Maria was in the kitchen, watching her mom prepare dinner. She noticed her dad coughing, a sound that seemed more frequent lately. Maria had read in one of her books about the dangers of certain foods, especially embutidos. She wondered if processed meats were the reason her dad wasn't feeling well. Maria knew she had to find out more, but where to start?
Maria decided to talk to her mom about it. - Mãe, você acha que os embutidos podem estar fazendo o papai se sentir mal? she asked. But her mother was too busy to listen, brushing off her concerns. Maria felt frustrated; she needed more information but didn't know where to find it. She felt as if a wall had been placed in her path.
Maria turned to her books, hoping they could provide some answers. As she read, she realized how complex the problem was. - I can't believe how much sodium and preservatives are in these foods! Maria exclaimed to herself. But just as she was getting somewhere, her younger brother barged in, demanding her attention. Maria felt like she was drowning in distractions.
After a few days, Maria felt defeated. - Maybe I'm just overthinking it, she thought, closing her books in despair. Her dad's cough persisted, but she was out of ideas. - I can't do this alone, Maria muttered, feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders. She considered giving up on her quest entirely.
Just when Maria was about to abandon her quest, her science teacher, Mr. Costa, noticed her distress. - Are you okay, Maria? he asked after class. Maria explained her concerns, and Mr. Costa offered her some advice. - Why don't you do a small experiment to show your parents? he suggested. This gave Maria a glimmer of hope and a new plan.
With Mr. Costa's guidance, Maria conducted a simple experiment about preservatives in embutidos. She presented her findings to her family during dinner. - Olhem o que eu descobri! she said with excitement. Her parents were surprised and impressed, realizing the potential dangers. They decided to cut back on embutidos, and her dad's health began to improve.
