DR. LAWRENCE E. LAMB
What good will
Lecithin do?
By Lawrence Lamb, M.D.
Dear Dr. Lamb — After
reading several articles and
paperbacks on the subject of
lecithin, I purchased a large
bottle and after finishing it
purchased another one. Later
I read that gallstones are
composed in part of lecithin,
I looked the word up in the
dictionary and found the de
scription “the yolk of an egg,
a nitrogenous fatty sub
stance found in nerve tissue,
blood, milk, egg yolk, and
some vegetables.”
My sister and I have been
watching our cholesterol and
avoiding foods that would
raise the count. Ours are
both high. I looked up the
definition of the word choles
terol and it sounds much like
lecithin. Our problem is
whether we should continue
taking these or not. We have
a family history of hardening
of the arteries and were un
der the impression after
reading articles that lecithin
was valuable for this condi
tion as well as many heart
problems. We are 58 and 60
years old.
Dear Reader — Unfortu
nately, the experiments done
by reputable scientists trying
to use lecithin to lower
cholesterol or prevent
atheresclerosis have proved
that it has no value in this
regard. At the same time in
limited amounts it won’t
cause any harm. It is not the
same thing as cholesterol. It
combines some of the fatty
particles in the blood to help
form a related fat particle
which some scientists
thought would prevent the
fatty particles from deposit
ing in the arteries. Unfortu
nately, this hasn’t proved to
be the case. I don’t believe it
will contribute to gallstones
either.
Dear Dr. Lamb — I have
heard it mentioned that X
ray treatments might be
beneficial to prevent attacks
or decreasing the severity of
attacks of arthritis or osteo
arthritis. Please give your
valued opinion on this com
ment.
Dear Reader — There is
no evidence whatever that X
ray treatment will help arth
ritis or osteoarthritis. There
is an inexhaustible list of
things that have been recom-
Artificial Trees ‘Big’
Now, Need Safety Care
By AILEEN SNODDY
The use of artificial
Christmas trees has doubled
in popularity in the last five
years. It is estimated that
plastic trees, for example,
this year will help to beau
tify about one out of three
North American homes.
For this reason, more care
than ever is needed to avoid
possible fires in the home.
General Electric lighting ex
perts offer these do’s and
dont’s for safe, effective
lighting of artificial trees:
• Use string sets with new,
cooler bulbs. Plastic needles
are more sensitive to heat
than natural needles and will
melt if subjected to exces
sive heat.
Typical of cooler bulbs are
Cool Brights, Merry Twinkles
and all string sets with midg
et type bulbs. Also cooler

Christmas is more than an inside story when it
comes to picturing those holiday decorations. Doors

mended as cures for arth
ritis. It is safe to say that
most of those that are recom
mended, particularly if they
are advertised, are worth
less, and in some instances
downright frauds. The quack
medicines foisted on the pub
lic for treatment of arthritis
are astonishing. You will not
find these kinds of recom
mendations being made by
reputable physicians.
There are a number of
medicines which are helpful
in the treatment of arthritis
but they don’t offer cures.
The rheumatoid or inflam
matory type of arthritis
sometimes subsides on its
own and some medicines ap
pear to help to control or
slow the process.
Osteoarthritis is the result
of wear and tear most often
associated with increasing
age and while pain relievers
are useful for it, they won’t
cure the process.
Everyone who has arth
ritis deserves a careful med
ical evaluation by his family
doctor and should try to fol
low his advice. There is no
sure cure for arthritis at this
writing, and none seem like
ly in the near future.

TRUSTY UNTRUSTWORTHY
COSTA MESA, Calif. (UPI)
—Vernon Buzick was supposed
to get City Manager Fred
Sorsabal’s car clean, not clean
away.
Sorsabal dropped his city car
off at the police station
Tuesday, where Buzick, 29, a
jail trusty serving six months
for conpiracy in a theft case,
usually washed it.
But when Sorsabal returned,
both car and Buzick had
vanished, police said.
Buzick was arrested three
hours later on charges of grand
theft and escape. “He’s back in
jail—but not as a trusty,” a
police lieutenant said.
are lighted ornaments con
taining midget bulbs.
• Also avoid ceramic
coated or translucent bulbs.
Though delightfully rich in
color, they are warm enough
to deform plastic needles.
These bulbs were designed
for use on natural trees and
for general decoration.
• For a more dramatic ef
fect this year give your plas
tic tree an over-all color by
using a floodlight, perhaps a
color floodlight or a color
wheel with a clear bulb.
But whatever lighted string
or floodlight fixture you buy,
look for the Underwriter’s
Laboratory tag and remem
ber that an old string of
lights may be outdated by
today’s type of tree. Play it
safe. Don’t pinch pennies
and take a chance on having
a fire.
