Hello friends! Today in our Farsi podcast, we’re stepping up to an intermediate level and learning new words and sentences together. First, we’ll improve our social conversations with phrases like “I’m happy you’re here” and “What’s up?” Then, we’ll introduce key vocabulary such as “restaurant,” “library,” and “hospital" and make some sentences.

Walnuts Could Help Students with Stress, Says Study

University isn't all sleeping, parties, and video games — many students find it a stressful time, with exams and the beginning of adult life.

But a recent study has suggested that there's a food that could help with some of that stress — walnuts.

Walnuts are known to be a healthy snack. They contain healthy fats and proteins, which are good for the body and the mind.

They may not be the most exciting food for young adults to snack on in a world of pizza and burgers, but they could have a positive effect both on academic stress and on the health of the body.

That's according to researchers from the University of South Australia, who had 80 students take part in their study.

One group of students was asked to eat about half a cup of walnuts every day for 16 weeks. They could eat them as a snack or add them to meals at any time of the day.

The other participants were told not to eat nuts for those 16 weeks.

The researchers found that academic stress was having a negative effect on student's mental health, on the amount of protein in their bodies, and — in female participants — on the diversity of bacteria in their guts.

But these things all improved among those who had been eating walnuts.

Larisa Bobrovskaya, one of the study's authors, said not only are walnuts good for students, they're an easy thing to add to lots of different meals.

However, she also said just having something extra to eat might have made the students feel better, so more research is needed.

The legend of Turul

When we talk about Lionel Messi, it's easy to talk about numbers. He has been named the best men's player in the world eight times. He has won one World Cup, four European Champions League trophies and an Olympic gold medal.

He has scored more than 800 goals for his clubs and his country.

But these numbers only tell some of the story. It's also his balance, the way he moves his feet, slides the ball through another player's legs and finds space on the field.

Soccer is often called "the beautiful game," and for many people, no one has ever played it quite as beautifully as Messi.

His story began in Rosario, Argentina, where he was born in 1987. There, when he was a child, he played for a club called Newell's Old Boys.

Clubs around the world soon heard about the young star in South America, and aged 13 he moved with his family to Spain, where he joined FC Barcelona's junior team.

By the age of 16, he was already playing for the club's adult team. Goals, then trophies, came quickly, and he never looked back.

He was soon a global star, and one of the world's highest paid sportspeople.

Messi left Barcelona in 2021, having scored more goals for the club than anyone else. He joined Paris Saint-Germain, and then, two years later, Inter Miami in the US.

In 2022, he was Argentina's captain and the star player in his country's World Cup win. Messi, at just 170 centimeters tall, had become a giant of the sport.
