  A healthy dose of sunshine may be the secret to staying young, British scientists have revealed.Vitamin D is produced naturally by the skin in response to sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study.Researchers from King's College London studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres-a biological marker of ageing found in DNA.As people get older their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible to certain illnesses.

  But the study found women with high levels of vitamin D had comparatively longer telomeres-a sign of being biologically younger and healthier.The study suggests vitamin D may help to slow down the ageing process of DNA, and therefore the ageing process as a whole.

  Lead researcher Dr Brent Richards said:“These results are exciting because they demonstrate for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin D may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin D.”This could help to explain how vitamin D has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer.“He said further studies are required to confirm the findings.”

  Professor Tim Spector, head of KCL's twin research unit, and a co-author of the report, added:“Although it might sound absurd, it's possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process.”

  Vitamin D made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 per cent of the body's supply, but lower levels can also be obtained through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals.Other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.

[  ]

A.

B.

C.

To upcycle something is to take a used object and change it to a new function.
Recycling usually breaks down the material that an object is made from   【小題1】  it is made into something else. By that means it wastes plenty of energy.   【小題2】  recycling, upcycling just uses something in a new way without reprocessing   【小題3】  material it's made from. In addition to being  【小題4】  energy-saving, another major benefit of upcycling is   【小題5】  it reuses items made of materials which couldn't be dealt with by traditional recycling methods. When something is upcycled, nothing,   【小題6】 very little, is thrown away, with every component part having a potential use.
An upcycled product is generally   【小題7】  higher value than the materials or objects which are used to create   【小題8】 , like metal ring pulls becoming pins or earrings, low-value coins becoming cufflinks(袖扣), and so on.

     Wondering how many calories the banana cream pie on your plate has? Some Japanese have a novel
way to find out: Photograph it with a cellphone and send the image to an expert.With cellphones becoming common in  Japan and  rising  concern over expanding  waistlines,  healthcare providers will allow the
calorieconscious people to send photos of their meals to nutritionists for advice.
     Public health insurance offices in Osaka in Western Japan have launched the service on a trial basis.
About 100 cardiac patients signed up in the first year, followed by diabetes and obesity patients in the
second. "Japanese have been getting fatter, especially men in their 20s and 30s. There is concern over
what they learned about nutrition when they were younger," the Osaka official, Satomi Onishi said.
"We're hoping that this program can help us deal with the problem."
    Osaka is using a system developed by Asahi Kasei Corp. The system is operating among about 150
healthcare providers and local governments around the country. Nutritionists can work with photos from
one day's meals to several weeks' worth. Results come back  in  three  days.  People can also log on a
website to get further information.
    Dr Yutaka Kimura has developed a similar system at Kansai Medical University's Hirakata Hospital,
also in Osaka. Five patients have taken part in the programme, which costs $37 to join and $21 per
month. Patients photograph meals over the course of three to seven days, and a nutritionist emails advice
to them. "Patients used to fill in meal logs, but people tend to forget things or underestimate their portions," Kimura said. "Photographing meals and emailing them can be easier and get more accurate results."
    As Japanese have turned to bigger portions and more meat and fried foods,obesity and related illnesses such as high blood pressure have become a rising concern. The Health Ministry estimated last year that
more than half of Japanese men and about one in five women between 40 and 70 years old were at the
increased risk of heart disease, type ? diabetes and other diseases because of obesity. With the Health
Ministry hoping to see a 25% reduction in the number of people at the risk of these diseases by 2015,
Osaka officials hope the cellphone program will help.
