1. lower liquid sugar: a) reduce sugary drinks b) more water, sugar free juice
2. lower high GI carbs: a) less white rice/potato b) more brown rice/quinoa
3. reduce refined desserts a)reduce frequency/portions b) more natural sugar desserts
Mr. Gomez, we used to combat weight gain and diabetes by reducing fat and calories but now we
know the main problem is sugar as well as foods that readily convert to sugar in the body. The
easiest first step is to reduce your consumption of sugary drinks 1 such as soda, sports drinks and
juice with added sugar in favor of water or juice without sugar 2. Secondly, you can replace
carbohydrates that easily convert to sugar such as potato, platano and white rice 3 for low sugar
carbohydrates such as brown rice or quinoa 4; alternatively, you could increase consumption of
vegetables such as habichuela, ahuyama or calabazin. Finally, you can reduce the portion size of
desserts with refined sugar5 or eat lower sugar desserts such as fruits, dates or dark chocolate 6.
You may even find that after a time you enjoy the more complex texture and flavor of these
foods/drinks the same way an adult eventually prefers a good coffee, beer or glass of wine to the
soda they preferred as a child. (6 pts + intro + conclusion = 48 seconds)
That lead poisoning from plumbing caused public health problems in the Roman Empire is a MYTH.
First, water in the plumbing network was in constant MOtion such that the time between water
ENtry to a pipe and EXit to a public fountain was only a few minutes, not enough time for a
SIGnificant amount of lead to leach into the water. Secondly, the high MINeral content present in
northern Mediterranean water caused a rapid accumulation of calcium carbonate that COVered
the lead in most pipes. Finally, not ALL plumbing was composed of lead; in fact, many conNECtors
and FIXtures were made of BRONZE. (3 pts, 27 seconds)

====================Title: #3: Refute a common myth from your field (mini 3 pt talk)=====
Title #3: The mass that enters a process is exactly the same that leaves it (Chem Ing.)
All the matter that we feed in a process is the same thing that we obtain is a MYTH. First, when
you expose the mass into DIfferent physical conditions it is CONstantly changing, and its
composition will NOT be the same as the beginning of the process even more if is POssible a
contact with Other compounds. Secondly, through the process MAss can be consumed, and it
its PHYsical state can change. Thus, it is not the same aMOunt when it is transformed into
something else like ENergy. Finally, mass balance is not COMplex to understand but it is difficult
to preDICT.
