MEDIACOM STEPPING UP TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE ill Mediacom Cable TV began operating in Chowan and Perquimans Counties in February 19ci8. Though operating only a short period of time, Mediacom determined the need for improved reliability and expanded diversity in programming. As a result, Mediacom began a multimillion dollar upgrade to its cable system. . . ■ ■ ■ ■ __— “The new system features fiber optic technology which will deliver a more reliable, clearer picture, along with expanded programming abilities,” stated Kathy Rea, system Manager. “The project should be completed within the next three months. However, customers will begin to notice an immediate change with the new programming scheduled to launch in July. During the next three months, cable may be interrupted dur ing the day but should be restored by 6:00 p.m. Additionally, some disturbance to the right-of-way areas of property may occur, but will be restored by the end of the project. We want to thank our customers in advance for their patience during this upgrade project,” stated Rea. The new channel line-up is available for viewing on cable channel 19. •t Stay healthy...eat beans to your heart’s content Many of us, women in par ticular, are familiar with folate from news reports about the importance of folate for preg nant women. The fact that folate may help reduce the risk of certain birth defects by up to 50 percent is reason enough to applaud this B vitamin. How ever, what many people may not know is that folate can ben efit both men and women at all stages of life. Found in foods including dry beans, leafy green vegetables, and fruit, folate is essential for proper cell division and over all good health; plus, research has found that folate may help protect against heart disease and stroke. Dear to Your Heart Folate helps protect against heart disease by breaking down an amino acid called homocys teine. High levels of homocys teine in the blood, combined with inadequate amounts of folate in the diet, can triple the risk of heart attack. Insuffi cient folate levels in the diet may indirectly contribute to the risk of heart disese and stroke. Finding Folate Our bodies do not produce folate, so it's important to get it from the foods we eat. Dry beans are the best vegetable source of folate — one cup of cooked dry beans may contain as much as 366 micrograms (meg) of folate. The U.S. Pub lic Health Service recommends that all adults consume 400 meg of folate each day — about twice their average intake — so, eating just one serving of Turkey and Bean Salad with Apricot-Ginger Dressing beans can help most people reach their daily intake re quirement of folate. The term "dry beans" is used to include varieties of beans other than green beans and soybeans. Dry beans are avail able uncooked in sealed bags or pre-cooked in cans. "Beans are a bonus food for your heart," says registered dietitian Kim Galeaz. "Besides being packed with folate, beans are rich in soluble fiber, which can help reduce high choles terol levels. And beans provide other important nutrients like magnesium, calcium and B vi tamins necessary for overall good health." When It Comes To Getting Folate, Use Your Bean Fora delicious dish that gives a boost of folate to your diet, the Bean Education & Aware ness Network (BEAN) recom mends the following recipe from its collection.
