Judy Halpern and,Nicole Riesman administered.all in,s6hool.questionnaires and interviews. Many thanks to the school suBerintelidents, 'principals and teachers, whose cooperation allowed us to discover. valuable information of What students don't,know about burn 'prevention. One aspect of the Educational Diagnosis, the telephone survey, was conducted by Marttila, Payhe, Kiley and Thorne, under the supervision of Rebecca CraWford, and EDC. NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION as.sumed reSponsibility for' the collection and, analysis of the burn injury baseline data. F. James Kauffman collabOrated with George A.

  • Energy Drink Consumption in Adolescents
    Energy Drink Consumption in Adolescents "Are energy drinks good for children? Raising Parent Awareness" Tag Words: Energy Drinks; caffeine; stimulant; Red Bull Authors: Rahul Vasudeva & Richard P. Moses with Julie M. Fagan Ph.D Summary Gorilla marketing and lack of regulation of energy drinks has resulted in an increase in consumption of energy drinks high in caffeine in adolescents. In fact, children below the age of 19 account for 60% of those purchasing energy drinks. On average, about 45% of patients each year admitted to an emergency room for caffeine overdose are adolescents. The hazardous effects associated with consumption of energy drinks in adolescents are discussed. These include alterations in neurological development, an increase in blood pressure and the possibility of addiction. To get the word out, answers to such questions as: are energy drinks good for children, what is a safe consumption of caffeine for adolescents; what effects do energy drinks have on children; are there healthier alternatives; and what can parents do to prevent their child from drinking energy drinks; were put on the web site Ask.com and a Parenthood website. Video Link Energy Drinks: The Effects on Adolescents: http://www.youtube.com/user/DRJULIEFAGANSTUDENTS#p/u/11/1sYWna06u9Q Part I: Energy Drinks Exposed Introduction Page 1 (RV) Energy drinks have created a huge craze in the last past decade amongst consumers. More and more people daily are consuming energy drinks in order to function optimally throughout the day. As more people begin to work longer hours, study longer and take on more responsibilities, the need for energy drinks has become an immense necessity for most people in working America.

  • Synthetic Energy Drink (Burn) Effects on Life Span of Drosophila Melanogaster
    International Journal of Scientific Research and Review ISSN NO: 2279-543X SYNTHETIC ENERGY DRINK (BURN) EFFECTS ON LIFE SPAN OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER Amrutha M.R and *Krishna M.S Stress Biology Lab, Department of Studies in Zoology, University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore, Karnataka- 560006, India. Email: [email protected] , [email protected] Contact No. : +919480252830 ABSTRACT Quality and quantity of components found in the diet has a significant influence on health benefits. Different varieties of synthetic energy drinks are in use; however the quality and quantity of components found in these synthetic energy drinks are different. Present study has been undertaken in Drosophila melanogaster (D. melanogaster) to evaluate the effect of synthetic energy (Burn) on longevity. It was found that larval feeding rate was significantly greater in natural energy drinks compared to larval feeding rate in synthetic energy drinks. Further it was also noticed that flies live significantly longer in natural energy drinks than those flies lived in synthetic energy drink (Burn). Thus it was noticed from the study that consumption of synthetic energy drink (Burn) has detrimental effect on longevity in D. melanogaster. Key words: Drosophila melanogaster, Longevity, Synthetic energy drinks, Natural energy drinks. *Corresponding author M S Krishna Assisstant professor Stress biology laboratory, Department of Studies in Zoology, University of Mysore, Manasagangotri, Mysore, Karnataka- 560006, India.
