have been revealed to have had varied and sometimes vegetarian diets， while some also used plant-based medicines to treat illnesses， according to Australian-led research on Thursday.


Often thought of by many as simple "cave men" with only weak links to modern humans， Laura Weyrich from the Australian Centre for Ancient DNA has said analysis of Neanderthal dental plaque has revealed a varied and "modern-looking" vegetarian diet.


"It's a very， very different picture from the grunting， club-toting Neanderthal that we like to think about，" Weyrich told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) on Thursday.


"They were probably very intelligent， communicative and very in tune with what was going on around them."


Weyrich revealed that some families of Neanderthal， such as the El Sidron group from modern Spain， ate a diet comprised mostly of plants and vegetables available in the forest.


She said there was evidence of pine nuts， mushrooms， grass and moss in the plaque analysis from the El Sidron Neanderthals.


"So that's the true palaeo diet，" Weyrich said. "That's what people would have been eating in palaeolithic times if they lived in a forest like the El Sidron Neanderthal did."


In addition， Weyrich said the research uncovered evidence that Neanderthals used specific plants to try and treat a variety of illnesses， including using poplar bark - which happens to contain an active ingredient in Penicillium and aspirin - to counter the effects of gastrointestinal issues such as diarrhoea.


"So it is likely he would have been trying to self-medicate，" Weyrich said.

Education > Child EducationAfter School Activity for the Hyperactive Child

ADHD refers to attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder. Most children who
suffer from this disorder suffer from attention problems as well as hyperactivity. Parents of such children are well aware that inattention and hyperactivity continue throughout the day. Keeping such children busy after school hours can be as difficult as keeping them safe during the school day.


The first step while choosing the right after school activity for your child is to understand how ADHD affects him. Is your child interested in sports? Is he put off by the fierce competitiveness, or does he find it hard to get along with teammates? Does your child vocalize his feelings, or is communication a problem?


For a child suffering from ADHD, physical exercise is always beneficial. Exercise takes up the extra energy and helps to stimulate the brain. Team activities teach social skills and discipline. But Dan Feeney Shirt , if your child shies away from team sports, you may want to look at activities like dancing, cycling, swimming or gymnastics. Martial arts not only teach techniques of self-defense but also teach self-control and patience.


If your child shows aversion to sport and shows inclination towards the fine arts Mike Williams Shirt , you may need to look at some other options. Acting classes are a wonderful form of creative exercise. It also provides the child with ample opportunity to develop his social skills. Music, art or dance can help the child to keep himself busy and entertained.


In case the child is not interested in any of the above, you may want him to join a Boy Scouts club or other community oriented clubs that take up social work. Cleaning a park, putting on a show Jahleel Addae Shirt , helping out in an old age home are various activities that may pique your child's interest.


Whatever form of activity you choose, make sure that you monitor your child's progress periodically
