Some known side effects of amino acids are the cause of dropped blood sugar levels that could result in surgery. Also, another side effect known for overtaking is fatigue as well as loss of coordination. This supplement should be used cautiously if you’re going to operate a vehicle. Amino acids may decrease the effectiveness of the levodopa. Also, amino acids interact with diabetes medicines. Meat, eggs, and dairy are a major way to get amino acids if you do not want to take this supplements. I don’t believe it’s practical. It does seem to have a lot of research backing its safety. As a matter of fact it may be one of the most researched supplements. It is not necessary as you can get it with foods in your fridge. Vegetarians may need to take supplements but if you eat meat regularly you shouldn’t need to take this supplement. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and are a key to your nutrition if taken correctly.

... First and foremost, I Miss Imkumsungla would like to express my sincere gratitude to our teacher Sir Moa and Miss Aien who was kind enough to lead and help us throughout the project. Secondly, I would like to share my deepest gratitude to the school authority and NBSE for being thoughtful in giving us this project, through which we experience and learned so much. Lastly, my word of thanks for all my fellow students, friends and relatives who have helped me throughout the project and giving me more idea. Imkumsungla Class-11 Rollno-27 Sec-A Introduction Animal husbandry benefits us in many ways. Rearing of livestock can be done by every household. It must be encourage among rural household. We must rear animal not only for red meat but also for the economic purpose for a household. They also help in raising the standards of a farmer. We can also define animal husbandry as a subject that can be studied, often in the college environment. Some people who raise animals may also take a class or two in animal husbandry to learn how to do certain things, like how to dock tails, make use of the newest technology to milk animals, or how to breed animals using artificial insemination techniques. From a scientific standpoint, specialists in animal husbandry may try to address specific problems occurring in large groups of animals. For...

...healthier than beef can be used to make chilies, tacos or turkey burgers for inexpensive dinners. Or you can go to the farmers’ market for things like Italian turkey sausage made by the Amish for your pasta meals also. You can pick up your fresh produce there too. But, you really can’t beat Trader Joe’s fresh fruit and vegetable prices, unless, they are on sale somewhere else. And, than it will only be a few cents more. So why run around? Eggs are pretty inexpensive and can be used for egg salad sandwiches and/ or omelets for a breakfast or a dinner meal. Lastly, all you need is some really tasty cheese for meal toppings and/or snacks such as cheddar, Greek, or parmesan, etc. Rice, pasta, beans and, bread are fillers, and cheaper than meat. Using this type of meal plan a family of three (depending on the ages, sex, and size can eat healthy and well at a cost of about...

...farms we buy our meat from treating animals humanely? Animal mistreatment is illegal and we can make a difference to put a stop to it. According to Ethical Farms “Some of the largest US factory farms refuse to uphold humane USDA and OSHA standards, having unsanitary, unhealthy conditions and animal rights violations. In 1958, the US government composed the Humane Slaughter Act that is not enforced” (Ethical Farms, 2010). There are 7 statutes in effect that comprise the Humane Slaughter Act. Included in these sections are Congress' statement that livestock must be slaughtered in a humane manner to prevent needless suffering, research methods on humane methods of slaughter, the non-applicability of these statutes to religious or ritual slaughter, and the investigation into the care of non-ambulatory livestock. There are farms that follow the Humane Slaughter Act in raising their livestock that we can purchase our food from, like Humane Farms for example. By aligning our consumerism with Restaurants and grocery store chains that purchase from humane farms we can make an impact. Also, supporting an Animal Rights group like The American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals(ASPCA) or The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals(PETA) can make a big difference. You can support them either monetarily or by volunteering your time in your local area. In Chapter 17 of the Omnivore’s Dilemma (The Ethics of Eating Animals), Pollan (2006), says that “Eating meat has become morally...

...My sister and I were the first ones to arrive at El Pueblito Patio located on 1423 Richmond Avenue Saturday morning around 11 a.m. Since we were so early we were lucky enough to be seated in one of the many white linen cabanas. This restaurant is known in Houston as a cultural, Latin American-Caribbean fusion. As we glanced over the menu, several delicious items popped up, such as redfish, salmon, trout and chicken often paired with a fruit relish, yellow rice and vegetables. The waiter brought us free appetizers, two bowls, one red salsa and the other a yellowish color salsa with some green specks. My sister took a bite out of the yellow salsa, I bit into the corn chips and red salsa. We were both surprised to find out that we enjoyed the tastes of the salsas which were uniquely different. However, we could not figure out what special ingredients were in the salsa but as soon as our waiter arrived we immediately determined the secret as to what the yellow in the salsa was and that was pineapple and a jalapeño blend which was the green specks in the salsa. Both were delicious and exotic. Being on a student budget, we decided the free appetizers were more than adequate for flavor and our budget. Next up was the entrées, we came across many options including both Tex-Mex and Caribbean dishes but ended up with two great choices; the Caribbean snapper which is a fresh bay snapper which is infused with El Pueblito Patio house sauce which came with beans, rice, fried plantains...

...methods allow manure to go back into the soil as fertilizer for the crops that will become the pigs’ feed (Foer 11). In addition the factory farms have caused an estimated $26 billion dollars in degradation to American land (Foer 12). Pork companies, lead by the Smithfield company which has had sales of $12 billion in 2007 (Foer 14), would say that there is not a problem with the way they produce pork, because it is what people want. The entire food industry is ultimately driven and determined by the decisions people make about what to eat and unless we make new choices the industry will have no reason to stop the growing trend away from traditional farming into the mass-production which has been encouraged by American’s decision to eat more meat than any other culture in history, while paying historically little for it (Foer 14). The problem with this argument is that just because people like to eat pork, they do not necessarily support companies like Smithfield. With factory farms now producing 95% of America’s pork, it is entirely possible that the average citizen who eats pork thinks there is something...

