Walking Saves Energy and Also Helps the Brain

Now, you have an excuse to miss the school bus every morning. Researchers in Dana-Fabar and Harvard Medical School found that a specific molecule released during exercise, effectively protects your brain from degeneration. The molecules, called Irisin are produced as chain reaction to exercise. This molecule in turn, activates the learning and memory genes. Ditch those high-carbon emission vehicles and stick to walking. You are not only saving mother earth, but you are also making your self fit and intelligent.

 

Organic Foods are Healthier

Research in Stanford University confirmed that, compared to chemically grown foods, organic foods do not make people any healthier. But without poisonous insecticides and synthetic fertilizers, organic foods are at least safer to eat. You do not want these toxins getting into you blood stream and later on affecting your mental ability. With organic food such as whole grain, blueberries, tomatoes, broccoli and more, you get vitamins that boost brain power. Some of these vitamins and minerals are: vitamin B, folic acid, vitamin K, lycopene and more.

 

Reduce Paper for Convenience

Traditional tests, essay writing projects and school activities require students to write on papers. Decrease this to help the environment. Students should contribute to lessening carbon footprints by submitting essays online. You save more than 50% of resources if you ditch traditional process. Sometimes students have to write fast to accommodate time to print their papers. The results are poorly written projects. Going online makes submitting convenient to the students and fast for their professors.
