We are learning about the heart. We are lucky because two visitors are coming to talk about our diet and our heart. One of our visitors is a dietitian and her name is Jeanette Karam. Our dietitian came to school at 9:20 she talked about our diet and what we should be eating and what we should be not eating. She talked about all the vitamins we need to keep our body healthy. She also talked about the food pyramid and what kind of food is in the food pyramid. We talked about fruits. Fruits have fibers and anti-oxidants. The anti-oxidants help your arteries by not clogging.                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

 Now it’s time for the second visitor. His name is Dr.Antoin abchee. He is a cardiologist. He is going to talk about the heart with us. First we talked about the health of the heart and how to take care of it. Then he showed us a model of the heart and how it functions. He told us a lot of information about the heart. He told us that if you eat too much fatty products you will have high cholesterol. He also told us if you smoke your heart and lungs will turn black and if you smoke to much you might have an open heart surgery or a bypass surgery.

It was really awesome to have them!
