New Diet and Heart Disease Link Explored in Studies
A set of global studies from Oslo, Bombay, Geneva, and other locations between 1965 and 1974 examines diet and heart disease. Findings suggest mixed results: unsaturated fats with cholesterol limits reduced new coronary events in one trial, while others found no clear link between animal fat, sugar, or serum cholesterol and disease risk. The Merck Forest Foundation is noted for supporting a conservation program.

Milk as Public Utility Vibe From Boston Globe
The Boston Globe quips that if milk ever becomes a public utility, a cow might become a holding company, playfully riffing on corporate language and everyday dairy life.
