Answer to Question 1

The cephalic phase of digestion begins even before food enters your mouth. During this phase, the thought, smell, and sight of food stimulate the central nervous system. In turn, neural signals travel from the brain to the GI tract, stimulating GI motility and the release of digestive secretions. This response serves as a wake-up call to your GI tract, preparing it to receive and digest food.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
