                                                       Smoking in Public Space

               In 2020, it is going to held Olympics in Tokyo, and people in Japan have to solve some problem to succeed it. One of these problem is smoking, and we are discussing smoking area. According to “Efforts to stop passive smoking”, government’s plan to limit to smoke in public space is opposed by Liberal Democratic Party because they insists if this plan pass, small establishments will not work. For example, in my country, most restaurant distinguish between smoking area and non-smoking area. However, small restaurant, such as Japanese-style pubs called Izakaya, which we can drink and eat in, don’t have distinction, and they can’t afford to set it up because some of them run it personally.

              In my country, the rate of smoker fell to a record low 18.2 percent in 2015, and smokers are minority. Therefore, many people argue risk of smoking. According to same article, the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry reported that 15,000 people die in Japan every year caused by passive smoking, including illness from smoking. In addition, WHO encourage countries to protect people from passive smoking, and 49 countries enforce a law that is to prohibit people from smoking in public space, including school and restaurant. However, only Japan has no penalty of smoking in public space. Therefore, some people ask for enforcing a law of smoking.

              By the way, how will we be influenced by smoking? We already know smoking is bad for our health, but recently many people said secondhand smoke is more harmful for health. Secondhand smoke is both the smoke from burning cigarette and the smoke from smoker, that is to say it is harmful even for non-smoker. According to “Secondhand Smoke is Toxic”, ten thousand people in America died or had serious illness because of secondhand smoke. In fact, secondhand smoke could lead to asthma in children who had not have any symptoms.

              I think smoking in public space should be banned by a law, because smoker is now minority, and we have some problem about smoke. For example, smoking could cause some illness of lung or blood vessel. Moreover, as I wrote before, secondhand smoke could influenced people who are surrounded by smoker. Some people said people who are surrounded by smoker have more risk than smoker. Additionally, recently tobacco tax has increased, and more people try to stop smoking. Therefore, I thought government should prohibit people from smoking in public. Thank you for reading.

Sugar addiction - Jinju

<Sugar Addiction>                                                    Jinju Eom

                               

Do you like sweet things? I like chocolates especially with Hazelnut. It is common sense that sugar is really addictive. There was an experiment that comparing the mice which addicted to sugar and cocaine. They chose not cocaine but sugar. Some results said that sugar has 8 times addictive than cocaine. There also exists a term, ‘sugar addiction’. Have you heard of this word?

Sugar addiction is the symptom that someone who cannot control the amount of sugary foods has. They also take sweet things frequently. If you want to take sweet things when you are stressed, you might be addicted to sugar. There is some lists to check whether you are addicted to sugar or not.

1. You have to eat sweet things when you stressed.

2. Even if you are full, you have to eat sweet things.

3. You cannot concentrate on something without sweets.

4. You are finding much sweeter things than sweets you take now.

5. You feel nervous without sweets.

Overeating sugar is dangerous because this causes bad results. First, it is highly related to the obesity. If you take much glucose from sugar, our body tries to save the rest of glucose, the energy so they are all accumulated in the form of fats. Second, according to saving energy process, after eating sugary things, our body releases lots of insulin to lower the blood sugar. Then one day this system could be out of work and we call it as diabetes. Third, it causes mental problem which is called ‘sugar blues’. When you are lack of sugar, you will feel depressed, and after take sugar you will feel better. If this cycle is rapidly repeated, then that can be harmful for our mental health. Fourth, sugar attacks our skin components such as collagen and elastin so it promotes aging of skin. Finally, sugar makes our immune system weaker and disturbs our body absorbing vitamins and minerals.

To prevent sugar addiction, you can alter the source of sweetness from white sugar to fruit sugar. Fruit sugar is not completely refined so our digestive system uses energy to break it. Also, you can release your stress by using another method such as exercising instead of finding sugar.  

Last year, WHO recommended introducing a special tax called ‘Sugar tax’. Some parts of United States and Europe decided to introduce that tax system and this is also quite controversial topic in Korea. No matter what they accept new tax system or not, this shows that it is important to reduce the amount of sugar we take.

