15.Not many parents realize that by encouraging their children to drink plenty of fresh water,they're helping them build healthier,stronger bodies.
Water is the ideal drink to prevent thirst and ensure hydration(水合作用).Our bodies need water to regulate body temperature and to provide the means for nutrients to travel to all our organs.Water also transports oxygen to our cells,removes waste,and protects joints and organs.Poor hydration can affect a child's concentration levels,memory and learning ability.
"While most parents know that everyone should be drinking 6~8 glasses of water each day,they often find it difficult to get their children to drink water,"says Megan Pentz-Kluyts,a leading registered nutrition coach.However,there are healthy ways of making water tastier.
Keep a big bottle of water in the fridge that has been flavored with fresh fruits and herbs,such as chopped lemons,strawberries,apples,or oranges,as these flavor the water and up the intake of nutrients.
Mix fruit juices with water to increase water consumption.However,it's better to eat fruit whole as it provides nutrients such as fiber,vitamins,and minerals,which may not always be found in the same quantity once the fruit has been made into a juice.
Freeze bottles of water overnight so that the water is still cool later in the day when the sun is beating down.Use fun containers with your children's favorite characters on them to match the fruit or herb that's been used to flavor it for easy reference when grabbing from the freezer for school.
By encouraging your children to drink water from an early age,you'll help them form a habit that will be easy to follow through for the rest of their lives.You can set the best example by always reaching for water when you're thirsty or by making sure that there's always cool water readily available,whether in the fridge at home or packed into the car for after-school runs or family outings.

13.Everyone needs to be safe,loved and to have a sense of belonging.These are inborn and natural basic needs.In an effort to have these needs satisfied,many of us tend to please others.And it works for a while.We find that we experience less conflict with others,but the conflict within ourselves grows.Saying"no"produces feeling of guilt and saying"yes"brings anger.
My father was in the military,so we moved frequently.Being shy,I didn't make friends.What's more,I grew up in a household where grades,image and how others saw our family were very important.In our household a"C"was unacceptable,a"B"should have been an"A"and an"A"meant the lesson was too easy.I was too skinny,my sister was too fat and my brother's lips and ears were too big for his tiny head.
To stop pleasing others is easier said than done.It's a long process,one in which I am consistently working to perfect.The turning point for me came shortly after I got married.The very first thing we did to end the cycle of catering to others was develop our own identity as individuals and then as a couple.And then we developed a strong set of core(核心)values and a vision for our future.The third and one of the most valuable things we did during this process was develop our own personal influence on others and we valued deeply the opinions of the wiser and more successful people around us.
Besides,we should understand that sometimes helping people actually hurts them.Struggle is necessary to success.Struggle strengthens character,making people determined.So sometimes allowing people to struggle is the best thing you can do for them.

9.Sanlinx Inc.first introduced its original market defining SoyaJoy Soy Milk Maker over 14 years ago to the North America market.Now we are introducing the SoyaJoy G4,the fourth generation of advanced soy milk makers replacing the#1 rated SoyaJoy G3,to expand the market share.
The SoyaJoy G4 keeps all the SoyaJoy G3 features and functions.The main improvements are:
1.The G4 adds stainless steel to the lower part of the machine head,and thus makes the total grinding(研磨)and cooking chamber all stainless steel.This is very important for people who are concerned of plastic into food.
2.The G4 changes to bottom heating like a typical electric water kettle.Since soy mill,or soups are easily burnt onto bottom heating plate,many other bottom heating makers suffer from this problem.The G4 solved this problem by using advanced technologies and design.
3.The Perfect GrindTM Technology ensures excellent grinding and milk yields.It also makes the use and cleaning even easier.
4.Five one-button functions,for making milk from soaked beans,dry beans,and other seeds and grains or combination of them.It also makes soups and porridge.Added a"Keep Warm"function.