...(1) In the beginning of the case McGraw thinks he has "never encountered such a complex business challenge" as the one he currently faces. By the end of the case, after he has read the ideas listed in the four memos, McGraw can’t believe he ever thought the investment issue was "going to be a hard one." What changed the president’s perspective? What strategic decision-making process does McGraw pursue? In the first instance, McGraw thought that the problem in his Division was so complex and did not know what direction to take in his upcoming Strategic Plan presentation to his boss. After reading all the memos sent by his managers, he got many ideas on how to tackle the issue. The strategic decision making that he took was to carefully read the ideas conveyed in the four memos prepared by these managers, weigh the pros and cons of these ideas, and then put his conclusions together to formulate his strategic plan. (2) If McGraw chooses a strategic direction that favors only one department, what negative effects could this have on other departments? How can McGraw mitigate the damage? If McGraw would use a strategy that favours only one department, the brands of the other departments would lose. Sales for the other divisions would also decline probably causing a consequent collapse and closure of these divisions as suggested by Eric Stanger, VP on OM products. The foundation of the OM brand, for example was eroding rapidly due their attempt to underwrite the new line of LR trademarks...

...Final 1. In James Turner Johnson’s article ‘Threats, values and defense: does the defense of values by force remain a moral possibility?’ (60) he cites four justifications for war. What are they? From a pacifist’s point of view why are these reasons problematic? In this article the four justifications for going to war are: defense of the innocent, recovery of something wrongly taken, punishment of evil, and defense of aggression in progress. From a pacifist's point of view there are some major problems with these justifications for war. Each and every justification is met with its own singular problem. The defense against the innocent seems like it is justified but there arises two arguments against it. In a war more than just soldiers are killed. Other civilians will be killed and many of the soldiers don’t want to fight, they are just ordered too. That means we are killing innocent civilians and soldiers to protect some innocent. From a utilitarian view we must ask if this the death of the innocent will outweigh the death of the other innocent if we do or don’t go to war. Yet, deontologists would say that killing is bad and that needs to be punished because killing is wrong. So kill people to stop killing. For a pacifist that is just wrong. The other problem from defending the innocent is that violence is key in war and many times over we have been shown that violence is not always the best way. We should try and support people and ideas like Gandhi, to win with non-violence...

...CHAPTER 2 FACTORS AFFECTING FOODWAYS AND CULINARY PRACTICES INTRODUCTION Food culture is multi-faceted, influenced by a number of factors, of which the main ones are presented and briefly explained in this chapter. Examples are given for better understanding and appreciation of how a factor could affect the foodways of a population group or area. One factor may have more impact on bringing about changes than other factors. Each has varying degrees and extent of influences that makes cultural foods around the world interesting and challenging to the readers and culinary afficionados. Geographical Location The geographical location of a country determines the kind of climate it has throughout the year. Also, its neighboring countries and bodies of water (ocean or sea) influence the available food added to foods inherent in its culture. An example is the African continent: North African nations with coastal lines of the Mediterranean Sea have common foodways with Greeks, Italians and other nations that also get food sources from this sea. Another example is about countries in the tropical belt, having fruits that cannot grow in wintry areas of the world. Thus, what are exotic to the non-tropical countries are common and cheap in tropical countries. Conversely, grapes, berries, and different varieties of apples imported to the tropical countries are expensive. While climate is one of the factors in the study of geography, its impact on cultural foods is very significant...

...Oksana Pervushina ANT 2511 Questions Module 13 1. What information has been discovered regarding his diet and lifestyle? Ice and cold weather have done a great job of reserving the iceman so well that scientist were able to identify his age and last meals. Approximately he had two meals before his death, but both included grain, possibly in the form of herb bread, roots and fruits. First meal, possibly consumed in a mid-altitude, consisted of ibex meat and einkorn. Second meal before his death was red deer meat and fresh vegetables. It is unclear of the food was cooked, but researchers have discovered ash scruples possibly from cooking on fire. Also evidence, isotope lodged in teeth animal, shows that people in this part of Europe, Valle Isarco, survived by agriculture and keeping animals. But other researches have studies his knees and discovered evidence of wear and tear caused by daily running and hunting routine. Also, Otzi’s tools, cooper blade ax, iron arrows, a firestarter, a dagger, support the theory that iceman have had hunting lifestyle and perhaps he was a leader in his village because of all fine weapons. 2. Did Otzi have tattoo’s?? If so, how many and what might they represent culturally? Otzi’s body has 57 tattoos bluish-black color in the forms of lines and crosses made with charcoal that was rubbed in his skin. Other scientists propose that tattoos were made from fireplace soot and injected beneath the skin with a bone or wooden needle. Archeologists...

...Just the other day I went to a sit down restaurant and ordered chicken wings. Obviously there are laws protecting people from getting tainted food, but the source of this food was unknown to me and could of had something wrong with it. Luckily I am fine and I survived that meal, but the process of how that food got to my plate and how that animal was treated before it was slaughtered to become my food was unknown to me. Even though farm animals such as chickens, pigs, and cows are most likely going to be killed for food purposes, they are living things and do deserve to live a decent life before they become our food. The opposition might argue that there are too many people in this world who eat meat, so these means are necessary to feed all the people. But if the meat eating society were to look closely at how these animals were treated before becoming our food in most cases they would not see a very good life and even would be disgusted with the environments as well as the treatment of these animals. Due to this fact the way in which animals are treated before and while being slaughtered needs to be altered to a more humane way. In the past, animals were treated almost as part of the family, since they usually were the family’s only source of food or means of getting money. This is still...
