Preventing heart disease is a topic I think about all the time,given my family history of heart disease.So last summer,I travelled to Bolivia.The natives,called the Tsimane,were reported to have the healthiest hearts in the world.I wanted to learn what they could teach me about preventing heart disease.
Getting to the Tsimane wasn't easy.They lived in small family groups of about 60 people along river banks.We finally found one of the villages at sunset.That night,we set up our tents in the middle of the village.Thatched huts (茅草屋) surrounded us,with no electricity or modern conveniences.
I initially thought they mainly got their calories from meat.However,I found food such as rice and corn made up nearly 70% of their diet.The food was not processed,lacking added sugars or salts.
During my stay there,I went hunting and fishing with the men and played soccer with the kids.I found the Tsimane were standing or walking nearly all of their waking hours.Men spent lots of time tracking animals.Farming and gathering,mostly done by children and women,were allday affairs.
I also got a clear idea of how they rested.As soon as the sun went down,people returned to their huts and went to sleep.And with the call of the cock in the morning,another day began.
The lifespan (寿命) of the Tsimane is actually much shorter than those living in the US.Various factors,like animal attacks and infections,bring down the lifespan.But up until the day they die,they are often very healthy.While heart disease kills thousands of Americans every year and costs nearly a billion dollars a day,the Tsimane remind us that wealth doesn't necessarily buy health.

Processed foods like chips,sodas and frozen pizzas are full of salt,sugar,and fat.Now,scientists are trying to understand if there is something else about such foods that may be bad for humans.
Scientists have already linked lowcost,packaged foods to rising obesity rates around the world.Obesity increases the risk of many health problems.Three recent studies offer more clues on how our increasingly industrialized food supply may be affecting our health.
The researchers created a system that places foods into four groups.The system says highly processed foods are made mostly of industrialized materials and additives (添加剂).Sodas,packaged cookies,instant noodles and chicken nuggets (鸡肉块) are some examples of highly processed foods.But also included are products that can seem healthy,such as morning cereals,energy bars and some kinds of yogurt.
Researchers conducted a fourweek study involving 20 people.They found that people ate about 500 more calories a day when fed mostly processed foods.That is compared to when the same people were given less processed foods.The researchers permitted the 20 participants to eat as much or as little as they wanted.They were taken to a medical center so their health and behavior could be observed.In another study,researchers in France found people who ate more processed foods were more likely to have heart disease.A similar study in Spain linked eating more processed foods to a higher risk of death in general.
When fed less processed foods,people in the study produced more of a hormone that controls hunger,and less of a hormone that causes hunger.The reason for the reaction is not clear.The scientists also found that people ate processed foods more quickly.Kevin Hall is one of the researchers who led the study.He said that processed foods were usually softer and easier to chew and swallow.Hall noted the source of nutrients might make a difference.For example,fiber from fruit and vegetables may be better for making people feel full than fiber added to packaged foods such as energy bars and yogurt.
Avoiding processed foods can be hard,especially for people with limited time and money.Processed foods can also take many forms.In addition,companies continually reengineer products to make them seem healthier.The newest studies may provide more reasons to avoid processed foods.But,they also call attention to the difficulty of coming up with ways to do that.

When my children haven't played outside enough,I can tell their energy levels will go up and the noise will increase in the house.I feel upset,so I tell them it's time to go outside.Usually,they complain and come up with reasons why staying in is better,but I insist.__1__ Sometimes I give them a minimum time limit,say 20 minutes,before they could come back inside.But often they forget about it once they're wrapped up in a game.

Outdoor play also has educational value.There's so much active learning that goes on outdoors.__4__ For example,building a bridge across a hole that will support the weight or getting the right consistency of mud by mixing dirt and water.They'll also do better in school after spending more time outside.
