It doesn’t matter if we are living in France, Australia, United States or Colombia, we find drug addicts everywhere. In the city I live in we can see them on a certain place near the Police Station. They gather there to buy drugs and consume. There are also some abandoned houses where they go to inject themselves. It’s a lifestyle. A strange lifestyle.

Fortunately there are good drug rehab centers that help those willing to change their life. We have a free clinic in a not far city that helps drug addicts. I personally know a happy story.

For those who live in California area, you can check the drug rehab center Sunset Malibu, they have a great drug rehab program for addicted people and their families.

Raw fruit, cooked or canned fruit, do they have the same nutritional value?

In a general way raw fruit is nutritionally richer once the cooked one loses some vitamins and the canned fruit usually has a sugar syrup that diminish the nutritional value.

Is it possible to eat too many fruit?
Exceeding the ingestion of fruit and vegetables is less harmful than the excess of ingestion of food from other food group. However balance is one of the golden rules for a healthy feeding therefore, when talking about fruit and vegetables, according to the new “feeding wheel” , 6 to 10 portions should be eaten daily, meaning 3 to 5 portions of fruit and the same of vegetables. Of course quantities vary according to age, sex and physical activity.
