Lamb, M.D. Bran is low in sodium DEAR DR LAMB - My husband has very high blood pressure and kidney trouble. He has been eating pure bran obtained in one of the health food stores, two teaspoons three times a day, which has helped his bowels. He would like to know if there is any salt in the bran and if so, how much. He also drinks from three to four glasses of skim milk a day. Is there any salt in the milk that could prove harmful? DEAR READER - The only reason for concern about salt is its sodium content. Salt is sodium chloride. When the body retains sodium it retains fluid and in people with high blood pressure this may cause an increase in pressure How severe the sodium restriction must be in a patient’s case depends entire ly on how severe his disease is. Many people with modest high blood pressure can tolerate a reasonable amount of naturally occurring sodium in their common foods without any problem at all. In more severe cases it is wise not only to eliminate adding salt to foods but to select foods that contain little or no sodium. Natural wheat bran is very low in sodium. It contains only 9 milligrams of sodium in 100 grams (3.5 ounces), according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. A normal healthy active adult normally needs about 2.5 grams of salt a day (969 milligrams of sodium) but the average American may consume 10 to 12 grams of salt a day (3875 to 4650 milligrams of sodium). The healthy kidney simply flushes out the excess along with water to maintain the normal salt balance in the body. A cup or glass of milk (half pint) contains 122 milligrams of sodium, far more than the bran Milk contains the same amount of salt as the cow’s body fluids —about the same as for humans That amount of salt is equivalent to the con centration of salt in sea POLLY'S POIHTERS Polly Cramer Ashtrays can make fine candle holders By Polly Cramer DEAR POLLY — I would like to know how to crackle ashtrays or marbles to make candle holders. I have heard that one can either put them in the oven or very hot water. — KIM. DEAR KIM — I am sure we will be hearing from readers who have done this and will share their methods with you. Not too long ago while attending an arts and crafts show, I saw some most attractive candle holders made from clear and colored glass square ashtrays — just as they came from the store, not crackled. It took five ashtrays to make one holder. The first was turned upside down and the other four stood around the sides with the bowls out. They were all “made on the bias” along the edges to fit together perfectly and were held in place by a tough clear glue. They looked quite handsome and candlelight playing on the many facets of the glass was most charming. — POLLY. DEAR POLLY — We found the suggestion for using that product one sprays on stains before washing was great for cleaning shower doors — until we discovered my husband was allergic to it. Now I use a liquid detergent and a stainless steel pad and find that, too, works just great. When all is clean I apply a wheel cleaner wax that can be bought in the auto department of hardware stores. I use this on all bathroom fix tures and glass shower doors and they stay clean longer. Build up is a thing of the past with me. (Polly’s note: Be careful of any wax on the bottom of a tub or shower floor as that invites accidents.) — NORMA. DEAR POLY — Please help me, someone. My electric corn popper has a dark brown scum on the outside due to the oil I use to pop the corn. I have been unable to remove this with scouring pads, etc. so please suggest something. — MRS. L.S. DEAR MRS. L.S. — Have you tried baking soda? Dampen the grease spots only, put soda on them and leave for 10 minutes or so and then scrub with a sponge or plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry. Do not immerse such an electric appliance in water. — POLLY. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN > water. If a person needs to severely restrict the salt in the diet it will be necessary to limit or eliminate the use of milk. In that case calcium supplements may be needed. There are some brands of low salt milk prepared as special foods that are available in some parts of the country and if your husband needs to go this route perhaps the dieti tian or doctor can help him with what is available in your community. Fruits and fruit juices are very low in sodium —about two milligrams in an 8-ounce glass of orange juice. I am sending you The Health Letter number 1-8, Blood Pressure. Others who want this issue 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 am a 16-year-old male. I just started doing calisthenics every day. I used to lift and run only. Are the calisthenics building up muscle bulk? Also, will they tone up my muscles and make them firm? Could you please give me some in formation on calisthenics? DEAR READER - It makes a difference what type of calisthenics you do. In general typical exercises strengthen the muscles that you use for that exercise and often the exercises include stretching and use of body parts through the full range of their motion. Just keep in mind that you can develop terrific arm muscles while your leg muscles wither away if your leg is in a cast and unused. The principle is, if you don’t use it you lose it. So, sensible calisthenics help to improve muscle mass, muscle tone, muscle strength, mobility and endurance only of the parts used.
