T
he Oakland County Trans Fat
Awareness and Reduction
Group has created a survey
that will be distributed by the Oakland
County Health Department to more
than 4,000 area restaurants.
"Cardiovascular Disease is the num-
ber-one killer in Oakland County," said
Commissioner Marcia Gershenson, D-
Beverly Hills, a member of the Trans
Fat Awareness Group. "Our goal is for
restaurants to provide a greater vari-
ety of healthier food choices on their
menus."
The surveys will be used to help the
Trans Fat Reduction Group assist par-
ticipating restaurants in identifying
healthy and Trans Fat free food choic-
es for consumers. These choices will
be highlighted at each establishment
and recognized on restaurants menus
with a special gold heart designation.
Restaurants that want to modify
their menus to create healthier food
options will be given the opportunity,
for a minimum fee, to have recipes
analyzed by the Detroit-based Henry
Ford Health Systems. Data collected
from the surveys will be analyzed and
only restaurants meeting the healthy
and Trans Fat free criteria will be
eligible to receive the "gold heart" des-
ignation.
The Oakland County Trans Fat
Awareness and Reductions Group
consists of the Oakland County Health
Department, the Oakland County
Board of Commissioners, the Oakland
County Intermediate Schools District,
Henry Ford Health Systems, Big Rock
Steak and Chop House representing
area restaurants, dieticians and health
educators. ❑

iving a stroke victim
minocycline — a common
antibiotic used to treat acne
and other skin infections — within
24 hours of a stroke significantly
reduces the brain damage caused to
the patient, according to researchers
at Wolfson Medical Center in Holon,
Israel.
Dr. Yair Lempel and colleagues,
who published their discovery in the
journal Neurology, said it was a break-
through, as the antibiotic is widely
used and its safety record is known.
However, more research is needed to
determine the exact dose that has the
optimal effect on stroke patients and

focus on "Family Caregiving 101"
— Everything you need to know
about your loved one, but didn't
know whom or what to ask."
Set at Temple Israel in West
when to give it.
Lempel, who is chairman of neu-
rology at the hospital, said that the
critical "window" after a stroke — in
which oxygen-rich blood is prevented
from reaching brain tissue — is the
first three hours. This is when damage
is most significant.
Minocycline hydrochloride, also
known as minocycline, is a member of
the broad-spectrum tetracycline anti-
biotics and has a broader spectrum
than the other members.
It is a bacteriostatic antibiotic with a
long half-life.
Minocycline was originally discov-
ered by Lederle Laboratories.
