The idea that coffee is bad for your heart pops up periodically. Over the last 20 years several studies -
mainly in Europe – found that regular drinking very strong coffee could sharply increase cholesterol
levels. Researches even isolated fatlike chemicals, cafestol and kahweol, responsible for the rise. It
turned out that the European brewing method – boiling water sits on the coffee grounds for several
minutes before straining - produces high concentrations of cofestol and kahweol. By contrast, filter
and percolation methods remove all but a trace of these chemicals. Moreover, the studies involved
large amounts of coffee – five to six cups a day. Average coffee drinkers consume only two cups.

According to to the text, the European method of brewing coffee results in a high concentration of
substance which ....
A. increase the levels of cholesterol in our body
B. cause the coffee to taste better
C. remove the fatlike chemicals from our body

If you're new to running, pay attention to the following basic running tips:
1. Get the right running shoes. Wearing the right running shoes is the key to comfort and injury
prevention.
2. Make sure you warm up and cool down. A good warm-up signals to your body that it will
have to start working soon.
3. Learn the proper upper body form. Improper upper body form can lead to pain in your arms,
shoulders, neck, and back. Try to keep your hands at waist level, right about where they
might lightly brush your hip. Your arms should be at a 90 degree angle, with your elbows at
your sides. Keep your posture straight and erect. Your head should be up, your back straight,
and shoulders level.
4. Don't worry about pace. As a beginner, most of your runs should be at an easy or
"conversational" pace. You should be able to breathe very easily and carry on a conversation.
5. Try a run/walk approach. Most beginner runners start out using a run/walk technique
because they don't have the endurance or fitness to run for extended periods of time. The
run/walk method involves running for a short segment and then taking a walk break. As you
continue with a run/walk program, the goal is to extend the amount of time you're running
and reduce your walking time.
6. Don't do too nuch too soon. New * runners sometimes get too enthusiastic and anxious to
get started and end up increasing their mileage too quickly which can lead to injury. Don't
increase your weekly mileage by more than 10% each week.
7. Breathe in through your nose and mouth. Some new runners assume they should breathe in
only through their nose. You actually want to breathe in through your nose and mouth to
make sure you're getting enough oxygen to your muscles while running. Taking deep belly
breaths can help prevent side stiches, which are a common issue for new runners,

I think many people assume that organic food is expensive. However, there are so many immense
benefits of eating organic food.
First, organic foods reduce public health risks to farm workers, their families, and consumers.
Planting organic vegetables and fruits minimize their exposure to toxic and persistent chemicals on
the farm and in food. Children are especially vulnerable to pesticides. Thus, choosing organic food is
the best way.
Second, vegetables, fruits, and grains grown organically are rich in nutrients, such as vitamin
C, iron, magnesium, and phosphorus. They are also less exposure to nitrates and pesticide residues
when compared to conventionally grown products.
Lastly, while organic food is good for the consumers, organic farming creates healthy soil.
Healthy soil creates healthy food and a healthy environment. It is the basis for organic agriculture.
Organic farmers use natural organic fertilizers and soil amendments like organic matters, green
manures, and animal manures to build healthy soil. When food is grown in healthy soil, crops are
better able to resist disease, survive drought, and tolerate insects.
Therefore, organic food is not only good for the consumers, but it is also good for the farm
workers and soil.

A. how to get organic food
