Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
What are good cholesterol readings? Using
Canadian units, total cholesterol ideally
should be under 5.2. The HDL ("Good cho•
lesterol) levels should be above 1.6. Cardibvascular risk
factors increase if HDL falls below 0.9. Risk factors rise
if LDL (bad cholesterol) rises above 4.1. Yourtdoctor is
the best Judge of your results.
The hot flashes of menopause could be harder to treat if
the woman smokes. The inhaled smoke affects the
metabolism of estrogens causing less to be available to
the body. Estrogen supplements help suppress these
hot flashes. Another reason to quit smoking!
Vitamin .0 is a water-soluble vitamin. You will absorb
more if you divide your total daily intake into two doses
(with breakfast and supper).
Foods consumed at bedtime have no more of an influ-
ence on weight -grain than food eaten at other times of
the day. It's the number of calories you consume daily
that puts the weight on, not the time of day you eat. The
calories consumed at night will be burned off when
needed. (You even bum 50 calories per hour while you ,
sleep.)
