Is drinking milk the best way to get calcium (钙)? A new report says it may not be.
“Drink your milk. It’s good for you!” You’re probably heard that many times, and it’s true. Milk has calcium, which is necessary for keeping bones (骨骼) and teeth healthy and strong. The US government (政府) even says that students should drink one cup of milk at each meal.
However, an organization asked the government to take milk off the school lunch menu. The organization says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein (蛋白质), all of which have not been so good for health.” The organization says there are better and healthier ways to get calcium, such as eating beans, broccoli and tofu. “People talk about milk because it is going to help build strong bones.” says Dr. Neal Barnard, the president of the organization, “But drinking milk may not be the best way to get the calcium your body needs.”
Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other ways to improve your bones strength, such as getting plenty of vitamin D and getting an hour’s exercise every day.
Some nutritionists (营养学家) disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important. Keri Gans says, “I don’t think it’s wise to take this drink off the school menu.”
Marion Nestle, a teacher at New York University, says. “It’s true that milk has healthy ingredients. Other foods have the same ingredients. It’s just a kind of food. Drinking too much might be a problem.”

You’re going to enter high school pretty soon. High school is a hard time for many students. To be able to do well in school, it is very necessary to stay healthy. Here are some suggestions for you.
The food at school is often not rich in nutrients (营养), but a lot of food is provided each time. Choose the healthiest food that is offered. Eat breakfast every day as breakfast is very important. Have meals at a fixed time each day. Prepare some fruit to eat every day.
Getting enough sleep is important in order to do well in school. Not only will enough sleep allow you to do well in your study, but also it will help to prevent you from getting sick. Getting enough sleep will help you stay happy, too.
Wash your hands every time after you go to the bathroom as well as before you have meals. At school, you have to touch a lot of things that others have touched. So wash your hands as often as possible.
