Two Pieces of Research

The first resource mainly talk about a new discover of biology clock, which is researched by Northwestern University. The second and third resources that I find are talk about the healthy daily life. They are just time table which could be used by students to reference their own daily life table, so that they could life healthier. These resources are helpful for me to write the project of my topic. They are relating to my topic.

There are two main systems in people’s bodies, which are the nervous system and the digestive system. The nervous system mainly control about people’s brain and body’s movement. Enhance the brain’s activity could make the brain more and more smart, so that to help students to study very well. That is depend on rest time and how frequently students use their brain. The organs in people’s body which play an important roles for people keeping health. The digestive system is especially important because it is the main system to provide energy to people. Therefore, protect these two system is very important for people keeping health.

In Chinese medicine, people believe about the balance of body, there are two “Qi” in people’s bodies which are “Yinqi” and”Yangqi”. Only if they are balance, people’s bodies could work well. How do they balance? It is depend on human body’s biology clock and people’s daily life. The biology clock is an invisible clock in people’s body. “Regardless of our preferences, we are all governed by a biological clock with an approximate cycle of 24 hours corresponding to the Earth's rotation time. Biologically speaking, this molecular clock is known as the circadian rhythm.” (Tick, Tock the Biological Clock, 1998) It controls everything of our bodies, like what is time to sleep, when people need to sleep, and when people should to eat food. Using one day life to give an example, because of the college students always have a lot of homework, they have to stay up in the night to finish their homework. Obviously, they cannot have enough sleeping time to give their body and head sufficient rest. Rest is another way to get energy. Therefore, having a healthy daily life is very important for college students. These are some links about the healthy daily timetable: http://apps.who.int/gb/ebwha/pdf_files/EB117/B117_DIV2-en.pdf (world health organization, 2005) http://www.skyswood.herts.sch.uk/index.php?/eng/School-Life/Daily-Timetable(Daily Timetable, 2010)

The students could use this information to reschedule their daily life so that they could use their time more efficiency.
