Women play a very significant role in the family. The future of the children lies on their hands. One of the common chores of women is to prepare food. To avoid suffering from any food related problems, they should be knowledgeable about the nutritional value of any food or drinks taken by the children. A recent news states that some brands of fruit juice contains excessive amount of arsenic. Arsenic interferes with cellular longevity by allosteric inhibition of an essential metabolic enzyme. Symptoms of arsenic poisoning include headache, confusion, convulsion, diarrhea, vomiting, and in severe cases coma and death. The FDA’s limit is 23 parts per billion for juice, as the FDA believes that people will consumer more water than juice in a day. Therefore, the agency allows more arsenic in juice because the greater consumption of water will “balance out” the greater arsenic content. Read more: http://www.newsytype.com/13...

this was such an amazing campaign. Really enjoyed being part of it! It's great that Amnesty branches out in this way to represent the women whose basic human rights are denied through dangerous childbirth.
Well worth watching 42 and stopping to think about what the pictures are tell.
This orgainsiation really is inspirational! Just goes to show the importance of education and women taking matters into their own hands despite the pressures imposed by tradition and poverty. Thanks for the post!
