Co Belles 'Editor's note: The follow ing article, "Red Meat and Health." by Heather Smith Thomas, is reprinted from the January, 1983 "Nautilis Magazine." The following is part II of the article.) Red Meat and Health" by Heather Smith Thomas has been an eye opener for many of the CowBelles. I have writ ten about her article once and would very much like to con tinue. Several studies have been conducted at various univer sities, studies in which some people were put on high cholesterol diets, and results have shown no significant buildup of serum cholesterol levels in the people eating large amounts of choleserol rich foods. Most people have the ability to handle extra cholesterol in the diet. The conclusions that are merging in the scientific world are that diet is not a significant factor in heart disease and that cholesterol lowering diets have not prevented heart dis ease deaths. Research emphasis is now shifting to Identify the diffe rences between people in how their bodies handle, transport and dispose of cholesterol and other fatty substances which the boyd itself produces a study of lipid metabolism and the roles of high density and low density lipoproteins. An interaction among stress, exercise, heredity and other factors might enter into the picture. For instance, women, slim people, non-smokers, moderate drinkers and jog gers have more high-density lipoproteins HDL. which is a beneficial factor in the trans porting and disposing of ex cess cholesterol ) than do men, obese people, smokers, non drinkers and sedentary people. This latter group has more heart attacks. Many researchers are con cluding that physical fitness and non smoking are far more important than diet in preven ting heart disease. Dr. George Mann, a Vanderbilt Univer sity scientist well known for his research on diet health relationships, points out var ious populations around the world who live on diets that the American Heart Associa tion would call "dangerous" because of the high level of animal fats consumed, but who have no cholesterol prob lems and no heart attacks. One difference is that these feopItf are more physically active than the average American. 'In Dr. Mann's words. "The hypothesis that saturated fats and cholesterol cause coronary heart disease a proposal raised in 1950 on shaky evidence has been repeatedly tested and found wrong." The old theory has been pretty well laid to rest by the scientific world, but the gen eral public along with food faddists and some pseudo-nutritionists are still worried about consuming too many animal fats. As a rule, Ameri cans need to watch their weight, not their cholesterol intake. We're consuming too many total calories. Over the long haul, this can be much more detrimental to health than our consumption of ani mal fats. inaeea. dv maligning ani rn.!l products and cutting them out or reducing the amounts we use. we may be doing ourselves more harn than good. The polyunsatura ted fats and oils we have substituted for animal prod ucts contain chemically altered bonds called trans fatty acids, and recent re search has shown that these unnatural fatty acids affect the function of cell branes. allowing causing Bfpnfs easier pene tration through cell walls. Substituting processed vege table fats for natural animal fats in the diet may subject a person to an unusually high dose of a cancer-related sub stance. A University of Mary land study indicated that if there is any relationship at all between dietary fat and can cer it is processed vegetable fat and that processed vege table fat should be more care fully investigated. Research at Pennsylvania State Univer sity, the University of Kansas, Purdue University, the Uni versity of California-Davis and elsewhere has shown that polyunsaturates may be toxic and could impair growth, pro duce tumors and speed up cell deterioration. By substituting processed vegetable fats for natural animal fat, we may he kidding ourselves. 0 VOTE YES Morrow County School District Budget May 17, 1983 Paid for by the Morrow Co.