About Women's Soccer Game (Ryosuke Okumura)

                                                                 About women’s soccer game

     I have watched a women’s soccer game in University of California Riverside soccer field on September 22 because I heard that a lot of students cheer own university’s sports game in America. So I decided to try cheering my university”s sports game. Also, I have chance to watch sports game for free because my professor gave me a soccer game’s ticket. At the same time, I applied for a player’s escort in begging of game. As a result, I was given the role of a player’s escort and I could cheer a women’s soccer game. Therefore, I am going to explain about this game and my impression about it.

     First of all, I am going to explain about a begging of game. This game was University of California Riverside’s home game. Also, the opponent was Seattle University. I heard that Seattle University was more stronger than my university. So I predicted this game was tough game. In begging of game, I was going to talk with a player to release her tension. However, I could not talk much with player because I felt that a player’s nervousness at that time. But I fulfilled the role of a player’s escort. Also, I was proud of this experience because it was precious things. Moreover, most students could not experience this one.

     Second of all, I am going to explain about women’s soccer game content. In the game, we used megaphones or vuvuzela to cheer my university. Also, we are a lot of different countries students who cheer them. At that time, I was surprised at Argentinean’s cheering style in soccer game because it was sense of unity. Therefore, I felt that national characters was so different through each cheering style. It was interesting for me to see nationality because I was learned totally different national character. Probably, cheering style connects to game’s content.

     To sum up, I have experienced precious things which I cheered my university sports team. Also, I was given the role of a player’s escort. In the game, I learned a lot of things because each country’s cheering style express each country’s national character. Moreover, I felt that how important about this game by player’s nervousness. Therefore, I was glad that I have experienced these things in women’s soccer game. Next time, if I have chance to cheer my university’s sports game, I will cheer them again. 

effect of being married-Yurika

              Recently, we have studied about benefits of nutrition for our health. We have made decisions what to eat and how to eat by based on our beliefs. Now, I wonder that only food can influence our health? Definitely, the answer is no. There are many ways to be influenced our health. I read some article about our health, and I found some interesting article. In the article, “Married People”, says that if you have married, you are healthier than single people. Whether or not you have married can influence our health. There are some reasons why it can influence our health.

              First, being married decrease your stress level. Some experts have experimented that how people who have married feel stress in one day. The result was that the people who have married feel less stress than single people. This investigation was not the first time to experiment about the relationship between being married to our health, but it is the only one to compare between married people and single people. Unlike the people who are single, the result was that married people less likely to being heart disease than single people. In addition, I read some Japanese article about how influenced our health by being married. In the article, the author says that being married influence especially for the male because most of the male less likely to go to the hospital by themselves. Unless the wife requires going to the hospital to husband, the husband won’t go to the hospital. So, being married simply provides the opportunity to go to the hospital.

              In the other hands, some people say that being married is more stressful than being single. They think that it can bring the problem of money. According to my friend, he says that my wife always complains about my salary, it is stressful and annoying. Also, he says that I don’t have time to do my hobby.  In Japanese, there is some word that explains about being married, “Marrying is the cemetery of life”. Of cause, it depends on the person. Indeed, there is the fact that some married people have felt stress their partners' complaints.

              In my opinion, I think that being married can influence our health in the good way and bad way. Also, I think that if there are a person who shares a meal with me, it can be happy. Also, I think that being happy is more likely to influence our health!!

Samah- Food Appearance or Food Flavor

Food Appearance or Food Flavor

I would not buy a particular food if the picture of it was not attractive because I think the food is attractive if its appearance is delicious, neat, and orderly. There are several reasons behind my opinion which I will explain in this brief essay.

