The
traditional methods of drying, smoking, salting or pickling foods were wisely
used long before it was known why these methods were effective. It is now known
that the processes of decay are accelerated by enzymes already present in the
food cells and by bacteria or other
micro organisms which may be already present or may come from external sources.
To preserve food fro decay, it is necessary either to destroy the bacteria or
to creat an environment in which bacteria cannot multiply and enzymes are
inactivated by cold or by reducing the
moisture content.

psychologists and social workers have begun to study ways of care giving to
improve care of the elderly (tua). They have found that all caregivers share a
common characteristics. They believe that they are the best persons for the
job, for different reasons. One caregiver said she had always been close to the
mother. Another caregiver was the oldest child, and another was the youngest
child. Regardless of the reason, the caregivers all felt that they could do the
job better than anyone else.
Social workers interviewed
caregivers to find out) why they took on the responsibility of caring for an
elderly, dependent (bergantung) relative. They discovered three basic reasons. Many
caregivers believed that they had an obligation to help their relatives. Some stated that helping others was felt more
useful. Others hoped that by helping someone now, they would care when they
became old and dependent.
Researchers have found that caring
for the elderly can be a very positive experience. The elderly appreciated the
care and attention they received. They were affectionate and cooperative. However, even when care
giving is satisfying, it is hard work. Social workers and experts on aging
offer caregivers and potential caregivers help when arranging got the care of
an elderly relative. One consideration is to ask parents what they want before they
become sick or dependent. Perhaps, they prefer going into a nursing home, and
can select one in advance. On the other hand, they may want to live with their
adult children. Caregivers must also learn to arouse confidence in others and
ask for help from others. Brothers & sisters are often wiling to help, but
they may not know what to do.
