Breakfast ‘ Keeps teenagers lean’

Do you think that if you cut out your breakfast will help you to lose weight? If yes, then you’re wrong. You should know that your body needs some calories in order to burn some!

A study illustrated that some information about people who eat their breakfast are more likely to be much active and leaner than the other people who don’t. In addition, people who don’t eat their break fast they feel exhausted and tired all the time. They do not have enough energy to move or to think.

In my opinion, you really should eat a healthy portion for your breakfast. For example, a wholegrain of cereal. That would be better eating anything than eating nothing.

Lebanon

Lebanon is a wonderful country. It has many beautiful views and many old places and there are many visited Lebanon especially from the Gulf. Lebanon's capital is Beirut and it's one of the oldest cities in the world. Lebanon was called in the bible "the land of milk and honey" and Beirut's nickname is Paris of the East.

After the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, 100,000 Palestinians were evicted from the new stare of Israel and poured into Lebanon and they tried to share places in the government and asking for their rights. In 1975, members of radical Christian group, the Phalange, attacked and killed a bus full of Palestinians in downtown Beirut. In 1982 the Israeli army invaded the city with the aim of removing the Palestinians Liberation Organization in 1989 the tensions in Lebanon between Muslims and Christians was over and a peace deal between them. There are many human and economic costs of the conflict one of them: between 150,000 and 200,000 people died in the civil war. Also about 300,000 were wounded.

There are many things helped Lebanon to cover the loss in the civil war like paring money from business man in the Gulf and this thing helped to built highways and building crones and US-style shopping malls. Also people helped the government by coming together. On the other hand, there are also some disadvantages in Lebanon, such as: air pollution, traffic on the street and living there is too expensive.