One of the most significant reasons is that I think the appearance of food is more important than flavor of food in the first glance ,which is before and when you begin to make an order. To give an example, if the food looks like yummy, the customer will buy it directly and try it. The eyes eat before the mouth. I maintain that we are human, and we always attract to foods that seem tasty and neat in its look. As a result, eyes will eat before our hands reach to food to taste it. In my view, there are many countries that care more for the appearance of food such as Italia and France; consequently, I would like to try Italian and French foods. I personally think that who want to eat food which appear bad. In addition, if the dish of food is appetizing, I will eat more and more. From my viewpoint, the process is only to send a positive message to our mind to say that the food is delicious where our mind send a good message to us when our eyes see the yummy food based on its appearance and its smell to convince us that this food is delicious. After which, we will eat subconsciously- subconsciously means that someone eats without awareness, and someone does not perceived at the level of conscious. Therefore, we believe that the food is nice. Moreover, I argue that we have a chance to try everything of foods based upon its look. If the food is  delicious, we will repeat the experiment. On the contrary, when the food is not good even though its appearance is good, we will stop going to this restaurant, and we will have a trial. It does not matter the experiment is good or bad in view of the fact that we will have conversations with others to tell them about our trial, so maybe we can talk a lot, practice our English language, and make friends.

To sum up, to me, I assert that it is very important that food seems yummy, delicious, and neat to attract me to try it , on account of the idea that, in my opinion, the appearance of food is the first step to test it.

Science and Food - Lizzy

Healthy eating is required to live long and healthy. Research for healthy food have gone along constantly and science is being used for that research. However, is science always right or not? The answer is “both.” Science allows us to discover new about food and treat ourselves with healthier and more delicious foods. Nevertheless, the misconceptions about food due to science such as fat, eggs, etc., disturbs us in eating good food. However, I think that the possibility of misrepresentation and the harm caused by the misuse of science may be harmful, but science can make food more abundant.

 For example, ‘Foodtech’ is a word combined food and technology. Foodtech is new area that combines IT technology with our eating habits, such as cooking, searching for restaurants, and delivering food. Foodtech is a new one that includes almost everything in the food industry, from analyzing the supply of ingredients or creating new foodstuffs to start-up companies with food-themed services, Industry. Though not well known to us, the start-up companies that create new food are more than we think. If you think about food and science together, pigments, food additives and other bad things come up first, but science is being used to create more environmentally friendly and healthy food ingredients. For example, 'Hampton Creek Food' makes eggs using vegetable ingredients. In fact, cookies and muffins made with this egg are said that they have the same flavor as cookies made with real eggs. A similar example is ‘Beyond Meat’, which uses beans to make chicken and beef. In fact, meat products using soybeans have been popular many times before, but ‘Beyond Meat’ is difficult to distinguish flavor or texture from actual meat. The reason for trying vegetable food ingredients is to reduce damage to human beings, nature and everyone, as the livestock industry grows. If we can produce the ingredients from the livestock industry in the factory, it is as environmentally friendly as it is good for the human body, and it is also possible to supply cheaper meat. In addition, it is the significance of food technology that it has become a hope that it will be possible to taste similar to actual meat according to technological advancement. In the past, if you simply made meat using soy protein, you are now trying to find a way to taste similar ingredients by analyzing the material at a molecular level using specific science.

There are many processes in which food is digested and absorbed in our bodies from the preparation of materials. Full-fledged research into food and human beings has only recently begun. As many secrets as yet to be revealed, we expect that human food tables will be enriched in the future due to various foods, dishes, microorganisms, and health.

Influence of Science on Nutrition

              We have to eat food every day to live, and we are interested in diet or nutrition. In fact, I often heard many information about food, and trend food has been changing. When I go to super market, I can see some comments of scientists or experts of food. Moreover, some TV programs tell us what we should eat to stay healthy. These information are good for us to recognize nutrition, but sometimes people are confused about healthy food. I think it has some reasons why people are confused.

              Firstly, scientific information about food is always changing. According to “Eating Well: Less Science, More Common Sense” in the textbook, as an example, eggs were shown to connect some dangerous disease in the past time, but resent research shows that eggs are good for us, so we should eat egg every day. Take another example, some scientists express that milk is good for health, and suggest that people should drink it. On the other hand, some experts say that there are some negative effects, and this issue has been discussed by many people in the world for many years. Therefore, we cannot decide which opinion we should believe.

