Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system and at high doses it can have adverse effects on the body, such as, the occurrence of hyperesthesia and insomnia (Klein & Salzman, 1975). However, at moderate-low levels, caffeine has been found to increase both mental and motor performance (Graham, 1978). Lieberman (1992) investigated the effects of caffeine consumption in daily foods, concluding that lower doses are beneficial, improving an individual’s attention and response time in
Then horizontally on the line I just drew I marked off 9 spaces 1.5 cm apart. On one sheet inside the spaces I marked B1, then B2 in the next space and so on for the FD&C food color dyes, at the end I marked KS and KG for Kool-Aid strawberry and grape. On the second sheet of Chromatography filter pater I did the same thing. I made a 1 cm line from the bottom and spaced it off in 1.5 cm spaces. I marked those with the Store Food Colors, the M&M colors and the unknown color.

10 mL of each solution [0.16M KI, 0.0055M (NH4)S2O8, 0.12M Na2S2O3, and water] were added to an Erlenmeyer flask along with about 0.2 g of starch and a drop of EDTA (to prevent coagulation) and mixed with a stir bar. The reaction was conducted twice for room temperature (24.5ºC), cold (1.5ºC), and warm (37.0ºC). Observations were made as the mixture changed from clear to a dark blue, almost black. The time for this color shift was recorded (in seconds). By varying the temperatures, variables A and Ea could be determined.
Diabetes Awareness 1. Understand diabetes and the associated implications. 2.1 Define diabetes- Diabetes has two main types, them of which are: * Type 1 * Type two A vast amount of people have blood sugar levels above the normal range, but not high enough to be diagnosed as having diabetes.

When food is eaten the body breaks down all the starches and sugars into glucose, which essentially fuels the cells in the body. Insulin carries the sugar from the blood into the cells. Glucose builds up in the blood instead of moving into the cells, and this leads to diabetes complications. The buildup of Glucose in the blood also can lead to serious problems with the eyes, heart, nerves, kidneys, and gums and teeth. The risk for being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes is higher for people who are older, obese, have family history of the disease and who do not exercise.
Instead, the sweeteners are man-made chemicals. (Mercola, 21) The chemical was discovered in 1879 by two scientists, Dr. Ira Remsen and Constantine Fahlberg, who were researching toluene derivatives. Fahlberg spilled the toluene subordinate on his hand and later his dinner tasted sweet. He determined that the sweetness came about from the chemicals he was testing earlier. This new substance called saccharine (Sweet N’ Low) was named after saccharide, meaning complex sugar.
The dietary change includes increased consumption of fat, sugar and calories. The high stress levels also affecting insulin sensitivity. The distribution of fat around the trunk and central obesity also strong risk factors for diabetes (Yajnik 2001; Everson, 2002; Napora, 2013). The level of education and income are associated with diabetes in high-income countries. International Diabetes Federation was estimated that the impaired glucose tolerance was as high as diabetes in all regions.
