Greater Barrie Cham be of Commerce thinks it is un fair of the federal government to jump on Christmas spending as an example of poor restraint on the part of Canadians Youve got to consider that

annual $430000 oper attack says Hollywood Thanksgiving said Mr Holly wood And the prime minister himself said it would take year before the restraints had any visible effect For the govern ment to expect the public to cut back spending so quickly is unjustified Mr Hollywoods comments Were sparked by statement by CM Drury minister of public works and of science and tech nology criticizing

nipeg that mere is little hope for economic stability unless gr eater restraint is exercised He did not lay the entire blame on consumers but said one of the strongest inflationary pressures stems from Canadians demands for more than the economy can possibly produce Mr Hollywood felt that per haps next Christmas the govern ment could expect Canadians to cut back on spending but Mr Drurys harsnness at this time was unfair It all goes back to earlier messages weve sent to the gov ernment he 5a=ltWe support the principle of rcstrnint but without government lead ership Canadians arcnt

developed diet and ex ercise program that it believes can virtually eliminate heart disease The cam now undergoing further screntlfic testing in Cali fornia already has produced startling results in number of ill Minna dramatic The most was vanced cardiovascul disease could barely walk 30 yards when she Man tlfis procram 339 Now at the age of 87 she runs mile every day and proudly displays four gold med als she wonin onemile and halfmile eventsin the Senior Olympics held in Irvine Calif in 1974 and 1975 The programs developers two doctors and two medical re searcherssay that theirs is the first successful reversal of hu man heart disease lhat does not use drugs or surgery Their claimsbased on find ings of an initial test sample of 38 patientswere revealed in scientific papers presented late at your to profean medi cal groups subsequent interim reports and in telephone conversations However the scientists stress that these are preliminary find lugs and must be verified by further testingby themselves and by other indepeth re searchers With this aim the four have begun yearlong testing pro gram in Santa Barbara Calif in which 1000 patients with se vere heart diseasemst candi

with no added vitamins or mineralsis designed to re duce cholesterol in the body the prime cause of most forms of cardiovascular disease Nathan Pritikin coordinator of the research project says controlling cholesterol levels in the blood is the key to com bating heart disease and most of its related ailmentsangina chest pains due to lack of oxy gen reaching the heart hyper tension thigh blood pressure and train in was and legs due to lack of Ang reaching the limbs Pritikin said in an that the body produces suf ficient cholesterol on its own and eating too much animal fats or refined carbohydrates causes it to overproduce The resultant abundance of cholesterol in the blood he said tends to cause the oxygencar rying red cells to stick to gether resulting in two dan gerous situations First because the cells are stuck together they are not able to assimilate oxygen and distribute it WWW Ill interview body as they normally would Second the stuck cells lend to pile up in smaller blood ves slcs clogging them and further depriving parts of the body of lifegiving oxygen The researchers say that re sulls of their initial perimcnton 38 cardiovascular patients at the Veterans Admiu istraiion Hospital in Long Beach Califshow that their diet with regular exercise drastically reduces cholesterol levels as measured in blood samples and physical symp toms both as perceived by the patient and measured by in struments Most of the subjects could not walk more than few hundred yards without experiencing pain and other symptoms Many were unable to hold jobs be cause of their poor physical condition they said After six months all of those who faithfully followed the diet and performed the prescribed exercisesusually just regular but gradually extended periods of Wiringshowed marked im provoment Some showed al most gourmets reversal The diet is similar to those of score of societies throughout the world that are virtually free of heart disease It severely limits the intake of animal this and proteins and depends great deal on unrefined or nat ural carbohydrates It contains mostly whole grains fruits and vegetables legumes and tubers Pritikjn said The important thing is to eat foods as grownno added fats and no refined carbohy drates such as sugar and other sweets 25 J1
