By Dr. Tom Wells After a brief absence this column is resuming, and for the first few weeks a series of articles will be written regarding a subject we are all familiar Recent stories in the news media have dealt with subjects ranging from fast-food franchises frying their food in animal shortening to the FDA crackdown on food labeling, especially in the meat industry.

During the following weeks current, factual information will be provided to the following questions: How do you read a food label? Does "97 percent fat free" mean there is only 3 percent fat? Are poly-unsaturated fats (oils) healthier than saturated fats? Is it possible to lose weight on a fat diet? How low is too low in regard to fat? Aren't some fats essential in our diets? What effect does fat have on certain health paramenters such as weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, Food Labels: On many food packages now a food label is evident. These labels provide information on the caloric content, the weight in grams of protein, carbohydrate, and fat, and the percentage of certain essential nutrients vitamins and minerals. For a person who is trying to monitor fat intake, the label can be misleading. For example, the following information is taken from a peanut butter food label: portion size: 2 TBS. calories: 200 cal.

protein: 9 grams carbohydrate: 6 grams. fat: 16 grams. At first glance this looks like a food with about 50 percent fat when compared to protein and carbohydrate (16 to 15 g), but the key is that the total calories are presented as calories while the protein, carbohydrate, and fat are presented in grams. Why? It is very easy to present the protein, fat and carbohydrates as calories also, but most food labels do not. We can do this ourselves by following this simple formula.

Each gram of protein and carbohydrate is equal to 4 calories, but each gram of fat is equal to 9 calories. Now, let's look at the peanut butter label presented again: portion size: 2 TBS. calories: 200 cal. protein: 36 cal. (9 4 carbohydrate: 24 cal.

(6 4 fat: 144 cal. (16 9 Presented in this fashion it is very obvious that peanut butter is a very high fat food (72 percent fat to be exact, equal 72 percent). So, if you have been trying to cut down on the fat in your diet, try to read the food labels and use the grams to calories conversion formula. This can help you keep within whatever guidelines for fat intake you have established for yourself.

Ur Gtonw AFTER MODEST '85 CAMPAIGN Oilers' Rozier Ready For Season SAN AttGELO, Texas (AP) Houston running back Mike Rozier couldn't understand the Oilers' concern about burnout last season. The team worried that Rozier. who jumped from the United States Football League, would become overworked after playing a spring-summer season in the USFL before signing with the Oilers for the 1985 campaign. Consequently, Rozier carried a modest 133 times for 462 yards and caught only nine passes. But Rozier wishes he had been allowed to be more active, and he is eager to make up for lost time in 1986.

"I felt good last year and couldn't wait to get here," Rozier said. "I'd had enough rest and I wanted to play but they were afraid I'd burn out so they didn't use me that much." Rozier shouldn't have similar complaints at the end of the 1986 season. Coach Jerry Glanville has placed a premium on improving the Oilers' rushing attack, one of the worst in the NFL last season. And Glanville has chosen Rozier and running mate Larry Moriarty as the primary sources for the.team's attack. The Oilers also have third round draft choice Allen Pinkett of Notre Dame, Butch Woolfolk, Stan Edwards battling for playing time.

Moriarty wants to gain 1,000 yards and Rozier certainly wants to increase his production. "I feel there will be enough plays for all of us," Rozier said. "Our objective is going to be to win, no who carries the ball the most and who gets the most yards." Although Rozier is more accustomed to an I-formation attack, he says he likes the Glanville's new approach. "With the big guys we've got in our offensive line, it's easier to just go straight ahead," Rozier said. "I look forward to the start of the season, just to see what happens.

Rozier doesn't want anyone suggesting he will replace Earl Campbell, a three-time NFL rushing champion for the Oilers before he was to New Orleans. "I don't play under anybody's shadow, Earl Campbell's or anybody else's," Rozier said. "He's playing in New Orleans and I wish him -well. I'm not here to fill Earl's shoes." Rozier ended his career at Nebraska in 1984 after gaining 4,780 yards and scoring 49 touchdowns for the Cornhuskers. He signed with the Maulers and moved on to Jacksonville when the Pittsburgh team folded.

He suffered through a knee injury at Pittsburgh but gained 1,361 yards at Jacksonville. If the USFL had been more stable, Rozier might still be in Florida, he said. "If I knew they'd be playing, I'd still be in Jacksonville," he said. "I liked the town and the people. But I like Houston and the people there too and it's a business.

"I had to take care of my family and look to the future. I have nothing against the USFL. It was good to me. It's still football and you wear shoulder pads and hit people." The Oilers offensive Tine has been weakened by he holdout of starting tackle Harvey Salem, who has demanded to be traded. Rozier won't criticize Salem for his holdout.

"He's just doing business," Rozier said. "Football players only have a certain amount of time in this game. You can't play for free. You can't just get beat up for nothing." Rozier, who signed a four-year contract with the Oilers, says he is just nappy to have found a home after playing for four teams in the past two seasons. "rm tired of press conferences and holding up another jersey," he said.

Giants Win War, But Lose To Falcons ATLANTA (AP) The New York Giants won the yardage battle, but lost the war. "Overall, we didn't do too well," said Giants Coach Bill Parcells after a 31-24 defeat by the Falcons in the NFL exhibition opener for both teams Wednesday night. "The first groups on offense and. defense were all right, but it was obvious we didn't have much depth." Parcells' club amassed 473 yards on offense to only 179 for the Falcons, but committed six turnovers in losing their first preseason game after seven consecutive victories, including five last year. Parcells had to be pleased with his No.

1 quarterback, though. Phil Simms was sharp in the opener, hitting on 8 of 10 passes for 105 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
