is a 52-year-old white female who had two documented
mycardial infarctions in February, 1957 and May,
1968, and a subsequent minor attack in December,
1969 followed by congestive heart failure in January,
1974. (All at St. Mary's Hospital, Brooklyn, N.Y.).
Other pertinent history was a total hysterectomy
in March 1971. She had anginal pain and shortness
of breath associated with excessive perspiration.
She also complained of pains in the legs. See
attached chart (A) for series of cholesterol and
triglyceride test results of same patient.
She was picked up because of her initial triglyceride
level being 650 mg% in May, 1975 and her cholesterol
level was 276 mg% April 23, 1975. August 16,
1974, she started to take one teaspoonful of
Royal Jelly twice a day up to October 6, 1975
(51 days). Just before the initiation of Royal
Jelly her triglyceride level was 440 mg%: during
the interim, her triglyceride level went down
to 204 mg% and 5 weeks later 193 mg%. (Normal
up to 200 mg%). After cessation of Royal Jelly
application, her triglyceride level elevated
to 344 mg% on October 10, 1974. (This blood
was post prandial specimen).
On December 2, 1974, her triglyceride level
was 325 mg% on the fasting blood. Because of
the recurrent abnormal changes, the second course
of similar amounts of Royal Jelly was given,
starting December 10, 1974 and ending December
27, 1974. At the conclusion of the second course,
her cholesterol level decreased to 217 mg% and
CLM laboratory's results of triglyceride was
315 mg%. (Normal is 150 mg%).