              Secondly, we tend to be influenced by media easily. As technology generation, we can get a lot of information and share them quickly. According to “Anatomy of Nutrition Trend” in the text book, most people depends on media, which are magazine, books, to know about nutrition and healthy, and frequently, it make trend food. For example, in Japan, when I was junior high school student, one of the TV program explained that natto is good for us to reduce the weight. As soon as the information shared, it was difficult to see natto at the supermarket because many people bought it at the same time. After that, some TV show introduced other food is good for diet, and we couldn’t follow every information. Therefore, we are also confused because information came to us quickly.

              Lastly, we tend to get information exaggeratedly or incorrectly. Take natto diet example, most people who tried it had eaten only natto each meal, but in fact, natto diet is eating one pack natto in a day. Sometimes we share incorrect information, and as a result we can’t stay healthy. Therefore, we should get correct information from doctor or expert not through media.

              In conclusion, influence of science on food sometimes make us confused because science result is always changing, we can get and share incorrect information quickly. Therefore, I think we shouldn’t accept other people’s opinion, and we should find own diet style.

Influence of Science on Nutrition- Jinju

<Influence of Science on Nutrition> 

Jinju Eom

 Some people think that science has bad effects on nutrition. In fact, there still remain a lot of unknown substances that cannot be explained all action of nutrients by using scientific knowledge. Also in some aspects, the nutrition science is ambiguous because the results may depend on individual person. Nevertheless, I think science has influenced on nutrition positively.

Not only do in the laboratory, in order to research various kinds of foods we need standards for it. We cannot simply compare the foods each other by color, flavor and so on. There have been used not calculated remedies but the folk remedies that have come from ancestors such as the combinations of foods and the food that we eat when we are sick. Thanks to the development of analyzing technology, we are able to identify not only the amount of nutrients but the kind of substance which really works in the foods.

In the article ‘Defining personalized nutrition’ by BASF, they explain how to moderate the nutrition individually. People tend to choose their diets according to their personal taste. Moreover, their metabolisms are different from each other so the same food might have different effects on them. By using scientific analysis, this can help people to make personalized decision for what they eat and compare with fresh ingredient.

Even so the same food has different effects on the individuals, they can adjust their dietary list from the number based data. The number data do not have information of allergic substances.  People can just avoid that kind of ingredient and alternate with another that has similar nutrition information instead. For example, you can choose turkey meat or pork meat as protein source instead of chicken if you have allergy to chicken.

The nutrition research suggests us to balance what we eat. If you want to make smart decision, it is recommended not to follow just as so-called experts said. The effect of science in nutrition can be both positive and negative depending on the usage of information.

 I think the result of the nutrition science can affect both positively and negatively depending on the data user. Therefore, once we try to use information critically, then we can make reasonable decision. I believe it is the matter of taking information selectively in this argument. We can just collect facts that we need and apply to our real lives.

Is Food Science Harmful or helpful?

       Nowadays people care more about what they eat especially when the companies started to add food additives in every kind of food, and the way of create food has been changed. We always ask ourselves if these changes are good or harmful? No one deny that there is connection between science and the nutrition. This link has influenced what we eat in many ways. The question is how could science influence on nutrition? There are advantages and disadvantages of the influenced of science on nutrition.

            The Positive Effects of Science on Nutrition:

      Science has improved what we eat in different ways. First, many kind of foods have been created without some important contents that could cause allergy for some people. For example, People how have allergy of Gluten used to not eat bread, and people how have allergy of lactose used to not drink milk. However, food scientists have created new Technique that could allow to produce Gluten free bread and lactose free milk, so people can eat any kind of foods without warry about the allergic reaction. Second, food scientists have created new type of milk that has all the nutrients that the baby requires, so the babies will get what they need to have by just drinking it. Also, we could find foods that has low-fat, more protein and vitamins even in chocolates because of science, so we will have the daily amount of vitamins and protein easily. Science food is very helpful to us, but does it have downsides?

