How to stay on the healthy side of food.

There are many problems that may be going on that we don't even know of. I will be informing you of one of those problems. This may be something that many people don't like to talk about or hear about but it is important. This is obesity in the United  States. 



So many people don't know that what they are eating is not healthy for them. It's not that being overweight is not good for you, it is that some people are overweight because the food they are eating is not good for them. When we go into grocery stores or just any food store in general, we always want the best looking foods like donuts, candy, and soda. These foods are not good for you and can make you very unhealthy. I am not trying to tell you what to eat, I am trying to inform you in what you should and should not eat. Now I too have a craving for not-healthy foods like donuts and lots of candy. It's totally ok to have some of it once in a while as a treat. Kids like me and you need sugar. 


 Some people don't have chose and have to buy the unhealthy foods because of the cheapness of it.They may not have as much money so they have to buy what they can. Most of the healthy food is expensive and too much for people to buy, which is why I think they should lower healthy food prices. I did some research on some foods that my mom buys on a food trip and I have pretty healthy foods everyday. I searched and the information said that for one organic apple it was  four dollars! I know that might not seem a lot but for some people who can't pay for a few apples or bread, Its expensive.


When you buy something in the store make sure to look at the labels to make sure it does not have high fractured corn syrup because that is not good for you in any amount. Corn Syrup is a food syrup made of cornstarch and so much sugar you would not believe it. Corn syrup is bad for you in all levels, as it can cause health issues and diabetes. You can have things that have just a little or maybe no corn syrup at all! My friends and I are lucky that our parents can buy us healthy foods and just food in general! You can have sugar and sweets as long as you cut down on the sweets and keep exercising. Have lots of fruit and veggies and make sure to have lots and lots of water throughout the day. And just make sure to stay healthy!!!

Everything You Need to Know About Dogs

 Did you ever wonder where dogs evolved from? Well Keep on reading to find out more information about dogs that you never knew. Dogs actually evolved from wolves as most of you probably knew. People originally used dogs for hunting and protection. Some people still use dogs as protection today such as Pitbulls and Doberman Pinschers. There are some really old breed dogs such as the Saluki the oldest breaded dog and the Chow Chow. Really funny name for a dog. When Dogs drool its because it helps with there digestion and when they eat! If you have ever seen the movie Beethoven you can tell he drool so much. Not many dogs drool like that because those dogs are very big and needs more saliva to digest food.


Dogs Also Dream! I actually did not know that but i realized that when my dog is sleeping i can see her moving and yelping. They dream about there day and what happens throughout their day. There is lots more you can know about dogs but this is the majority.Dogs have really good hearing and scent. They can here things humans can not even hear. There smell is stronger than humans by 70%!

Dogs have some odd things they do and one of those things are rolling in other animals poop! This was inherited by wolves to hide their scent from pray. They do this to there own and other animals poop.Even though dogs are sometimes gross they are mostly cute and cuddly. If you don't give your dog competition, attention or even more your dog will grow sad and even angry. They are like humans they want attention and to be loved.


Dogs should get adopted 8 weeks and older younger then that they should stay with their mother. When dogs were originally not breeded they were meat eaters and would travel in packs. They would travel in packs so pray would not come for them. Even though they were almost wolves. Bears would hunt them because they were not as strong as many wolfs.

Dogs LOVE being outside and they were born to be outside in the woods and exploring. I actually have a really big backyard and lots of woods for my dog to explore. It's good for dogs to get exercise and to get the sun on there body.


I hope with this information you can know more about dogs and when you see a little dog or puppy you can say that the dog is related to a wolf to confuse them. I hope you know that dogs are more interesting than you think.
