HEALTH Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D. Y I i-l 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 POLLY'S POIHTERS Polly Cramer v* 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.

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.
