Here are some nutritional Capsule Comments... If you are supplementing your diet with calcium, don't take the calcium with foods high In fibre. High fibre foods can reduce your absorption of calcium. So separate them by an hour or two. Grapefruit doesn't bum fat away. It doesn't contain any magic ingre- dients to increase the rate the body bums fat. However, it Is high In vi- tamin C and certainly replacing some high-fat foods with grapefruit will help you lose weight. If you are trying to reduce your sugar Intake by avoiding foods with 'sug- ar' on the label, you should watch for other products that also signify a form of sugar. Some examples Include mannitol, lactose, sorbitol, fruc- tose, com syrup, glucose and dextrose. The Chinese have lower cholesterol readings than North Americans. The Chinese diet Is lower In fat, higher In fruits and vegetables and also higher in fibre. They eat less meat too and this results In lower cardio- vascular disease.

This material is a fungus called Snow Mold. This fungus is contained in the soil. Cool, wet conditions with or without snow cover will cause this disease to flourish. A properly fertilized, well-maintained lawn is most resistant to damage from snow mold. A vigorous raking in early spring through the snow mold residue will help reduce this disease and quicken the turfgrass healing process. Next Week: Spring Clean Up.
