Health Tips

It is important to prevent diseases - either ones we get easily (likes colds and flu) and more serious illnesses (like heart disease and lung cancer).


There are ways you can prevent some of these diseases.

1. Wash your hands: washing your hands can prevent the spread of germs in the home. If you wash your hands while you are sick, even though you are washing your hands you will still help the spread of germs because the germs land on the handles and the towel.
2. Don't smoke: smoking can lead to lung cancer. Lung cancer is very dangerous.
3. Eat healthy foods: healthy foods can help clean out your system. If your system is not clean it may lead to a clogged intestine.
4. Eat pepper: in men, eating pepper can prevent prostate cancer. Please read this article for more information.

The Third Entry (About a Book About Animals)

I got a book from my grandmother. It is about animals. One of my favorite animals in the book is Horseshoe Crabs. One of my favorite sections in the book is World Explorer.

The Horseshoe Crab has 10 feet - two of the feet are used for cracking the shells of the animals on which it feeds.

One of my favorite sections in World Explorer (it is also my dad's favorite) is the Arctic Tundra. Another favorite is Yosemite National Park. On the back of the Yosemite National Park section is a picture of
Yosemite Valley.

This summer we are planning to visit
Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky.
