Vol.115(Nov –Dec 2000). p. 537-543<http://www.jstor.org/pss/4598589?searchUrl=%2Faction%2FdoBasicSearch%3FQuery%3D.%2BLeadContaminated%2BImported%2BTamarind%2BCandy%2Band%2BChildren%25E2%2580%2599s%2BBlood%2BLead%2BLevels%26acc%3Doff%26wc%3Don&Search=yes>.
In 1999, a study was done about “tamarind candy” which was a possible source of lead exposure to a child that showed considerably a high blood lead level. This caught the attention of the Oklahoma City-County Health Department they tested about two types of “tamarind suckers” candy they also tested the packaging for any type of lead content. According to the article “more than 50% of the tested suckers exceeded the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Level of Concern for lead in this type of product”. people from all over the country found out about this and began to keep an eye out for these poisons Lead- Contaminated cadies.
This article has helped me because I found out that Lead poisonings could be found in a package of candy. This article will help me make a stronger argument for my final paper. Moreover, it has giving me a better understanding of the precaution that we must have in order to protect ourselves.

A group of trained cyclist was chosen to participate in an experiment that would conclude the role of various sugars in exercises. The experiment required that the cyclist would ride till they were exhausted on many different occasions. Once they were done with each race they were given a sweetened drink the contained fructose or glucose some of the racers were drinking sweetened milk. After they drank the sweetened drink doctors tested them to see what kinds of effects if any these sweetened drinks made on them.
This article is going to help me determine the good side that sugar has on the human body. Also, it will provide a better research for me to make my final paper much stronger.
