This is a chapter that I really did not know a lot until I started reading it and I think it is something that people should be more aware of since we are talking about earth and our existence.

Violence and Unintentional Injuries
Violence is a really interesting topic but also hard to understand for me. Some people abuse others and show their power with violence. Some people abuse other because of some psychological trauma that they might’ve seen or being part of. However, it is just really hard for me to understand why someone would ever wantContinue reading “Violence and Unintentional Injuries”
Infectious Conditions
The first thing that caught my eye in this chapter was Antibiotic resistance since it is something that has never crossed my mind. The fact that at least 70% of antibiotics produced are ingested by animals and fish that we consume it is crazy.

Alcohol and Tobacco
The past couple of months has definitely been tough for me because all the personal stuff that has been going on in my life and all the adjustments that has happened in the past two months.

Chapter #6
Chapter 6 is a really interesting chapter because sometimes when we think about addiction, the first thing that comes to our heads is drugs. Because it is something easier to measure and because only recently we noticed that people can be addicted to shopping, sex, social media, working out, in other words, everything. The firstContinue reading “Chapter #6”

This chapter was really interesting because there was so much to learn from. The first interesting topic that caught my eye was all the different types of methods to prevent pregnancy.
