You might think there is nothing new about vitamin C. But a new chewable Vitamin C from Penta-Vite is news. Firstly, unlike many adult vitamins, Penta-Vites Vitamin C dosage is speciallyformulated for children. And there’s a second important consideration. Penta-Vite Vitamin C contains no artificial colours, flavours, preservatives, added sugar or alcohol. You will find that new Penta-Vite chewable Vitamin C tablets are available only at pharmacies. They're a useful supplement for children who may not be getting enough Vitamin C in their diet.

B) Because of Lissa (by Carolyn Meyer)
This book is about a group of teenagers who get together and form a hotline called EARS after their friend, Lissa, commits suicide. It tells the story of how they started the hotline and the ways in which they tried to help people. The book is interesting, you’ll enjoy reading it.
C) Britten, Benjamin (1913-1976) - an English composer of music mainly for voices, including the operas “Peter Grimes” and “Billy Budd.”
Bronte, Charlotte (1816-1855) - an English writer, best known for her novel “Jane Eyre”.
D) Recent studies in GB found that more than one in five 11-to-16-year-olds rarely discussed healthy at school. One in five skips breakfast, more than 16 % of girls also skip lunch. Many eat only chips, pizza, crisps and cola for lunch. They don’t get enough iron which is necessary for healthy muscles and for some reactions in the brain. The low iron levels could cause obesity, heart diseases, less healthy bones and anaemia. (from the Daily Telegraph)
E) Common Drugs
There are many causes of pain, and many ways to relieve it. Paracetamol-containing substances are often the first line of treatment. In general, if pain relief is required in children, this is the type of medicine used. Aspirin-containing medicines are also used but are not recommended for children and adolescents, because of a rare but dangerous condition that has occurred with their use.
F) A humorist once wrote that the word “diet” comes from the word “to die”. Most people who try to lose weight would probably agree. In GB, being overweight is a widespread problem. Many recommendations are given to help people control weight. A modern method is to make people understand a difference between real hunger and other factors that make them fat. For example, a travelling salesman realized that he had lots of snacks only while driving his car. Since he found the source of his overeating he could control the problem.
