Peopîe who have stopped eat- ing coetro ihdairy and mneat fats because they fear that the cholesterol wili clog their ar- t ,ismy be running more, not less, riskt of developing heart disease. After ninie years of research, Dr. Edwiard Hl. Ahrens Jr. of tlie- Rockefeller Institute told thie As- sociation of Amierican Phyýsicians, meeting in Atlantic City veenl that a diet rich in sugars and starhes(earohyrates) but low in fats raises the level of fats in the blood, These bloed fats are futrmed b-y the chemnical brea- down. of carbohydrates. Thea y are net cholestereil but triglycer- ides -- thie main constituent of body fat, Some medical r7esearch- or, nciuding Dr. Ahrens, won- der if the- triglycerides may, not be at least asimotn as chol- estolin developing thick artpry Until niow, nmost scientists had amssumed thaýt a low-fat diet meant a low-fat content in the biood. 1)r.
