Salt is a type of mineral. Adding a little salt to food can bring out the food’s natural avor. It can also be used to preserve food. Not only does salt improve our diets, it is essential to our health. Our muscles need it to move. Our hearts need it to beat. Even the brain and nerves need salt to communicate and function properly. If we do not get enough salt, the systems in our bodies do not work well. We might get tired, and our thinking might slow down. Our muscles might get sore, or we might even get headaches. Eating salt helps our bodies and minds work better.

This is dangerous because it can lead to heart problems. And because people tend to like the taste of salty food, heart problems are becoming more common.

In old times, the first almanac was a chart showing the movements of the stars for a period of several years. Later almanacs were printed in a book form and included information which was especially useful to farmers. In the sixteenth century, almanacs began to be issued every year and included predictions of the weather.
At about the same time, almanacs included
calendars listing holidays. In the seventeenth century, almanacs included jokes. Benjamin Franklin continued this tradition with "Poor Richard’s Almanac", which was published in 1732-1758.
