1. Brain Drain
 Definition: The emigration of highly trained or intelligent people
from a country or other place. The loss of skilled intellectual and
technical labour through the movement of such labour to more
favourable geographic, economic, or professional environments.
 What are the drawbacks of 'Brain Drain' on poor countries?
One of the main problems facing poor countries today is the so-
called brain drain. Such a movement of highly skilled, talented
individuals is becoming so acute that many are worrying about its
effects on the economic development of the region.
More and more educated professionals such as engineers, doctors
and scientists are looking for better job opportunities and higher
incomes in western countries. Also more students from developing
nations receiving an education in Britain, the US, or France stay
after completing their studies.
Hence, it's not surprising that serious drawbacks are becoming more
and more apparent and social, economic as well as political
conditions are getting worse. Poor countries are wasting efforts and
energies in favour of the western countries, while they are in need
for their contribution in economics, education, health, planning,
scientific research and technology.
Moreover, we may notice a financial loss as a lot money is spent on
education and training of students who are favourable by the western
countries for free. To make matters worse, scientific research in
the developing countries is declining compared to the contribution of
migratory brains in the west.
 How to help reduce 'Brain Drain'? (Solutions)

Knowledge is power. Knowledge is more powerful than jet fighters
and bombers. Alas, poor developing countries are losing their bright
brains to the most industrialized nations. The poor is getting poorer;
while the rich is getting richer.

94193N61B6ACTo reduce brain drain requires that the developed and developing
nations reach a mutual agreement on how to reduce the pull and
push factors that make scientists flee Africa and Asia to Europe and
America. The United States should stop using its special visas to
lure talented professionals from their native countries. Also, African
nations should try and understand the contributions of scientists by
improving their working conditions.
Africa could also reduce its internal brain drain by updating its
school curricula to reflect its needs for the 21st century. African
schools produce more graduates in the arts and humanities than in
science and engineering. It does not come as a surprise that there are
only 20,000 scientists and engineers in Africa. Since science and
technology can increase the standard of living, it makes more sense
to produce more scientists and engineers.
Also important is that scientists should be employed as scientists.
The deteriorating economy in Africa has forced some professors,
medical doctors and scientists to accept minor blue-collar jobs to
survive. It is an internal brain drain to have many architects,
accountants and pharmacists unemployed.

2. How to keep a healthy diet?
Don't expect to remain healthy if you do not have a balanced
diet. You cannot eat whatever you like and stay in good health.
Firstly, you must eat the right things containing the necessary food
substances such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and
mineral salts. So, you should eat bread, rice and fruits and drink milk
for carbohydrates. Proteins are found in meat, fish and eggs.
Vitamins are found mainly in fresh fruit and vegetables.
Secondly, you should know why you eat these things. Carbohydrates,
for example, give you the energy you need to move and grow.
Proteins are essential for growth and repair. Vitamins are required to
