things, but it has paid off. I
am 62 years old, six feet tall,
weight 155 pounds, chest 41,
waist 33, blood pressure
134/76 and all of my health
records are pretty good.
On my last examination
my cholesterol was 238 which
I know is not necessarily
high but it is higher than I
want it to be. Since then I
have cut down on a lot of
things—eggs, cheese. I have
been a great lover of eggs
and breakfast just doesn’t
seem right without them. I
want to ask, and you might
want to answer in your col-
umn since people are inter
ested in eggs, what you think
about my program. For
breakfast I use three eggs,
throwing two of the yolks
away and either frying the
Page 23
large egg or scrambling it
in safflower oil. Will the leci
thin in the three whites off
set the cholesterol in the
yolk?
Dear Reader—First things
first. Your blood cholesterol
level would be considered
normal by many people al
though it is true that the
lower it is the less likelihood
one has of developing block
age of their arteries with
fatty deposits. A single
cholesterol reading doesn’t
mean too much since it can
fluctuate. When a person is
Griffin Daily News Monday, November 20,1972
under stress it will occasion
ally be elevated and return
to normal after the stress
has abated. Several determi
nations are necessary to get
a good idea of the actual
cholesterol level.
About eggs, the American
Heart Assn, diet recommends
no more than three egg yolks
a week including those in
cooking. The Inter-Society
Commission on Heart Dis
ease’s recommendation is
that you shouldn’t get more
than 300 milligrams of
cholesterol a day in your
diet and egg yolks have from
225 to 275 milligrams. If a
person has a low blood
cholesterol and stays lean as
you have perhaps this is less
important. Many authorities
would feel that keeping your
weight down and your fat
intake down are equally or
more important than the
amount of cholesterol in your
diet.
I talked to Dr. Jerimiah
Stamler in Chicago who has
done much of the pioneer re
search in cholesterol as re
lated to atherosclerosis. Spe
cifically, I asked him about
the lecithin question which
many readers keep asking
about. The idea originally
was that lecithin by produc
ing some soluble factors in
the blood would help keep
the cholesterol and fat par
ticles in solution and prevent
atherosclerosis. Unfortun
ately when this was tested
experimentally it didn’t work
that way. Lecithin from any
source has not been found to
do anything to keep the blood
cholesterol level down or to
prevent atherosclerosis.
I would also like to take
this opportunity to use you
as an example of what can
be done. Despite your height,
you have not picked up an
appreciable quantity of
weight as attested by your
waistline and chest meas
urements. The youthful look
ing photograph you enclosed
of yourself is testimony of
what can be done with good
living habits. Health nuts
often live longer than their
friends who are not.

Gov. Bumpers
thinks Demos
need new leaders
WASHINGTON (UPI) -The
leader of the Democratic
Governors Conference believes
his party must have new
leadership following its pres
idential election defeat but feels
the ouster of National Chair
man Jean Westwood need not
necessarily be carried out next
month.
Gov. Dale Bumpers of
Arkansas said Sunday the
Democrats need a chairman
who “will help us all lower our
voices and raise our ideals a
little bit.” He indicated he did
not believe Mrs. Westwood, the
hand-picked chairman of pres
idential candidate George S.
McGovern, could unify the
party.
Bumpers also said, when
asked what McGovern’s role in
the party should be, that he had
“never believed in this business
of titular heads of the party.”
He said, however, he believed
McGovern would continue to
play a very active role in the
party “as he rightfully should.”
The Democratic governors
will meet Dec. 3 in St. Louis
and at that time may make a
recommendation on the party
leadership. Last week, Bumpers
and four fellow Democratic
governors met in the Washing
ton suburbs and issued a
statement calling on Mrs.
Westwood to step down.
The 303-member Democratic
National Committee will meet
in Washington Dec. 9 and may
decide the issue of party
leadership at that time. For her
part, Mrs. Westwood has said
she will not resign and does not
intend to serve as a “scape
goat” for McGovern’s landslide
defeat by President Nixon.
The Arkansas governor was
interviewed on CBS News’
“Face the Nation.”
Bumpers declined to say who
he believed should be named
party chairman. He said he
believed there were a number
of Democrats who were
“eminently qualified” for the
job. He said it was “probably
true” that new leadership
should be more centrist.
“Certainly this past election
has demonstrated that the
mood of the country was highly
centrist,” Bumpers said.
Bumpers said he believed
there should be “another look”
at rules designed to give young
people, women and minority
groups a greater voice in party
affairs. He said the rules
“actually distorted the demo
cratic process.”
