Millions of people around the world take dietary supplements in the belief that they will
boost their health. New research casts doubt on the benefit of these pills and tablets. A
new report from the American organization Consumer Report (CR) found serious health risk
from supplements that included vitamins, probiotics, and weight loss pills. CR said the
biggest problem with supplements is that they are largely unregulated. While medicinal
drugs have to be tested for safety and effectiveness, dietary supplements need far less
government approval in many countries. This means that consumers are largely in the dark
regarding the ingredients of the supplements and how the body will react to them.

Lisa Gill, an editor at CR, said the report showed how dangerous many supplements were.
She said they could cause liver failure, kidney failure, requiring kidney transplants, seizures,
and heart problem. Gill added: “Just because it’s not on a prescription, you say, ‘oh, it’s
safe,’ but that’s not necessarily true.” Gill urges consumers to avoid 15 ingredients
commonly found in supplements, including red yeast and caffeine powder. She warned:
“There have been deaths associated with each of these.” She told people to seek medical
help before taking supplements. She said: “Tell, your doctor and your pharmacist what you
are taking. Treat it like a medication. It’s that important. It’s really about your health.”

22. What is the text about?

I was teaching very basic class in BASIC programing to a group of adults. Adults who have
never been around computers are usually very nervous and are much harder to teach than
children.
I am a patient person, though. So I enjoy their success.

However I must share the following:

After putting a short program on the board, I told the students to type “R,” ‘U,” ‘N” and
press return to see the program executed.

Someone raised a hand in the back of the room, waving to get my attention, and the person
with the hand raised said, “I did what you said and it didn’t work.” Knowing too well that all
of us make mistakes when typing on the computer, I suggested that she retyped ‘R’, ‘U,’ ‘N’,
and press return. A few seconds later a lady’s hand goes up again. “It still doesn’t work,”, she
said.

So I went back to see what the problem was only to find that instead of typing RUN, she had
typed in the following: ARE VYOU IN!
