Many times, we find it very amusing to see people who can keep a smile on their face all the time．It’s kind of annoying, isn’t it? 1.___Let’s see some tips on how to have a positive attitude and see how that can change our lives．
2.__ It really works! If you’re stuck in a terrible situation or a negative stage of your life, all you have to do is to think of the good times that are going to come after your bad stage gets over．Hope for the best and you will get the best．
We always feel good when we help others in some way, right? There’ a sense of achievement, satisfaction and positivity associated with giving and helping．3.
Being grateful for what you have can help you to be positive．If you’re the type to be whining, complaining and groaning about the things you don’t have, we must say that you need a reality check．4. Look around you and see other people who don’t have enough resources like you do．
Forget the regrets of your past．Are you in a depressed mood all the time because you are carrying the burden of a trouble past with you? Then you must realize that every moment you think of a dark past with negativity, you will lose one bright moment of your present and the future．Letting go of your past is the only way you can have a positive attitude all the time．
5. Keeping fit and healthy is a critical tip in having a positive attitude．You might have all the money, success and the luxury in the world, but you won’t be able to enjoy anything if you don’t have good health．
A．So try to do a good deed a day and help others with your strengths．
B．Being unsatisfied will also be a barrier in helping you to have a positive attitude．
C．That’s because we don’t know the advantages of having a positive attitude all the time．
D．It’s no use complaining because you have already had a good life．
E．Think of the good times you are going to have．
F．Make sure you know the importance of good health．
G．Try to think about terrible and negative things in your life．
The World Health Organization says there has been a sharp increase in the number of over-weight children in developing countries．In African countries, the WHO says the number of over-weight or obese children is twice as high as it was 20 years ago．Around the world, about 43 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2013．
Overweight and obese children are more likely to become overweight and obese adults．The condition can generate serious health problems like heart diseases．
Francesco Branca is the director of the WHO Department of Nutrition for Health and Development．He says urban lifestyle makes people eat processed food more often, which has a high sugar, fat and salt content．He also says people are gaining weight because of their lack of activities．They travel in cars or other vehicles more than on foot．
The WHO experts say to lower obesity rates is especially complex in countries that also deal with high rates of infectious diseases．
The WHO has some basic solutions for individuals and countries．The organization says you should lower your intake of fat, sugar, salt and processed food and eat more fruits, vegetables and increase physical activity．The WHO says these actions are especially important for children．
And WHO expert Branca says mothers should breastfeed their babies for at least the first six months of life, if possible．More importantly, governments should consider providing vitamins for children and educational campaigns about problems linked to obesity would also help．In his view, government policies should deal with how food is marketed to children and food producers must balance quality and taste with the dangers of sugar, fat and salt．"Reducing the number of overweight children will not be easy．The goal is difficult to meet even in wealthy countries．" he adds．

“Old wives tales” are beliefs passed down from one generation to another, For example, most of us remember our parents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things．Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking, but others have not passed the test of time．
Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration．Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%．Garlic is good for you, too．It can kill the type of virus that causes colds．
Unfortunately, not all of Mom’ s advice passed the test of medical studies, For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating．But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so．Do sweets cause tooth problems? Well, yes and no．Sticky sweets made with grains tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars．
Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold water, there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales．After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated from thousands of years of experience in family health care．We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false．

A．Eating garlic is good for our eye