The Negative Effects of Food Science:

     Food science has downsides that could affect our life negatively. First, food science provides us food labels, which mention all the ingredients that the item has. These food labels should be helpful, but they are more harmful than helpful because every company wants to sell their products, so they write the food labels of their products in confusing way that can mislead the people according to the article “Eating Well: Less science, more common sense”. Second, some food additives have side effects that could cause health problem in long term. For example, MSG, which use in many kind of foods as a flavor, could cause damage in the brain’s cells, which are known as neurons. Also, some researches show that there is a connection between eating food that has MSG, and having headaches and eye damage. Third, Because of food science, genetically modified food has been created.  GMOs is food whose genetic makeup has been modified. GMOs has many side effects such as causing food allergy, increasing toxicity and decreasing Nutritional Value, so many countries has banned it. Also, it has unknown side effects.

      In conclusion, food science has influence nutrition in both good and bad ways. We can get food that has low fat, more protein or more vitamins. Also, we can eat certain food without warry about allergic reaction. On the other hand, some kind of foods could have side effects that could cause health problems, so we should choose our food carefully to avoid the bad effects of them.

science on nutrition Yurika

              Can you imagine how you influenced science on nutrition to choose your food? When we hear from scientists that certain food is good, we follow simply this suggestion because we think scientists are experts so they might have more knowledge than we do. In the article, “Anatomy of a nutrition Trend”, the writer says that the media influenced a lot on our food. Unlike people who follow scientists comment, some people assume that the all we need is just eat what we want to because food trends are changing with time. When it comes to our healthy, we are always confused because we have different information each food. Is following what scientists say really important for our health?

              When it comes to our health, we consider carefully choosing what to eat. Then, we research what to eat and what to avoid. In the article, “Science for sale”, written by Patrick Mustain, the writer says that we are easy to follow health than common sense. When a big nutrition research is published like “avoid all of fat”, we follow the research, then we might stop eating food including fat. Although though it doesn’t mean that we should stop eating food including fat, it means that we should avoid extra fat. We should consume fat to live Healthily. Moreover, some scientists have a sponsorship with some company, so they can’t publish research which influences badly against the company’s products. Moreover, most young age people try poor diets. They limit their food to lose their weight in wrong way. When some diet experts say that you should avoid something if you want to lose your weight, they follow that, even though it is not in healthy ways because the experts use some scientific study to show it is right.

              For these reasons, I think that the science on nutrition influence not always us in right way, but we should keep looking new studies. It is important to think our belief and attitudes because the science on nutrition is changing on what is our belief and what we want to. Even though there is much information about nutrition, we have to choose on our belief and attitudes. Also, before you decide that this information is good, you should some research and compare to information which is challenging against the information you heard or saw. Also, don’t rely on only information which based on scientific logic, and don’t trust the product labels before you do some research.

abdulaziz 6 the influence of science in nutrition

Have you ever asked yourself there is different types of food? Did even though about the meaning of nutrition, and what is the connection between it and the science. First, nutrition is the process of providing or obtaining the food necessary for health and grow. Also, there is many sources for the nutrition. To give you an example, Carbohydrate, protein, fruits, vitamins, fats, vegetables, etc. however we can gather all the sources in which is call by healthy plate, and the healthy plate contain water, healthy oil, fruits, vegetables, healthy protein, and whole grains. However, the science came and changed everything, and what was good in the past it might be dangerous now. To give you a simple example the milk we drink is not fresh and healthy us it used to be for a number of reasons. First of all, the company add flavors to the milk they make to change the taste and to tantalize the children especially in the ads. Also, the farmers put the cows tighter in small spot, and when the bodies lay stress on they are going to excretion poison, so the farmer are going to give the cow antibiotics to stop the poison from speeding all over the body. Moreover, many fast food restaurants use portfolio of food items, which can lead to many diseases for example the cancer.

(http://www.peta.org/living/food/reasons-stop-drinking-milk/ ) number 8

               Those were some of the negative problems. On the other hand, there is many good things that the science help us to find it and change it like our habits and our lifestyle with eating. For example, because of the science now people can know what type of they need, and what they lack of food. Also, people can make a plan for themselves or they can ask nutrition export to help to find the best plan for their bodies by knowing what kind of food they lack of, and what they need to reduce. Moreover, science showed us that what we thought was bad for our health is actually very necessary for us. For example, fats, which both animals and plants use it to store energy is actually helps people by giving their bodies energy, and they also help to protect our organs and help by keeping our bodies warm.

