M c C a rro n said. " T h e im p licatio n s, in terms o f health care, are sub stan tial. This opens some very im p o rtan t issues that need to be resolved.” i ill] Baking Mix Dr. M cCarron’s study population was composed of 46 individuals who were identified as hypertensive and a control group o f 44 normotensive volunteers. Random recalls o f the subjects* diets for the previous 24 hours were evaluated by means o f a com puter-facilitated dietary analy sis program developed at the O H SU School o f Dentistry. 1*1 y t V j 3 • I Krusteaz Buttermilk Mix 40 Ounce Box Full Flavored Lean Blade Cut Pork Steaks The results showed that calcium consumption— most commonly ac quired from dairy products— was significantly higher in the no rm o tensive control group than in the group composed o f hypertensive in dividuals. Further, only eight o f the 46 hypertensive subjects reported consum ption o f m ore than one gram of calcium per day while 18 of the 44 normotensive subjects con sumed more than one gram , D r. McCarron said.

M cC arron. His study does not dis pute the fact that hypertensive per sons should lower th e ir in take o f salt. But, he said, there is no real proof that persons who are not hy pertensive should place salt any higher on their list o f worries than obesity, genetic predisposition or calcium deficiency.

Although hypertension in some societies appears to be associated with the level o f sodium in the diet, there are other cultures that have a rem arkably low prevalence o f hy pertension in spite o f high sodium intake.” In support o f his research, D r. M c C a rro n has noted that A m e ri cans have not changed the level o f their salt consum ption in the past 60 years but they are consuming less calcium. Also, D r. M cC arro n ’s ex periments with laboratory animals have shown that the level o f dietary calcium “ is an im portant factor in determining what happens to labor atory animals that have high blood pressure. Adding extra calcium to the anim al’ s diets reverses the hy pertension." D r. M c C a rro n ’s research is sup ported by grants from the American Heart Association, the National In stitutes o f H e a lth , the N a tio n a l Dairy Council and several pharma ceutical companies. 2 cups (8 o n ) shredded Kraft sharp natural Cheddar cheese 1 cup green onion slices 1 802 bottle Kraft thousand island dressing I 8 or bag tortilla chips, broken Faberge Shampoo foil or Conditioner Your Choice 15 oz.
