NOTICIA DE FÍSICA Y QUÍMICA
http://www.elmundo.es/elmundosalud/2010/09/03/nutricion/1283517621.html
La noticia sobre la nutricion, expecificamente sobre la prohibición de los bollos y publicidad sobre ellos en los colegios es una noticia muy positiva para la salud ya que gracias a esto se evita la obesidad. El comer bollería y dulces sin control puede provocar otras enfermedades como el colesterol, diabetes etc... En vez de dar publicidad sobre los bollos hay que dar información sobre alimentos mas sanos, como las frutas.
Para evitar una enfermedad como la obesidad o el sobrepeso hay que intentar comer menos bollos y comer mas frutas, verduras y si también se prohibe la publicidad sobre los bollos pues mejor, porque así no tientas en comprarlo.
También me parece bien, los nuevos métodos en los colegios, donde poco a poco , se van imponiendo normas para prevenir esas enfermades. Por ejemplo: mandando traer fruta en los recreos dos dias a la semana.
Igual que esta noticia, también está muy bien la nueva ley del tabaco, que por fin, lo han prohibido para que no se pueda fumar ni en los bares, ni cerca de los colegios, ni en las discotecas...
