It happened . . . in Milford

10 YEARS AGO, MARCH 15,1978 Northern Indiana Public Service Company (NIPSCo) engineers and town officials in Milford agreed turning off town streetlights is not necessary at this time. Dr. T. A. Miller, president of the Milford Town Board, reported NIPSCo engineers came to Milford and talked over the situation. Since the streetlights require climbing to remove the bulbs, the engineers and town officials agreed the measure wasn’t necessary.

Cholesterol facts for Nutrition Month

By ARMINA SCHMUCKER I Clinical Dietitian Kosciusko Community Hospital

Although it has become one of the most discussed and written about topics of the ’Bos, many Americans are still unaware of the important role that cholesterol plays in their diets. According to a recent major study conducted by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, only 23 percent of the population have tried to lower their cholesterol levels; this despite the fact that an estimated 60 percent have cholesterol levels high enough to increase their risk of heart disease. In an effort to increase the

Food poisoning con be prevented

(NU) — Food poisoning is a serious problem to which more than two million Americans fall victim each year, according to the Department of Agriculture. Yet most food poisoning can be prevented by proper food storage and preparation. Microscopic organisms cause food spoilage and food poisoning, though different organisms are responsible for each. Spoiled food is usually easy to recognize from its bad taste and smell, but food contaminated by food poisoning bacteria is not as easy to spot. Proper and prompt refrigeration is important in limiting the development of food poisoning bacteria, since most cannot tolerate low temperatures. The bacteria, yeasts, and mold which cause simple food spoilage, however, can grow even at refrigerator temperature, which is why food can still spoil even though stored in a refrigerator. One can limit opportunities for food poisoning contamination. Place perishable items quickly in the refrigerator. (This includes storing leftovers while still warm). Thaw frozen meat or poultry overnight in the

public’s cholesterol awareness during March, National Nutrition Month, dietitians at ARA Services, which serves 400,000 meals per day at 330 hospitals and nursing homes nationwide, offer the following information. Basic Facts Cholesterol is an essential substance used in many of the body’s chemical processes such as producing vitamin D and certain hormones, protecting nerves from damage and making cells strong. However, it is not a needed nutrient in the diet after the age of six since the needed cholesterol is extracted from the food we eat every day. Unfortunately, most Americans consume foods high in cholesterol which can result in elevated blood cholesterol levels. Cholesterol travels through the

refrigerator, or quickly using a microwave oven, rather than leaving it out on the countertop. Buy a refrigerator thermometer to ensure storage temperatures are 40 degrees or below. Proper cooking also helps prevent food poisoning, since most food poisoning bacteria are killed at temperatures between 165 degrees and 212 degrees. A meat thermometer is an essential tool to ensure meat or poultry has reached a high enough temperature in its center. It is also important to thoroughly reheat leftovers before serving. While reheating, remember not to test foods until hot. Don’t use a crockpot for reheating. Crockpots don’t get hot enough fast enough. Meat and poultry products are the most susceptible to food poisoning bacteria, such as salmonella, > and contamination can happen any place from the farm to the food processing plant to the kitchen. With some common sense about proper storage and proper cooking, food poisoning is a problem which can be avoided.

blood in two forms. Low-density lipoproteins, or LDLs, are known to encourage the buildup of cholesterol in the body, earning them a “bad” billing. Highdensity lipoproteins, or HDLs, are the “good” cholesterol because they carry away cholesterol from the arteries and tissues. Ideally, the level of LDLs would not exceed the level of HDLs. But many factors must be State police host seminar on child abuse The Indiana State Police and the Indiana Department of Public Welfare/Social Services Division, recently hosted a three-day training seminar to promote consistency in child abuse and child neglect investigations. “The training was planned and executed through cooperative efforts between the two agencies,” said Sue Stanis, director of Child Welfare/Social Services Division. Designed to clarify roles and responsibilities in investigations, the training helped to develop skills related to investigating reports and interviewing children. “The results of the training were favorable as participants reacted positively and interacted well,” said Larry D. Furnas, superintendent of the Indiana State Police. “Creating standards in child abuse and neglect investigations is what we’re striving for and this training does just that,” said Furnas. Stanis said the training was the first step in an ongoing, cooperative effort. Indiana law requires all agencies legally responsible for investigation of child abuse and child neglect reports to cooperate and coordinate investigative efforts.

taken into consideration before embarking on a new lowcholesterol diet. Consult your physician because your age, sex, diet and family history are all considerations. How High Is Too High? According to the previously cited survey, the risk of heart disease rises sharply when cholesterol leve’s exceed 200 milligrams per deciliter of blood serum. The sb.dy also revealed that three out of four doctors recommended dietary changes only for those individuals whose cholesterol levels exceeded 240 milligrams pr deciliter of blood serum. Recognizing the growing danger posed by high cholesterol levels, the American Heart Association revised its dietary guidelines. Among the association’s new recommendations: • Eat less fat, no more than 30 percent of a person’s daily caloric consumption should come ir the form of fat. Saturated fats, which are found in animal meats, coconut oils, cocoa butter and many hydrogenated shortenings should not exceed 10 percent of the daily caloric intake. • Eat less cholesterol-rich foods. Daily consumption should be under 100 milligram per 1,000 calories, and should not exceed 300 milligrams per day. Since one egg yolk contains 270 milligrams of cholesterol, it is easy to see how many Americans are exceeding these recommended levels. These additional dietary guidelines which can aid in lowering cholesterol levels include: • To decrease your total saturated fat consumption, try decreasing your overall meat intake. Try eating more poultry, fish and dried beans in place of red meat. Avoid luncheon meats, frankfurters, bacon and sausages which are loaded with fat. Avoid frying; bake, broil, roast or boil instead. When you do use fat, use the polyunsaturated variety such as sunflower or com oil. • Consume only enough calories to achieve and maintain

competition has existed during the past several years to see who could be the first to plant oats, and usually Maurice Beer was first.

desirable weight. Since fat is the most concentrated source of calories, cutting back on fat will help you cut back on calories. Regular exercise will not only help you burn calories, but it may also help reduce your risk of heart disease. • Include more fiber in your diet. Different types of fiber have varying health benefits so it is wise to eat a variety of fiber-rich foods. The fiber in fruits, oats and legumes is especially effective in lowering blood cholesterol levels. • Avoid fast-food restaurants which use beef fat to cook French tries and other menu items. Getting Started When changing your eating habits, go slowly. Trying to change everything at once is just setting yourself up for failure. First assess your present eating habits by asking yourself questions such as: “How many times a week do I eat red meat?” “What kind of milk do I drink?” Then select one goal to work on. For example, cut down on the size of your meat portions, or eat red meat only three times a week, or switch to a polyunsaturated margarine to use on your toast. Another goal might be to switch from whole milk to two percent milk or skim milk.