               To sum up, people need to find out what their bodies need and they should take care of their health. However, people should read the information that the science told us about so they can be provided with the information to keep themselves healthier.

The Danger of Deforestation

         The population of humans is increasing day after day rapidly especially nowadays. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7 billion in 2012. If the global population is still increasing at the same rate, the population will reach 9.6 billion by mid-2050, so that will cause many problems. One of these problem is deforestation.

What is Deforestation?

     Deforestation is the action or process of clearing the trees and transforming a forest into cleared land. The main cause of this problem is the unnormal increase of population. How could that cause deforestation? While the population of humans is increasing, more food and more lands are needed. First, to provide food, the forests are transformed into farms by cutting down the trees and throwing the animals which live there out of the forests or even killing them, so that would provide an enormous space to make farms which can produce a large amount of food that could feed the current population satisfactorily. Second, to provide lands, people ruin the forests by changing them into cities that could give enough lands for the current population. The question is What are the consequences of these acts?

The consequences of deforestation:

        There are many problems that could occur when people continue to destroy the forests. First, forests remove approximately 20% of the amount of carbon dioxide, and provide oxygen instead. By continuing to destroy the forests, the amount of greenhouse gases will increase 20% that will contribute to cause global warming which would make our planet more heat according to Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. As a result, the amount of sea ice in the Arctic will continue to lose, so the cities that are near the ocean will be in risk. Second, forests provide habitats for many animals, so destroy forests will destroy animal’s homes as well. Many kind of animals will be in endangered list. Finally, many rare plants live in the forests as a home including Baobob trees which are one of the early trees in the world. All the plants will be cleared away when people destroy the forests. What should we do?

Solutions to Deforestation:

      Ending deforestation is our best chance to conserve wildlife, so how can we end it? First, governments should set lows that could protect the forests by making cut down the trees illegal, and limiting the size that the farmers can use to plant their plants. Second, the media should encourage the people to protect the forests by demonstrating the downsides of destroying the forests.

            In conclusion, forests are important part of this planet. If people continue to destroy them, our planet will be in risk in many ways, so we need to protect them and encourage people to do it as well. We are part of it, so let’s save it. 

       

Influence of Science on Nutrition (Ryosuke Okumura)

                                                             How Influence of Science on Nutrition

     Recently there has been debate about modern problems of various kinds. Also, science on nutrition is one of the biggest problem in our lives because people mention how science on nutrition will affect in our lives. Some people think science on nutrition is able to give some merits for our lives. But other think it has no positive impact in there. From in my view, science on nutrition gives some advantages in our lives. 

     First of all, food labels contribute to help our health because scientists or researcher   are able to take some data which need some nutritions for our bodies by labelling most foods. According to the article, Your Food Labels Are Getting a Makeover, FDA Announces, “ The new labels will prioritise what American need more, such as potassium and Vitamin D. Studies show that Americans don’t get enough of either in their diets.” Also, if scientists researches some data which need for our bodies, people are able to make a new product to compensate for our missing nutrition.Therefore, some data attached to food is helping to stay healthy.  

     Second of all, science on nutrition give us some knowledge to keep our healthy. For example, with the expansion of mass media in our lives, people have more opportunities to acquire information of science on nutrition the before. Eventually, they will be able to maintain their health themselves by learning about science on nutrition. Therefore, science on nutrition will make a lot of people healthier.

     On the other hand, food products made by scientific development harm our bodies because most products have big disadvantages in exchange for small advantages. According to the article, Supplementation to Lower Blood Sugar, “there is evidence that certain dietary supplements can decrease blood sugar, many come with potential dangers. Aside from the obvious risk of hypoglycaemia, other considerations include interactions, liver problems and gastrointestinal  issues.” In addition, there is a possibility that people are endangering more than before by these developing products. Therefore, food products will not give people to benefits only. 

