According to many studies, some foods may help to improve your memory. Why not try them?

6 . While many people think of the vegetarian diet (素食) as one of the best ways to lose weight, scientists point out that a vegan diet is more effective for weight loss. A vegan diet is a diet that avoids animal products. It is stricter than a vegetarian diet. Vegetarians give up eating meat, while in a vegan type of diet, people give up not only meat, but all other animal products, including milk and eggs.
People choose to follow a vegan diet for various reasons. Some people choose it for better health. They believe that animal-based food, like red meat, is a main reason for many types of health problems. Plant-based food, however, is usually low in calories and fat, and it might prevent a few illnesses. Others pick up a vegan lifestyle because it’s better for the environment. Meat-based diets use more resources, including land, water, and energy, to produce food, while vegan diets require less farm land.
You may ask if this kind of diet can provide enough protein to keep the body healthy. Some nutritionists (营养学家) explain plant proteins can give enough energy humans need in daily life. Some of them even believe foods should be eaten without being cooked. In this way, helpful nutritions can be kept better. That makes a vegan diet a healthier lifestyle. Nutritionists also state that whichever diet one may follow, it’s important to make sure that it contains all the nutritions the body needs. Still, understanding the effects of vegan diets on health remains challenging, because research on this eating style is often put together with vegetarian or plant-based diets.
The vegan style can be difficult in practice unless people are well prepared to follow this lifestyle. It may not suit everyone as people are in different health conditions. So learn about your body well before you make any decision. In this way, you will make the best choice for yourself.

9 . Today, people want to keep healthy through sports and exercise. But some of them have some wrong ideas about it. “A plate of chicken is a good meal before games because it has much energy.”

“The best time to exercise is early in the morning.”
No. Morning is a good time to exercise, but it may not be suitable for you. If an afternoon or evening is suitable for you, and you enjoy the feeling of getting healthier, you can choose any time to exercise. So there is no fixed time for you to exercise.
“If you drink water when you exercise, you’ll feel tired.”
The fact is that you must have some water during breaks（休息时间）when you exercise. And after exercising, you must have enough water. If you don’t drink enough water, then you may feel tired.
