Clinical studies suggest that cholesterol's role in this lethal process is much more complicated than previously imagined. Some scientists now believe that in certain cases of atherosclerosis, too little HDL may be as important a factor as too much LDL. On the other hand, the higher the level of HDL, the more it may aid in counteracting the effects of the bad cholesterol. This is the view of Dr. William Castelli, medical director of the Framingham Heart Study, a major research project that for the past 40 years has been following the cardiac history of residents of Framingham, Mass...
...MOTHER Fryal, 41, betrays the strain of trying to run a home during a year of anguish. She still oversees her large household with a firm hand, although providing the daily necessities is no longer a simple task. She has drawn up a stringent budget that allocates her husband's paycheck entirely for groceries and the children's clothes and medicine. Amid shortages and strikes, the simple act of buying food has turned into a time-consuming, frustrating chore. Meat is rarely served at her table; even chicken or frozen fish appears no more than once a week...
...legal maneuvering intensified over when and whether Oliver North will go on trial for his role in the Iran-contra fiasco, nonlawyers had reason to wonder about the motives of some of the players. On the one hand, the former Marine lieutenant colonel, who oozed patriotism from misty eyes during the congressional hearings, threatened to reveal some of the nation's most sensitive secrets if the trial proceeds. President Reagan, who has declared North innocent, said last week that he will not pardon his ex-NSC aide in advance of a trial but neither will he allow many...
...Central Park, and its reflection of Trump himself in the gold mirror tile ceiling. Then, if time and security permit, it's on to the private quarters on the top three floors of the building: a sprawling 7,000-sq.-ft. living area with a 12-ft. waterfall and hand-painted ceiling he compares unblushingly to the Sistine Chapel's, a dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, and a library with hand-carved ivory panels. All is beige...
...Blood Institute suggests that Americans limit themselves to 300 mg ( 1/100 oz.) of cholesterol a day. Cholesterol is found only in animal products, sometimes to a high degree: one egg yolk has 272 mg, and 3 oz. of beef liver has 331 mg. Saltwater fish, on the other hand, are extremely low in cholesterol and also contain omega-3 fatty acids, which may lower LDL levels. Not all seafood is as highly recommended: shrimp and crab, for example, have twice as much cholesterol as fish. Grundy's major candidates for removal from the diet are eggs and organ meats, such...
