Dietary fat has long been blamed for causing obesity, but experts
now say high-fat, low carb diets such as the Paleo,
Atkins and ketogenic plans beat low-fat diets for weight loss
because eating fat can make you skinny. Watermelon can be substituted with Cantaloupe, Peaches, Mango,
Strawberries or pineapple. Both fruit and veggies contain a
number of vitamins.
Experts on raising children believe that poor behavior while flying can be caused by ear
pressure. If your kid finds that he or she is excited by the study of
the solar system, there’s no room for that in the classroom once the class has moved on. If you are a busy home school family, you may wonder how
to exercise and home school.
