VITAMINS




Knowing What’s Worth Paying For in Vitamins
It is incredible to believe that many people use vitamins without a real necessity. In many cases people prefer to use vitamins which carry out the name of important marks.
It is important too that you talk to your doctor about what added vitamins or minerals you might require; you can ask for a blood test to learn what you might be lacking in order to save money.
The vitamins are important for our health in order that all functions in the body and not matter where the vitamins come from. You can get the vitamins in food and the natural sources for example if you have a good and balanced diet with all elements you don’t need to add more vitamins.
Sometimes we like to use vitamins that come from a known and famous laboratory or brand but we don’t know that all the vitamins are quality and has the same ingredients in that reason price may not mean quality because nobody can be sure that all the ingredients are in the correctly amount and the ingredients that you have to use have the real amount of vitamins.
Nowadays we can realize that many people in the world specially in US are using multivitamins but they don’t know that we can find all vitamins in the same food that we eat, all the necessities depend of many factors. And it is unnecessary to use vitamins if you have good food habits and do excercises.
I really liked this text because the information that I found in this article taken from the New York Times confirm my ideas that the vitamins are necessaries but if we don’t have any problem related of lacking, the consumed vitamins, could save money and avoiding the ingestion of unnecessary amount of vitamins.

THE WONDER YEARS



THE WONDER YEARS

I want to say the wonderful year is a good program, and when I was a little boy I used to watch. My brothers really liked it and they with their friends used to watch it.
The wonderful year is a story about a boy called Kevin Arnold who has to face the life through different steps and ways of the life.
This program started on air in 1988 and finished in 1993. the main character of The Wonder Years are Fred Savage as Kevin, Dan Lauria as Jack Arnold, Alley Mills as Norma Arnold, Olivia d Abo as Karen, Jason Harvey as Wayne Arnold, Dannica Mackellar as Winnie, Josh Saviano as Paul.
I really like to watch after many time this program because it reminds something about my childhood.
In this chapter Kevin Arnold is in the class, the teacher want to call Kevin to response something about specific questions. The time is very long and it is running slow on the clock and Kevin can not believe it, suddenly something happens, the Parent’s Kevin arrived to the school in order to visit him. The Kevin parents asked him how it was, but Kevin say that It was very good. For a good cake was Kevin invited by his Parents, they said the congratulations to Kevin but he know that he didn’t t do anything to response in the class about the driving license.
After all good time, Kevin in his bed couldn’t sleep and dream so he decided to catch the car without permission. He woke up and stood up in order to get in the car and to drive it. But something was wrong; he didn’t know how to drive.
This chapter is really good because it can teach us about something that happen in our life for example when we are child and we can not do something about our learning in any subject and our Parents or friends are expect to watch us in order to say us ¡congratulations¡ you did it¡
I hope you watch this chapter on You Tube

THE VALLEY OF THE SPIDERS

This story was really interesting because when I read the title I couldn’t imagine how the story was going to be.
First of all the title of the text is very attractive for young readers and dreamer readers, like me, I think the Valley of Spiders is like El Quixote adapted in a different context with different characters but the adventures that have to live The Master, the little white man and the captain that they were the main characters in this text.
The story starts with three people rounding a valley looking for some people who they want to find. They were very enthusiastic to get the place where they possibly could find the known people.
They were looking for the missing people but they weren’t secured that they were doing the well, because in the field there were many hills and the rocky mountains made it difficult to move very quickly.
The three people were riding in some white horses. They weren’t walking and riding four days without any food to eat just only a piece of meat.
Suddenly a weirdo animal was appearing in the sky, it was a big wild dog. This animal was in disposition to attack but fortunately disappear in the field. Later the three people continued the trip looking for their staffs and a big mass of spike were approaching to involve them. After that they could hear a jewelling from a wild pig.
And a group deer appeared too behind of them but they were lucky because many things that were appearearing couldn’t attack them in their traveling to look for the people.
Finally a web of spider was in the middle of the fild and made many troubles to them.
They couldn’t see perfectly the valley and the spider were in the direction of them.
The little man can escape from the spider s webs and he can to rest in a hidden rocky place.
The story mix many adventures and dangerous situation that the three people could to face, but they were not happy that these troubles were appearing in his challenge.
I like this story and I hope you can read with a good cup of coffee in beautiful night
