VOTE LOSSY FULLER FOR MAYOR November 14 Authorized uy CFO for the Lossy Fuller campaign" Capsule Comments with Ernie Miatello October is Lupus Awareness Month. Lupus is an inflammatory disease in which the body overproduces certain antibodies which are di- rected against its own tissue. The cause is un- known but symptoms include skin rashes joint pain, chest and abdominal pain, and kidney problems. Those ideal -weight tables indicate what you should weigh for your height. Men weighing 20% below those averages had the lowest death rates from heart attacks while those 20% or more above showed death rates over twice those of normal weight. Many people supplement with vitamins and minerals. The theory that if some is good, more is better, doesn't work with zinc. Too much zinc can have an affect on copper metabolism which in turn can cause anemia. One other mineral interaction is taking calcium and iron together. The calcium can hinder the absorption of the iron. So if you take iron supplements and calcium, either as a supplement or in ant- acids, separate the two by a few hours. • You'll get more value from your prescription if you take it accord- ing to your doctor's specific instructions. We will help you un- derstand these instructions thoroughly. HURON APOTHECARY Ltd.
