Source text - English Also referred to simply as 'toko', the tokonoma is a kind of an alcove, or a niche in the wall, that began to be built into the reception rooms and tea-rooms of woden houses of Japan about the 14th century. Hanging picture scrolls, antique items, vases with flowers of the season and a few ornamental elements were placed there. It is also in the tokonoma that 'kagami-mochi'(a pagoda-like pile of rice cakes), 'hina-ningyo' (girl-dolls), 'musha-ningyo' (warrior-dolls), etc. have traditionally been displayed on such annual festive occasions as New Year's Day, Girl's Festival (March 3), Boy's Festival (May 5), etc respectively.

Source text - English White bread linked to heart disease “EATING white bread and sugary breakfast cereals can increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease and even cancer, new Australian research suggests. A world-first study by Sydney scientists has found conclusive evidence that a high GI diet, generally rich in food that is burnt by the body quickly, leads to a higher risk of common lifestyle diseases. The Glycemic Index (GI) is a measure of how different foods affect your blood glucose levels.
Translation - Spanish Factores de riesgo en la enfermedad de las arterias coronarias
Relación entre el consumo de pan blanco y las enfermedades cardiacas. Según una investigación australiana, consumir pan blanco y cereales azucarados en el desayuno puede incrementar el riesgo de contraer diabetes, enfermedades cardiacas, e incluso cáncer. En un primer estudio realizado a nivel mundial, científicos de Sydney han hallado evidencia concluyente de que una dieta con altos índices glicémicos, por lo general aquella rica en alimentos que el cuerpo quema rápidamente, contribuye a aumentar el riesgo de contraer enfermedades comunes que tienen que ver con el estilo de vida. El Índice Glicémico (IG) se utiliza para determinar cómo las diferentes comidas afectan los niveles de glucosa en sangre de un individuo.
