Hardworking.D Generous.CMore than a year into the pandemic of Covid-19, many people have grown used to a new lock-down lifestyle:keeping indoors,exercising less and eating more. “All of these contribute to worsening gut(消化道）function,says Christopher Andrews,the lead physician a
26、t the Calgary Gut Motility Center, adding that heartburn is on the rise.Heartburn is the painful effect of the stomachs acid creeping into the esophagus(食管). Diet is the greatest contributor: acidic foods such as grapefruits, hot sauce or coffee increase the amount of acid in your stomach, while cho
27、colate, alcohol and high-fat foods result in loosened sphincter muscle. If that muscle weakens or is unable to close completely, stomach acid might arise,causing the heartburn. Spicy food can also increase uncomfortable feelings in the gut.Heartburn occurs in bodies of all sizes, ages and genders, b
28、ut researchers have found that overweight (超重的)people are two to three times more likely to experience frequent heartburn than those with a healthy weight. This may be because of the increased pressure on the gut,which can push stomach acid up. Changes in diet, such as the recent tendency for people
29、 to turn to comfort food in lock-down, can also lead to the problem.Occasional heartburn isnt a problem, but experiences of frequent indigestion should push you to live a healthier life. According to a recent study of 9,000 heartburn patients, following a five-step health plan-maintaining a proper b

34、cording to new research that suggests solitude(孤独)isnt a red flag for depression.Most studies have confused solitude with loneliness or shyness, said Margarita Azmitia, lead researcher of the study. “There is a misunderstanding for kids who spend time alone. Theyre considered lacking in basic social
35、 skills, or called loners,” she said. “Its beneficial to know when you need to be alone and when you need to be with others. The key factor is choice.”When teens and young adults choose to spend time alone, solitude can prove an opportunity for self-reflection, creative expression, or spiritual rene
36、wal. It can be challenging when solitude is imposed on them-when they choose to avoid social activities because they lack friends, feel awkward, experience social anxiety, or are being punished.To tell the difference between these motivations, Azmitia developed a survey that asked people to rate the
37、ir motivations for solitude on a four-point scale, presenting questions like, “I feel energetic when I spend time by myself,” and “I enjoy the quiet,” versus “I feel uncomfortable when Im with others,” and “I regret things I say or do when Im with others.”Those who seek solitude because they feel re
38、jected or want to stay alone are at greater risk of social anxiety, loneliness, and depression, and they tend to have lower levels of identity development, and positive relationships with others. However, those who seek solitude for positive reasons, such as self-reflection or a desire for peace and
39、 quiet, face none of these risks.“These results increase our awareness that being alone can be positive,” said Azmitia. “The question is how to be alone without feeling like were missing out. For many people, solitude is like exercising a muscle theyve never used. You have to develop it, and learn t
