Colleagues use microaggressions against woman

DEAR HARRIETTE: I am concerned about how my co-worker is being treated by our colleagues. She is a new hire and is constantly being labeled as 'sassy' and 'aggressive' behind her back. The thing is, I have never witnessed this behavior from her. She seems nice enough — and far from aggressive.

In the past few days, we've seen a number of political analysts come to a momentous conclusion. Actually, two momentous conclusions. The first is that it is unlikely anyone can catch former President Donald Trump in the race for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. The second is that it is entirely possible Trump, having won the GOP nomination, could go on to win the general election and become President Trump again.

Dear Doctors: I'm a 97-year-old woman. Sometimes my blood pressure drops, and I faint. It lasts just a few seconds, because as soon as I'm prone, I wake up. I don't have any cardiac issues, and there's no pain. It's just a sudden funny feeling, then I'm out. What might be causing this?

Niece’s college-hopping worries relative

DEAR HARRIETTE: My niece is enrolled in her third college in three years, and I am nervous that she is wasting her time and money. She started off at a school in Texas playing soccer.

High levels of HDL, lower risk of heart disease

Hello, dear readers, and welcome to a bonus letters column. We're working our way through a bonanza of mail and will continue to respond to as many of your notes and emails as possible. — We'll begin with a thank you to the many — so many! — of you who wrote in response to a column on time-restricted eating.

LDL contributes to the buildup of fatty debris in the arteries. This causes the vessels to become narrow, which increases the risk of atherosclerosis. The 'good' cholesterol is HDL, or highdensity lipoprotein. It absorbs cholesterol in the blood and delivers it to the liver for disposal. High levels of HDL can play a role in lowering the risk of heart disease and stroke.
