What exactly is a tornado? The general picture is familiar enough. The phenomenon usually
occurs on a hot, sticky day with south wind and an ominous sky. From the base of a thunderhead, a

funnel-shaped cloud extends a violently twisting spout toward the Earth. As it sucks in matter in its
path, the twister may turn black, brown or even white. The moving cloud shows an almost continuous
display of sheet lightning . It lurches along in a meandering path, usually northeast ward, at 25 to 40
miles per hour. Sometimes it picks up its finger from the earth for a short distance and then plants it
down again. The funnel is very slender; its wake of violence averages about 400 yards wide. As the
tornado approaches, it is heralded by a roar as a hundreds of jet planes or thousands of railroad cars.
Its path is a path of total destruction. Buildings explode as they are sucked in by the tornado’s low-
pressure vortex ( where the pressure drop is as much as 10 percent ) and by its powerful whirling
winds ( estimated at up to 500 miles per hour ). The tornado’s lifetime is as brief as it is violent.
Within a few tens of miles ( average about 16 miles), it spends its force and suddenly disappears.

Carbohydrates, which are sugars, are an essential part of a healthy diet. They provide the main
source of energy for the body, and they also function to flavor and sweeten food. Carbohydrates
range from simple sugars like glucose to complex sugars such as amylase and amylopectin.
Nutritionists estimate that carbohydrates should make up about one-fourth to one-fifth of a person’s
diet. This translates to about 75 – 100 grams of carbohydrates per day.
A diet that is deficient in carbohydrates can have an adverse effect on a person’s health. When the
body lacks a sufficient amount of carbohydrates it must then use its protein supplies for energy, a
process called gluconeogenesis. This, however, results in a lack of necessary protein, and further
health difficulties may occur. A lack of carbohydrates can also lead to ketosis, a build-up of ketones
in the body that causes fatigue, lethargy, and bad breath.
