WORKING WITH WINSTON: THE UNSUNG WOMEN BEHIND BRITAIN’S GREATEST STATESMAN

THURSDAY, AUGUST 15 • 1:00 WITH CITA STELZER

An original and insightful look at Winston Churchill through the eyes of those who knew him

best―the female secretaries who worked with him throughout his life. Just as Winston Churchill was no

ordinary Prime Minister, these women were not ordinary secretaries. They did everything from feeding

Churchill’s fish to working under fire in war-torn Greece.

A treasure trove of insight and research, Working with Winston reveals the man behind the

statesman as well as bringing long-overdue recognition to the “hidden army” that, like Churchill, was never

off-duty.

Cita Stelzer is a long-time Aspen resident and the author of another book on Churchill.

By Lynn Grieger, RDN, CDE, CPT, CHWC

Published July 19, 2019

We've all had a wound: a cut, scratch or scrape that

breaks the skin. Most wounds on

healthy people heal quickly when

kept clean and free of infection,

while other types of wounds are

more serious and often require

medical intervention.

Serious wounds may include decubitus ulcers, also known

as pressure sores or bed sores, which develop where bones

are close to the skin — such as ankles, back, elbows, heels

and hips. These wounds are a risk for people who are

bedridden, use a wheelchair or are unable to change their

position. People with diabetes also have a higher risk of

developing foot ulcers that can take weeks or months to heal.

Fortunately, healthful food choices may help with recovery by

providing the energy, vitamin, mineral and protein

requirements necessary to promote healing.

Promote Wound Healing with Good Nutrition

1. Plan healthy, balanced meals and snacks that include the

right amount of foods from all the MyPlate food groups —

protein, fruits, vegetables, dairy and grains.

2. Choose vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C, such as

strawberries or spinach. For adequate zinc, choose whole

grains and consume protein, such as eggs, meat, dairy or

seafood. Some wounds may require a higher intake of

certain vitamins and minerals to support healing. Speak

with your healthcare provider before starting any new

supplements.

3. Include adequate protein throughout the day. Include a

source of protein at each meal or snack. A sample menu

may include scrambled eggs for breakfast, black bean

tacos for lunch, yogurt or cheese for a snack and chicken

at dinner.

4. Stay well-hydrated with water or other unsweetened

beverages.

5. For people with diabetes, control blood sugar levels to

help prevent wounds from developing and to support

healing and recovery.

A registered dietitian nutritionist can develop an individualized

eating plan with optimum amounts of calories, protein, fluids,

vitamins and minerals for your specific needs.
