If we now thirst for protein as if it were water, it may be because the other two macronutrients fats and carbohydra
12、tes have each in turn been made to seem poisonous (有毒的) in the public mind. In the current nutrition wars, protein has emerged as the last macronutrient left standing. David L. Katz, an American doctor and public health scholar who is the director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center said,
13、 “First they told us to cut fat.

14、rms of nutrients, rather than read whole ingredients in all their complexity. A combination of diet fads and clever marketing has got us here.

18、hough priced at over 1,000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion”(陪伴) for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat per
19、form a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed (有吸引力) to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-ol
20、d mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr.

21、take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its
22、head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them.
