Overview

When people think of the deadliest diseases in the world, their minds probably jump to the fast-acting, incurable ones that grab headlines from time to time. But in fact, many of these types of diseases don’t rank in the top 10 causes of worldwide deaths. An estimated 56.4 million people Trusted Source passed away worldwide in 2015, and 68 percent of them were due to diseases that progressed slowly.

Perhaps even more surprising is that several of the deadliest diseases are partially preventable. Non-preventable factors include where a person lives, access to preventive care, and quality of healthcare. These all factor into risk. But there are still steps everyone can take to lower their risk.

Read on to see the top 10 diseases causing the most deaths worldwide, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) Trusted Source.

ABOUT RACISM

Presented by kleio sarri, B5

 

What is racism?

Racism takes many forms and can happen in many places. It includes prejudice, discrimination or hatred directed at someone because of their colour, ethnicity or national origin.

People often associate racism with acts of abuse or harassment. However, it doesn’t need to involve violent or intimidating behaviour. Take racial name-calling and jokes. Or consider situations when people may be excluded from groups or activities because of where they come from.

EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT DOG FOOD

28 τρόφιμα να μην ταΐζετε το σκυλί σας

Stop feeding your dog food without knowing how it could affect them. 

Σταματήστε τη σίτιση των σκύλων με τροφές χωρίς να γνωρίζετε πώς μπορεί να τους επηρεάσει.

Human Food Is Not Always Dog-Friendly

Το ανθρώπινο φαγητό δεν είναι πάντα φιλικό προς τα σκυλιά

Foods that are perfectly suitable for human consumption, as well as other animals, may be toxic and even poisonous to your dog, posing a serious threat to their health and well-being. Why? Because all animals have very different rates of metabolism. Metabolism is the process of breaking down food and turning it into energy. 

Please note that while we’re attempting to add every food we can find that is potentially unsafe for dogs, there are certain foods that we may miss, so don’t consider a food safe to feed to our dog just because it’s not on this list of foods bad for dogs.

Τα τρόφιμα που είναι απολύτως κατάλληλα για κατανάλωση από τον άνθρωπο, καθώς και άλλα ζώα, μπορεί να είναι τοξικά και ακόμη δηλητηριώδη για το σκυλί σας, θέτοντας σοβαρή απειλή για την υγεία και την ευημερία τους. Γιατί; Επειδή όλα τα ζώα έχουν πολύ διαφορετικούς ρυθμούς μεταβολισμού . Ο μεταβολισμός είναι η διαδικασία της διάσπασης της τροφής και της μετατροπής της σε ενέργεια. 

Παρακαλώ σημειώστε ότι ενώ προσπαθούμε να προσθέσουμε κάθε φαγητό που μπορούμε να διαπιστώσουμε ότι είναι δυνητικά μη ασφαλές για τα σκυλιά, υπάρχουν ορισμένα τρόφιμα που μπορεί να μας λείψουν, οπότε μην θεωρήσετε ένα τρόφιμο ασφαλές για να ταΐσετε το σκυλί μας μόνο και μόνο επειδή δεν είναι σε αυτό λίστα των τροφίμων άσχημα για σκύλους.

GREECE

15 Interesting Facts About Greece

                   Presented by Kleio Sarri, B5

1. Greece is often considered to be the world’s first democracy

The Athenian Democracy was a system dating back to the fifth century B.C. It was a system of direct democracy, where citizens with voting-rights voted directly on legislation and executive bills. However, participation at this point was not open to all residents. To vote, you had to be an adult and male citizen. So in other words, foreigners, women, and slaves had no votes.

EXERCISING

Presented by Maria Tsantouli, B4

A. How Does Exercise Help Me?

 1- Exercise increases the capacity of the lungs. The lungs in each inhalation get more air, and therefore more oxygen with less effort.

 2- It increases the capacity of the heart in various ways. The heart is also a muscle. The more trained he is, the more efficient he works. The working heart is not capable of responding to a tiring activity. The hardened heart in each pulse sends more blood to the body's tissues. So when we want to catch the bus, play on the beach, climb a ladder quickly, and generally, lose intense physical activity, our heart is ready to meet the demands. It sends more blood with each beat and beats at a much slower rate than the trainer. On the contrary, the hardened heart, in its attempt to respond, can work dangerously.

 3- The body is not only beautiful but also strong. It helps the musculoskeletal system. With exercise we get a better attitude. We are not bowing anymore nor are we leaning forward. Having a strong skeleton and muscles makes us faster and stronger. We can run in the park, jump away, climb the hillside, pick up a heavy object more easily. We are certainly becoming more resilient. By gaining all these benefits we gain more confidence in ourselves and in our abilities.

4- Exercise shields our health and protects us from epidemics and diseases.

 5- It helps to sleep better at night. We no longer suffer from insomnia.

6- Exercise has a better appetite and is easier to digest.

7- Exercising with a healthy lifestyle leads to longevity.
