Even though I know the foregoing is tongue-in-cheek, I think it's
fair to relate my own experience with saturated fat and cholesterol,
so all might learn from my mistake. My education began when I woke up
one morning with a cardiologist I hadn't met before asking me if I
knew where I was. A no-brainer, since nothing else looks like an ICU.
Seems a couple of blocked arteries in my heart led to a loss of
suction followed by collapse as I was getting off a bus. Very much
like Dr Zhivago except neither so dramatic nor so permanent. Right
after telling me how lucky I'd been (about 20:1 odds against
survival) Dr Homans gave me the first of several come-to-Jesus
lectures telling me to lose weight, start getting some serious
exercise and change the way I'd been eating for 20 years. It was all
quite simple--I'd know if I was doing it right every morning that I
didn't wake up dead. I lost the weight, dropped my blood pressure and
cholesterol and started some serious exercise and it worked. I'm in
better shape than I've been in 25 years. It was a very close-run
thing and could just as easily have gone the other way, if the
Hopkins cops hadn't been totally on the ball. Of course if you think
your widow might enjoy a singles cruise every year or so, keep
popping those cheeseburgers.
Read and heed.
