Show NATION The Salt Lake Tribune Friday July 29 1994 0 Eating Fish May Keep Smokers From Catching Lung Diseases Researchers Warn Against 'A Fish a Day Keeps Doctor Away' Mentality By Tom Majeski ' KNIGHT-RIDDE- NEWS SERVICE Eating fish may protect smokers from developing chronic lung diseases such as emphysema and bronchitis researchers at the University of Minnesota say In a study published in Wednesday's New England Journal of Medicine researchers at the university and elsewhere found that smokers and former smokers who ate 212 or more servings of fish a week had about half the risk of developing chronic lung disease as those who ate little or no fish The study's lead author emphatically cautioned that he does not condone smoking on the basis of his research Nor does he recommend even that smokers start eating more fish no relationship has been proved "My best recommendation to people who smoke is to quit today for those who haven't started don't" said Eyal Shahar an assistant professor of epidemiology in the University of Minneso ta's School of Public Health cancer and cerebrovascular disease During 1992 it claimed nearly 1500 Minnesotans In the study researchers measured the lung function and fish consumption of 8960 current and former smokers who are part of a much larger ongoing study that is examining the relationship between diet and heart disease Minnesotans who are participating in the heart study live in the northwestern suburbs of Minneapolis Shahar said he came up with the idea of investigating the possible connection between fish consumption and lung function after But the work does provide a better understanding of how the lungs' reaction to smoking can lead to chronic lung disease and it could someday help in finding better ways to treat it Shahar said "Additional work must be done Then there may be enough room for intervention for those who for whatever reason continue to ct cause-and-effe- smoke" According to the Minnesota Health Department chronic obstructive lung disease is the cause of death in the state behind heart disease fourth-leadin- reading studies that show fish oils help control other inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis Other research shows that the fatty acids in fish oils become part of the membrane in white blood cells and somehow inhibit their inflammatory response he said At the same time other research shows that cigarette smoke triggers lung tissue to produce inflammatory agents as a mechanism Over time Shahar said the repeated production of these secretions causes lung damage "We put the two together and if that is the case then it was natural to assume that people who eat more fish oils develop less chronic lung disease" he said g Utah's Governor Finds an Ally in iitig:dital Buy Guy Coates THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW ORLEANS — The governors of Utah and Nebraska are calling for a summit of the na- tion's state legislators to help the states grab back power usurped over decades by the federal government At the core of their discontent is the federal government's penchant for requiring various tasks of the states without providing the money to pay for those requirements and without taking into consideration the vast differences in the states said Nebraska Gov Ben Nelson "Some are downright ridiculous" Nelson told lawmakers on Thursday at the National Council on State Legislatures For example all states must test drinking water to detect pesticides used by farmers who grow pineapples said Nelson "I know that's important in Hawaii but we don't have a pineapple crop in Nebraska We "We're a rural state cannot afford to test for toxic chemicals in waters that don't have toxics" Gov Mike Leavitt of Utah said the nation's governors need help from the legislators in a summit to help "restore the balance of power" The checks and balances were agreed to over 200 years ago by the founding fathers but have deteriorated in the last 60 years said Leavitt The states cannot turn to Congress for restoration of a balance he said "Water will run uphill first" he said The states must gather in a summit to develop a plan for a massive conference to find a middle ground that 75 percent of the states can ultimately agree on Leavitt said With a mandate of 75 percent state officials can go to Washington and demand a change he said If Congress turns down the states "that would set off a debate of significant proportion like the one more than 200 years ago" said Leavitt referring to the debate in Philadelphia that led to the scrapping of the Articles of Confederation They were replaced by the Constitution "The people are with us on this one" he said warning that three things could kill the movement: If the debate turns into one specific issue such as abortion or gun control if the debate becomes partisan if the debate turns into one of personality of an individual or single group Officials of the national conference said they already have appointed a task force to work with the governors S0 VODY Russia A -- 2“'A1' ' t to Register To Win A !law Jeep In Our Gram' ExperienceThat's BEST ItThat's This brand new 1995
