Nuts For Health
Nuts For Health(PUN =D)
Nuts. Who hates nuts? They go perfectly with anything. Now we know that they can help with many health problems! A group of scientists took a large group of 1,200 people and gave them a normal diet, just with some nuts. A year later, the people who were taken for the test, had lost weight, had healthy blood pressure, and were more energetic. This proves that all people should eat more nuts. But, there is a down side. The nuts you know are the salty kind, which have the healthy stuff, but would hurt your body with too much salt. And the un-salty nuts are not really that yummyful. So if you want to be healthy, EAT UNSALTTED NUTS!

HEARTS FOR SALE
Hearts For Sale
A group of scientists from all of Europe invented a new heart that is almost exactly the same as a normal, healthy heart. But this idea is not new. The scientists have been planning this for over 15 years, but only now they’ve got it working. With this prototype, they are going to try and save 20,000 patients around Europe as a test for the heart. Since donors are so short, this is a great time for the new heart. Heart Foundation said: Peter Weissburg of the British Heart Foundation says, "This is the latest attempt to engineer an artificial heart that will do the heart's job effectively without any dangerous side effects.” However, the heart does have a flaw: its battery can only last 16 hours. Charging the battery means putting a cable inside the human body every time the battery dies which is 21 times in two weeks and over 500 times a year. And charging isn’t the most comfortable thing in the world, having a cable go into your “heart”. But this is only a prototype; the beginning to the complete heart.

Special: Breakfast Is Dying!
Special: Breakfast Is Dying!
The bee population is quickly dying out. But that doesn’t only raise the price of your honey. Sure, losing honey doesn’t seem that bad but that’s only the start. Think of a good breakfast; orange juice, maybe some honey tea, toast, vegetables, maybe cereal, and coffee. But most of all these things will be gone soon. Orange juices need pollen, and without it, oranges would die. Of course you couldn’t have honey tea. Plants for your vegetables would die. And even meat would be harder to come by. If animals eat pollen needing plants, and there is no pollen, they’d starve to death. And if you like rotting, dead animal meat, good for you! And cows make milk, so if there is no pollination and no food for the cows, that means no cows which means no milk! And coffee, the coffee beans would be scarce and the price for coffee would skyrocket. And croissants would not have the almond goodness because almonds would be gone. And this is real! From 2007 to 2008, 30% of Europe’s bee population died out. Now you know how important bees are to the world and its entire population.
