How many eggs?
By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.
DEAR DR. LAMB - I have
become quite concerned about
the new things I have been
hearing about eggs and how
they contribute to cholesterol
in the blood stream.
I am largely responsible for
cooking for my family I want
to prevent any possible heart
trouble for as long as possible.
I would like to know how
many eggs I can safely serve
each day or week 9 I mean
eggs included in other foods
such as in custards, puddings,
cookies, cakes and what have
you.
I understand that heart at
tacks do give warnings,
sometimes several hours
before they strike. I hear that
if you have had any chest pain
or pain in the left shoulder or
left side of the neck followed
by excessive tiredness you
should get to a doctor as fast
as you can.
I'd appreciate full infor
mation on these topics. 1 do
not think we are having any
trouble in this area, but I want
to be prepared as much as
possible since we do not have
a doctor in this city.
DEAR READER - The
American Heart Assn,
recommends that the total
consumption of egg yolks
should not exceed three yolks
a week including all of those
used in cooking of any sort.
The dietary program you
need to follow is much more
complicated than that though.
If you don't restrict your
calories from any source to
the point of preventing or
eliminating obesity, your
dietary program may not be
very helpful
I am sending you The
Health Letter number 1-3,
Diet, Preventing
Atherosclerosis, which will
give you the general
guidelines you need. Others

New cure for cat odors
POLLY’S PROBLEM
DEAR POLLY — My cat wet on my rug and I cannot
get rid of the odor even though I have used a disinfectant
in water and pine scented ammonia. After anything
dries the odor is still there. —PAULINE.
DEAR PAULINE — Perhaps Mrs. E.P.’s letter will
be of help to you.
DEAR POLLY —1 use the same method getting rid of cat
odors that my mother used many years ago I put a small rag
in a frying pan and set it on fire. This is not dangerous if used
carefully and it removed the odor completely. Keep a lid for
the pan in your other hand so as to smother the fire if
necessary. I do not think sprays for the air will remove cat
odors. —MRS. E.P. (Polly’s note: Do not set the pan on your
carpet but hold it in your hand near the places that have the
odor and follow directions for holding the lid so as to have it
ready if needed.)
DEAR POLLY — My Pet Peeve is with recipes that say
eight tablespoons of butter or whatever instead of one-half
cup. and three teaspoons instead of one tablespoon, which is
the same. That is making us do it the hard way.—LOIS.
DEAR POLLY — To keep your pictures hanging straight,
wrap masking tape, wrong side out, around the middle of a
rounded toothpick and put at the bottom near the corners of
the back of the picture and it will always hang straight.
An old metal shoe rack can be nailed to the garage door or
wall to make a great holder for garden tools.
When one does not have drawer space for storing extra
pillows hang them on pants hangers in a closet.
An old broom with frayed and spreading bristles can be
renewed by soaking the bristles in water for a few minutes and
then putting a strong rubber band around the bristles just
below the stitching. When bristles are dry remove the rubber
band. —NORA.
Polly will send you one of her signed thank-you newspaper
coupon clippers if she uses your favorite Pointer. Peeve or
Problem in her column. Write POLLY’S POINTERS in care of
this newspaper.

who want this information can
send 50 cents with a long,
stamped, self-addressed
envelope for it to P.O. Box
1551. Radio City Station. New-
York. N.Y.. 10019. You will
need to restrict your total fat
consumption and particularly
your saturated fat intake
Almost all fat in foods is
made up of saturated fat and
unsaturated fat. There are
two types of unsaturated fat.
monounsaturated fat and
polyunsaturated fat Even
beef fat contains all three.
The important principle is to
limit the total fat consump
tion and choose foods that
have little saturated fat and
more polyunsaturated fat in
them.
From this point of view you
should use corn oil or
safflower oil for cooking but
not coconut oil. Corn oil con
tains only about 10 per cent
saturated fat. About 80 per
cent of coconut oil and palm
oil is saturated fat. About a
third of the fat in fish is
polyunsaturated but only
about two per cent of the fat in
beef is polyunsaturated
Monounsaturated fats are
not harmful as saturated fats
may be other than adding to
the total fat consumption
which you should limit.
No. it is not true that heart
attacks always give you a
warning. Too often the first
symptom is the sudden attack
and about half of these vic
-tims die before they get to the
hospital. This is why a preven
tive program is so important.
When the first symptom is
fatal you need to do something
before the first symptom oc
curs.

mail Dr Lamb cannot answer
your letters personally but he

letters of general interest in
