The Michigan Daily - Friday, September 23, 1994 - 7 Jprofessor says keep eating your *vegetables By CRAIG SULLIVAN For the Daily Even for college students on the run and far away from home, Dr. Cheryl Rock says it's important to always eat your vegetables. Rock, an assistant professor in the Human Nutrition program, lec- tured at the Whole Foods Market on East Stadium Boulevard on every- thing from mono-saturated fats to cancer-reducing foods. One common misconception Rock noted is the connection between breast cancer and dietary fat. "The link be- tween fat and colon cancer is a fairly strong one, but with breast cancer it's still uncertain." And as she explained, people who eat high-fat diets often eat very few vegetables. Humans need a considerable amount of fat in their diets. "You have to have about 20 percent of your calorie intake come from fat in order to absorb many of the important nu- trients which your body needs." Rock explained the basic fat groups - saturated fats, mono-un- saturated fats and poly-unsaturated fats. The key difference between the three types of fat is their chemical stability. "Saturated fats and poly-unsatur- ated fats are more likely to chemi- cally change and make the tissue more susceptible for cancer change." Oils from many nuts - like pea- nuts, walnuts, avocados and olive oil - are among the healthier mono- unsaturated fats. "They're less likely to make your cholesterol go up; in fact they may actually lower it, and they are also less likely to promote cancer if they get into the tissue." Some vegetables can reduce the risk of breast cancer. "Crugiferous vegetables, such as cauliflower, broccoli, brussle sprouts and cabbage, contain an active com- pound called Indole," Rock said. "This compound stimulates an enzyme that causes your body to convert estrogen into anti-estrogen." And as she noted, "breast cancer is a type of cancer that's promoted by estrogen." Unfortunately, Rock says, supple- ments are not the same as organic fruits and vegetables. They are lim- ited in the amount of important nutri- ents that they supply. "Supplements are only part of the game and often the people who are taking them are the people who are the least likely to need them," she said. In addition to being inferior to organic fruits, Rock said supplements are more alien to human bodies that have had billions of years to adapt and cope with high and low doses of vari- ous foods. Even during college days, Christian groups keep faith - I Be a part of the organization that brought Dennis Miller, Betty Shabazz, Spike Lee, Girbaud, Soul Asylum, and Daryl Gates to the University of Michigan. BE A COMMITTEE MEMBER for the Largest Student-Run Organization on Campus, the University Activities Cener UAC Mass Meeting Dates: Religious organizations find campus good place for Involvement, recruitment By JOSH WHITE Daily Staff Reporter Signs and pamphlets from various Christian groups at the University cover residence halls, posting boards and walls all over campus. Each one advertises differentmeet- ings, study groups and fellowship. Leaders of these groups say they feel that as religious groups, it is neces- to be a presence on campus. "It is so easy for students to go to college and just let religion go for a few years," said Lora Fallon, a mem- ber ofthe Orthodox Christian Fellow- ship. "Some people go through their childhoods going to Sunday school and when they come here they feel they don't want to continue it or feel that there is no way that they can ntinue it. W "We have to reach out to those students and keep them involved and interested in their religion," she said. "We have to provide a place for the students who want to stay active to keep connected with their religion and interact with others who have the same goal." Other nondenominational groups try to spread Christianity to people rho may not have considered it prior to coming to school, and to get those students involved. "Our goal on campus is to show students that they have the opportu- nity to begin a relationship with Jesus Christ and to grow with that relation- ship," said Keith Longcore, a mem- ber of the Campus Crusade for Christ. "We want to get people to know that they can have a meaningful relation- ship with God." Longcore said that through Bible study, meetings, discussions and other activities, the Christian groups here try to connect with students. "This is a group in which we can make students feel welcome while at such a large place as Michigan," he said. "We have over 100 members now, and we reach out to indefinite others through handouts and by talk- ing to them. We want people to know that we are here. "College is a place where students want to change the world, there are people here who are willing to fight for what they believe in," Longcore said. "It is a good place to get people, before they are settled down with a job and a family, to see what it is that they believe in and how what they believe in can change their life. "It is a very good place to raise people up and to spread the news." Paul Champoux, adviser to the International Fellowship Christian group, said that not all groups aim at those students who may be trying to move away from religion. "Most students in our group are older, such as graduate students and visiting scholars," Champoux said. "Or they are international students who come from places where religion is not as strongly emphasized. "Many of these students are curi- ous about religion and interested in learning whatever we can teach them." Champoux added that the nonde- nominational group offers discus- sions, meetings, activities and tries to be available to help students with their needs, whether they be religious or otherwise. "We offer Christian fellowship for those people who desire it," he said. "We also try to help people out with their everyday concerns and prob- lems, if at all possible." Recruitment is not as high on the International Fellowship's list as it may be with other groups that fre- quently display Diag banners and ac- tively pursue membership. "We are achieving our goals with the students that we meet and that come to us," Champoux said. "There is only a small percentage of interna- tional students here and we only meet some of those students. When they come to us, we try to help." The Christian groups all work in the same direction under a group called Christians United, Longcore said. But, he said, each group has its own agenda and own specific goals. "While the programs and focus that each group has is different, we are all working on a parallel level," he said. "All the groups vary in member- ship, participation and goals, but we are all trying to promote Christian participation and education." Students and faculty who are interested in learning about these or other Christian groups on campus may call MSA at 763-3241.
