HUC-JIR), the
Reform seminary, and the
RCC.
Currently, including the
women candidates in their
last year of study, there are
73 women and 119 men
studying for the Reform
rabbinate, for a total of 192
Reform rabbinical candi-
dates during the current
academic year.
There are 27 men and 21
women studying for the
rabbinate this year at the
RCC, for a total of 48 Recon-
structionist rabbinical can-
didates.
Those two ceremonies
brought to 75 the total
number of women or-
dained as rabbis since
Sally Preisand was or-
dained by the Reform
seminary as the first
woman rabbi in Ameri-
can Jewish history. The
RCC is now located in
Wyncote, Pa., near
Philadelphia. The HUC-
JIR has campuses in New
York, Cincinnati and Los
Angeles.
A completely new
chapter in the history of
preparation of American
Jewish women for rab-
binical study is expected
to begin next September
when the rabbinical
school of the Jewish
Theological Seminary of
America (JTS) in Man-
hattan is expected to
admit its first class in its
history of women candi-
dates for the Conserva-
tive rabbinate.
There are now five more
Reform- women rabbinical
candidates in their final
year of studies than during
the 1982-1983 year but the
same number — two — for
each of those academic
years at the RCC.
That step was made
possible, after years of fre-
quently heated debate in
the Conservative move-
ment, by the decision, of the
JTS faculty last Oct. 24 to
admit women to the JTS
rabbinical school.
