Lack Of Essential Fats In The Diet Can Kill
Lack Of Essential Fats In The Diet Can Kill: "A lot of talk has been generated over the past several years about fats. Are they good? Bad? Should fats be eliminated from our diets altogether? While this was once a common notion, it is now widely understood that not all fats are created equal. There are ones to avoid (like trans-fats), and ones to embrace, like essential fatty acids.
Essential fatty acids, or EFA's for short, are exactly what their name implies: an essential part of every person's diet. Unfortunately, these so-called 'good fats' are usually the ones most lacking in most people's diets. Part of the problem lies within the fact that EFA's cannot be constructed within the body from other components. Instead, they must be consumed directly from foods which contain them. Herein lies another problem: many foods which are commonly found in North American diets do not contain significant amounts of EFA's." ...

Salty Water In...Fresh Water Out
Salty Water In...Fresh Water Out: "In many poor, third world countries, even having the resources to obtain electricity presents a problem. Due to the lack of logistics, as well as the finances even if all of the logistics were in place, alternate methods are necessary in order
to have the basics that those in more financially fortunate areas of the world have.
A recent development at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands is a basic windmill that operates a pump, in turn utilizing reverse osmosis to output fresh water from the salty seawater that is put in. Reverse osmosis is a process used to purify concentrated solutions (often water with high levels of dissolved salts) in which pressure is applied to the more concentrated (or contaminated) solution on one side of a semipermeable membrane. The result is the movement of solvent, but not solutes, from the more concentrated side to the more dilute side, thus separating clean solvent from the concentrated solution." ...

I Pulled A Fast One On My Obese Husband � Now He�s Skinny And Loving It!
I Pulled A Fast One On My Obese Husband - Now He's Skinny And Loving It!: "I really didn't mean to be devious. I was worried about his health and mine. I finally went cold turkey and gave up my two pack-a-day cigarette habit and put on 40 lbs. He weighed 241 lbs. and tried every diet in creation.

I'm usually not a nagging wife, but I knew this kind of eating couldn't be right. He would tell anyone who would listen how he was losing weight and I wouldn't leave him alone.