     In conclusion, I explain about how influence of science on nutrition. Also, in my opinion, science on nutrition is able to give us some advantages to keep our health  because people are able to acquire some knowledge by food labels and mass media. However, there is a possibility that food products cause some disease. Therefore, people will need to mention to research about science on nutrition in the future.

abdulaziz5 Ubisoft

Ubisoft is a video game company, so the company business is to create videp games for the players. The company is very famous with their games. For example, assassin creed, for honor, and far cry. For honor is a new video game developed by ubisoft, and game released was 2/14/2017. This game is talk about 3 clans, and those clans are samurai, Vikings, and knight. Those clans fight against each other to survive, and they are all looking for new life, and place to increase their numbers. My favorite clan is samurai, because the samurais are fast with swords and speed movement, even if they have low health and defense. The second clan I like is, the knights, because of their heavy attacks and their attack speed with the swords. Also their defense is not high or low but it’s medium. However, their speed is not good, so if your health is very low and you have a duel against attack speed character you are 100% dead. The third clan which I hate play with it is the Vikings. Vikings are slow in their movement and their attack. That why many players don’t play with the Vikings. However, the Vikings has strong attack and a very high defense. There is 3 kind of matches. First duel which is 1 player vs 1 plaster or 2 player’s vs 2 players and the last team standing in 5 rounds is the winner. Second type is dominion, which is 4 player’s vs 4 players with a soldiers, and the rule is first team get 1000 points after the team get the 1000 points they have to kill the other team so they can win the match. To get points you have to take control over the zones and kill the enemy players or kill the soldiers. The 3rd type is death match which is 4 player’s vs 4 players, so it’s actually duel but here you can help your team mate against their enemies. Moreover, every day your team will take control over or lose a territory. That depends on how you play.
Second game I will talk about is assassin creed which is one the most famous game for ubisoft. In the game you can kill enemies help your team and climb house and assassinate the enemies with a jump from the houses. My favorite assassin creed is assassin creed black flag which is take place in the carbine sea, and you play as a wanted pirate. Also you have your crew and another ships assist you.

Influence of Science on Nutrition is Good

Have you ever thought of living healthy? It is time to consider seriously about this important issue to feel relieve, stay healthy, and grow accurately. The role of nutrition and the decisions about what we eat have a great impact on our health and quality of living without suffering from any diseases such as cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart problems, so as I see, the influence of science on nutrition has had good effects.

First of all, science has talked about all food ingredients that are important for us such as Vitamins and Proteins; and in contrast it has discussed all food ingredients which are harmful all the time or harmful if anyone eats too much like sugar; it takes us energy to do many things actively, but if we used to eat a lot of sugar, we might suffer from obesity or diabetes. In the research, " The Effects of Nutrition Knowledge on Food Label Use", in the internet, the writer mentions that nutrition data on food labels is an essential resource of nutrition knowledge, but in general, the customers do not realize that fact. Science has determined what people need for their health for being healthy, and it has determined also the amount that we needed. It means that science has affected on nutrition positively because If you know what your body need to be in a good condition and what components that your body need to reduce it, you can read labels of food products to make a decision to eat it or not. Everyone can eat what you need to build your health, body, and brain. For one thing, if vitamin E is limited in your body, you can find it by the label of food product; therefore, you can eat more to stay healthy in your life.

           In addition, according to the article, " Welcome to Nutrition Facts in the Food" , which is written on the internet, http://www.nutrition-and-you.com/ , the author states that many researches have illustrated that eating well in the early ages is better than eating healthy in the later ages. As a result, if parents have knowledge about nutrition, their children would be healthy even though we are live in unhealthy food era such as fast food and prepared food. The reason that stand behind eating well in early ages is that the body ,with all its parts including muscles, bones, cells ,and brain, is built  in childhood and adolescence, so if kids eat properly, they would grow healthy and live with disease-free in the remaining of their life.

           To sum up, I understand that science on nutrition sometimes make us confused because there are many contradictory findings. However, I cannot ignore the important role that science on nutrition do, so if we follow that rules, we would live longer, healthier, and happier.
