Antibiotics are a kind of natural and synthetic compound. They are used to stop or to restrain the
process of an organism’s growth, particularly bacteria. They can help to cure bacterial infections.
However, antibiotics are different from disinfectants in the bacteria killing process. A disinfectant
kills bacteria by creating an unnatural environment for germs to live.
In terms of treatment, antibiotics kill bacteria instantly without injuring those infected. Although,
antibiotics are good for medication, they are not effective in handling infection caused by viruses,
fungi, or other nonbacterial substances.
Antibiotics are classified based on their effectiveness against bacteria. There are antibiotics that kill
Gram- negative or Gram- positive bacteria and some antibiotics have a wider spectrum. The
effectiveness depends on the location of the infection and the ability of antibiotics to reach the
location of the infection.

That day was my first day of school. My family and I had just moved to the city the previous week so
I didn’t know anyone there. I went to school on the school bus. Everyone seemed to know one another
while I was just sitting quietly in the back row.
When we arrived at school, I got my schedule. It was very tight. I marked Tuesday since there was
English, my favorite subject, on the day. Friday would be hard because there were maths and physics.
It was a relief that we didn’t have to go to school on Saturday.
At break time, I heard some students complaining about the food in the canteen. I thought it was tasty
enough. The only problem I had was where to sit. I felt awkward about joining any table. Fortunately,
someone asked me to join her. Patricia was her name and she has become my best friend since that
day.
A study has shown that drinking coffee or tea or a combination of the two may be related to a lower
risk for stroke and dementia.
Researchers from China's Tianjin Medical University studied 365,682 participants from the UK
Biobank, aged 50 to 74. All the participants reported their coffee and tea intake habits. During an
average follow-up of 11.4 years for new-onset disease, 5,079 participants developed dementia, and
10,053 had at least one stroke.
According to the study published in PLOS Medicine, people who drank two to three cups of coffee or
three to five cups of tea every day, or a combination of four to six cups of coffee and tea, had the lowest
incidence of stroke or dementia.
Compared with those who drank neither coffee nor tea, people who drank two to three cups of coffee
and two to three cups of tea daily had a 32 percent lower risk of stroke and a 28 percent lower risk of
dementia.
Meanwhile, a lower risk of post-stroke dementia was associated with drinking coffee alone or in
combination with tea, according to the study.
The researchers also evaluated the link of coffee types with stroke and dementia. Among ground coffee,
instant coffee, and decaffeinated coffee, they found that ground coffee drinkers were associated with a
much lower risk of dementia, Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.
Coffee is a rich source of antioxidants and bioactive compounds while tea contains caffeine and
catechin which have neuroprotective properties, such as anti-oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory
effects.
