Healthcare- Improving health

How to improve health?

Caring for your physical health through proper diet and nutrition.

Whether meal preparation is for yourself or your family, focus on making smart, healthy meals.

Make an effort to have more home-cooked meals. This can help encourage healthy eating. Also, it promotes more family time.
Let your kids help plan what to eat. Kids love to help make meals and snacks.
Keep healthy snacks on hand to help kids make good choices. Have more fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Have fewer chips and sweets.
Teach kids to eat when they’re hungry, not when they’re bored, sad, or angry. Respect their ability to know when they feel full.
Breakfast helps jump-start the day. It provides fuel for an active lifestyle and gives you and your child the energy to think faster and more clearly.
Balance. Balance what you eat to meet your need for nutrition and enjoyment.
Variety. Enjoy all foods from important food groups (fruits, vegetables, lean sources of protein, low-fat dairy, and whole grains).
Moderation. Focus on feeling comfortable instead of being too full after you eat. Use moderation when choosing less nutritious foods.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean.
