PAGE 15 • Dietician speaks at Diabetic Project The Brussels. Morris and Grey Diabetic Project met on Wednesday, Sept. 15 at Huronlea in Brussels with 20 people in attendance. Nelva Scott welcomed everyone back from their summer holiday and introduced Heather Mann, registered dietitian. She described her journey through education and employment including her current position working in North Wellington. She began her presentation by stating that 80 per cent of diabetics will have some sort of heart event during their lifetime. To help prevent such an event, members were encouraged to have their blood cholesterol checked every one to three years. Using an overhead she showed the difference between good and bad fats and the reason why diabetics need to know where the hidden bad fats can be found. Going through the diabetic categories of the meal plan, fats, proteins, carbohydrates, Ms Mann pointed out where the good versus bad fats can be found and suggested better choices. Reading labels is important, but can be confusing at this time. She added that, by Jan. 2006 all companies must comply with a new and improved way of listing .ingredients as fats, proteins and carbs. In summary she said to keep healthy diabetics need to limit their intake of high cholesterol foods, choose high-fibre foods, limit their intake of sugar, alcohol and salt. Ms Mann distributed a handout entitled Healthy Eating for Diabetes and Your Heart from North Wellington Health Care. Mrs. Scott thanked Ms Mann. The group broke for a discussion time over a light lunch. The meeting resumed with the business portion where Mrs. Scott thanked all those who in the past and present have contributed to the Brussels, Morris and Grey Diabetic Project by becoming a director. The position does not require a great deal of time but is necessary to keep the group's needs and wants on target. She then asked who would stand for the coming year as directors. Those willing to become directors are as follows: Dianne Fetter, Linda Walker, Judy Hahn, Madeline Steiss, Marie Pulfer, Nelva Scott and Marg Casemore. A vote accepted the proposed nominations. This was followed by the treasurer's report. The next meeting be Wednesday, Oct. 20 with Dr. Brad Murray, chiropractor from Teeswater speaking. 22 attend Lodge meeting Country Fare By Patricia Ham, Auburn School House To begin the year a turkey dinner was enjoyed by approximately 22 Morning Star Rebekah Lodge members.
