Restrict your sodium (salt) intake. Try to limit sodium intake to less than 1,500 milligrams a day. This target is especially important for middle-aged and older people, African-Americans, and people with high blood pressure. The DASH diet is a good example of a heart-healthy eating plan that limits sodium intake.
The Common Core is not a curriculum, only a set of standards: goals and expectations for students. Curriculums will still be developed by local teachers, principals, superintendents, and others. Individual lesson plans will still create the lesson plans in their classrooms.
The mechanism of control is the tests that all students must take, which will be written by the people who created Common Core. If students havenât studied a curriculum âalignedâ with Common Core, they will have a hard time passing the tests required for a high school diploma and entry into college.
