Baby fat
By 2050, it is planned that 1 in 6 young people will be obesity. It works at 360 million children and adolescents with a body mass index of 30 or more.
The additional circumference and weight will not be distributed evenly. Half of the young people in the world will live in two regions: North Africa and the Middle East and Latin America and the Caribbean.
The United States already has a problem of substantial obesity in young people, with around 1 in 5 children and adolescents living with the disease.
Knowledge corpus
Humans, gorillas, chimpanzees and koalas are the only animals to have fingerprints specific to each individual, but other animals have means to distinguish themselves. Individual cats and dogs, for example, have unique mustaches. Zebras have distinct striped arrangements, and spotted leopards and dolphins wear singular patterns of spots.
Get me that. Stat!
Heat puffs are caused by special chemical messengers in the brain that send signals to blood vessels to rinse the skin, causing sweating. About 10% of women will have more than seven hot flashes per day during menopause.

Stories for the waiting room
Only 201 of more than 21,000 students accepted in medical schools across the country last year were native. The low figures have long been a concern, but the last figure represents a 22% drop in Aboriginal students in America or Alaska seeking to become doctors.

Reflect
Beef tif is a soft, soft and white solid resembling shortening or vegetable butter that is made by eliminating, simmering and clarifying the fatty fabric that surrounds the organs of ruminating animals, generally cows but also buffaloes, bison, sheep, goats, deer and yaks.
It is used for roasting, sautéuse, barbecue and thickening of stews, but also to season the cast iron and as a traditional ingredient in soap and candles. The Knundoux is another form of animal fat rendered, but it derives from the adipose tissue of the pigs.
Best medication
When I was a child, we were so poor that when my little brother broke his arm, we had to take him to the airport for radiographs.
Observation
“The condoms are not safe. My friend wore one and was hit by a bus.”

Medical history
This week in 1862, the first pasteurization test was completed by Louis Pasteur and Claude Bernard. They opened long-term pots of blood and dog urine, which had been heated above 160 degrees. They have noted any observable disintegration or fermentation.
Among the first practical application of pasteurization included beer. The process killed harmful bacteria and allowed beer to be shipped long distances without refrigeration.
SUM BODY
Eight notable fears that you don’t really need to worry:
1. Shark attack. The chances are 1 in 4,332,817 to die per shark in your life.
2. Be hit by an asteroid. The chances are 1 in 1,600,000.
3. Contract a brain -eating amibe. Chances: 1 in 34,000,000 in the United States
4. crash on an airplane. Chances: 1 out of 13.7 million passengers.
5. Strike by lightning. Chances are less than 1 in 1,000,000 in a given year.
6. TO SUPPLY IN THE MOVER SAND. Good luck even finds them, and in reality, the moving sands are quite dense and it is relatively easy to escape by “swimming” slowly.
7. Take an elevator in free fall. With modern security measures, almost zero.
8. Be buried alive. Near zero, but not zero, which always seems disturbing.
Medical myths
Hair and nails do not continue to push after death. On the contrary, as the body dehydrates, the skin around hair and nails retracts, causing the appearance of increased length or greater importance. Think of the narrowed heads.
