LAMB - I have low blood sugar My doctor tells me not to eat anything with sugar in it — including fresh fruit. Also to watch my starch intake. I would think eating sweets would bring the blood sugar level up. Would you please ex plain this? DEAR READER - In general I do not think the diagnosis of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) is justified unless one can demonstrate the blood glucose level is ac tually low at the time symp toms of hypoglycemia occur. Symptoms by themselves can be anything including anxiety and many normal people have low blood glucose levels with no symptoms — or disorder — at all. If you really have hypoglycemia it is important to find out why. Hypoglycemia is a finding, not a diagnosis. It can be caused by a tumor of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas or many other diseases. In some people it seems to be triggered by a high level of glucose in the intestine, just outside the stomach where most of the absorption of food takes place. Drinking sweets that empty immediately into the small intestine is one way to induce this response in over-reactive people. Any concentrated sweets — or starches which are broken down into glucose — may do this. Note here that starch is just a combination of glucose molecules and when they are broken down they are really glucose sugar. Also note that whether the food is rapidly emptied by the stomach or not is important. Here is where many people slip up on food recommen dations. A number of vegetables and bulky fruits — raw, unsweetened — can be eaten because they are emp tied slowly, a little at a time, into the intestine and never r Polly’s Pointers Bread wrapper tags get double duty By Polly (Tamer Polly’s Problem DEAR POLLY — I have accumulated a lot of those square plastic bags from bread and roll wrappers. I am sure they must be good to use for something, and would like to hear some of the uses the readers have found for them. — MARY JO. DEAR POLLY — My Pet Peeve is with buying turkeys. It makes me so mad to buy what is advertised as a whole turkey and then get it home and find one whole leg or thigh missing. This is false advertising. They fix the turkeys in packages so you cannot see the legs. I have had this happen several times at the same store. It looks like they remove these aparts and sell them separately and make more money off each turkey. - MRS. M R, DEAR MRS. M.R. — Have you spoken to the store manager about this? He may be delighted to know this has happened to you and will want to make some adjustment. At least try and give him the chance. — POLLY. DEAR POLLY — Use a marking pen to write a small ”d’’ or “s” in a corner of each of your sheets so you will know at a glance which are single and which are double ones To garnish salads, cold meat platters or sandwiches, cut small sweet pickles in thin lengthwise slices from the tip almost to the end and spread the slices like a fan. I polish my children’s shoes with paste floor polish. Its neutral color may be used on either light or dark shoes and this gives them a good protective coating against water and scuffs. Place muffins in the top of a double boiler to reheat them or just to keep them warm. Use hot water instead of cold when sprinkling clothes It penetrates the material more evenly and makes ironing quicker and easier. — FRANCES. DEAR POLLY — After oiling my sewing machine. I find it is a good idea to sew through a blotter. The blotter will absorb any surplus oil that might stain the next thing you sew on the machine. When separating the white from the yolk of an egg and a bit of the volk drops into the white, it can be easily removed with a clean wet cloth. The yolk adheres to this. — JEAN.

Bulky foods such as leafy vegetables and raw apples in moderation are in this group. Obviously neither fats nor proteins will increase the con centration of glucose in the small intestine and will not trigger an overproduction of insulin or a faulty time release of insulin — hence no hypoglycemia attacks. That is why your doctor has advised you to avoid sweets and starches. To give you more in formation I am sending you The Health Letter number 3-9, Low Blood Sugar: Hypoglycemia. Others who want this information can send 50 cents for it with a long, stamped, self-addressed envelope. Write to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 1551, Radio City Station, New York, NY 10019. DEAR DR. LAMB - I have a question to ask you. It is about my granddaughter. She is 4 months old and the soft spot on top of her head is clos ed already. What does that mean, brain damage or not? She seems all right in every way. She smiles and looks at everyone when we talk to her She is strong, too, and is able to roll over. DEAR READER - The soft spots of a baby’s skull are called fontanels. There are two, one at the front part of the skull and one at the back near the top The back one normally closes by four months. I suspect that is what you are feeling. The front one usually closes between nine and 18 months There are lots of better ways to tell if a baby is developing normally I am sure the baby’s doctor has checked these. These relate to the baby’s response to con tact, such as the smile you mention (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN i FRANK AND ERNEST by Bob Thoves FRAAIk £ FPMIF'S ASK ABOUT OUR I ~ J™.* SPECIAL! ! — AT THft HALF FOREIGN LANGUAGE __ price rate we 'ran I SCHOOL o teach you n® UJZLM W speak ONLY • French • OUR BOARDING HOUSE with Major Hoople SHORT RIBS WU ARE TThANKS.
