Obesity and a sedentary lifestyle have been an increased risk of heart disease.

It's no secret that fruit is a smart part of a healthy diet. They are likely to be better for you than any other food. But is all fruit created equal?Let's find out which fruits are the best if you're looking to lose weight.

Apples are a common favourite. They're the finest snack: filling, juicy, crunchy(易碎的)，and easy to take along. Studies have even shown that eating three apples per day can help with weight loss.

There are plenty of ways to eat apples:Chow down on a whole apple, add apple pieces to your meal, throw apple balls into a salad, bake some with your chicken, or cook up a low-calorie dessert.

Watermelon is low in calories with high water content. This means you can eat two entire cups of watermelon for less than 100 calories and your stomach will feel like you've eaten more because the fruit is more than 90 percent water. This way, you'll avoid higher-calorie foods and satisfy your sweet tooth.

Raspberries are small but powerful!These babies are low in calories and even lower when you consider that they're high in indigestible(可消化的) fiber. Raspberries have the highest fiber content of any fruit (1 cup = 8g fiber).

Grapefruit gives you a lot of help for your calorie avoidance. A middle-size grapefruit has only around 80 calories, and like watermelon, it's more than 90 percent water. Plus, studies have shown that a compound(化合物) in grapefruit called naringin could lower blood sugar and lead to weight loss. So enjoy some grapefruit at every chance—press it into your water, throw some into your salad, or use it like lemon to flavour your food. Keep in mind that eating grapefruit with certain medicine could have harmful influence. If you're on any prescription(药方)，check with your doctor before adding grapefruit to your diet.

Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur(创业者)，who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13，her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.

It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it?”With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.

With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.

Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product—CanCandy.

As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.

Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilieCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.

An unconventional new initiative(首创) in Canada will soon allow doctors to prescribe art to their patients—by giving them free access to a local museum. Wandering through the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts(MMFA)，these patients and their loved ones will be able to feast their eyes on the peaceful collections of art.

The initiative is the first of its kind in the world. And while you certainly can't replace a conventional treatment with a couple of paintings, the idea is for such “prescriptions” to assist a person's current treatment plan. Under the new program, members of the Francophone Association of Doctors in Canada(FADC) will be able to hand out up to 50 prescriptions for their patients.

These prescriptions will be available for those with a wide range of mental and physical illnesses, and each of them will allow two adults and two children to visit the museum for free.

“By offering free admission to a safe, welcoming place, a relaxing experience, a moment of relief, and an opportunity to strengthen ties with loved ones, MMFA-FADC Museum Prescriptions contribute to the patient's well-being and recovery, ” explains a news conference from the MMFA.

It may look a lot like a marketing effort for the museum but there's also increasing evidence that the display of visual art, especially if it's showing nature, can have positive effects on health outcomes.

In some ways, the benefits of looking at art appear a little similar to physical activity. A systematic review of clinical art therapy(疗法) found that visual art has significant and positive effects on depression, anxiety, mood, and self-esteem. Findings like these are slowly gaining attraction in the medical community, making artwork a higher priority(优先) in hospitals around the world.

In the US, nearly half of all health care institutions have reported including art in health care programming, such as art therapy and the placement of visual art in hospitals. With spaces dedicated(专用的) to art therapy and also a medical consultation room, the MMFA already provides services for people with mental health issues, eating disorders, and Alzheimer's disease, just to name a few.
