- A strong thesis takes a clear stance, generally in three parts: topic, position, and reasons/significance. - It should be specific and argue just one main idea. The stance needs to be clear and defendable. - Facts and evidence should be used to support the opinion stated in the thesis. It resides between being a mere fact or opinion alone. - Practice refining weak thesis statements into strong ones by making them more specific, relevant, arguable, and confident in the position taken. Seek reasons and evidence to prove the thesis.

RUNNING HEADER: IS FORMULA BAD FOR BABIES?
2
There’s a lot of arguments that circulate on the topic of breastfeeding vs. formula. For
example, the argument of whether if women should breastfeed in public or the argument of
whether the formula is healthy for babies and provides the same nutrients that breast milk does.
Deciding whether to breastfeed, or use formula is a tough decision to make. It is a decision that
new moms must make for their newborn(s) nutrition, the choice of choosing what they believe is
best for their baby (WebMD). Moreover, this paper will explore the question of whether the use
of formula is healthy for babies, while also studying the benefits and nutrition of breastfeeding.
One article that I found when researching whether the formula is healthy for babies was an
article titled “If you’re feeding with formula, here’s what you can do to promote your baby’s
healthy growth.” The article was posted on a website titled “The Conversation” which is an
independent, nonprofit publisher of commentary and analysis that is authorized and edited by
journalists for the public. Their mission, quoted from the site is “to promote truthful information
and strengthen journalism by unlocking the rich diversity of academic research for audiences
across America” (The Conversation, Introduction page). The article argues that no, the use of
formula isn’t bad for babies, however it is essential that parents/moms choose the formula that
will apply all the health and growth benefits that breastmilk would work for their baby without
negatively impacting their health because formula feeding can increase the risk of being
overweight or obese during childhood. The reasoning contains these fundamental premises:
Premise 1: Protein levels. Higher protein content is associated with higher weight

Essay Specifics:
Before you begin writing your essay, it would help if you created an outline to follow. The type of outline you create will depend on whether your readers primarily agree or disagree with you. Below are two examples:
Readers Primarily Agree with You
Strengthen their convictions by organizing your argument around a series of reasons backed by supporting evidence or by refuting opposing arguments point by point.
I. Present the Issue
II. Provide a thesis statement -
a direct statement of your position
III. Present your most plausible reasons and evidence
IV. Concede or refute opposing reasons or objections to your argument
V. Conclude:
Reaffirm your position
Readers Primarily Disagree with You
Begin by emphasizing common ground, and make a concession to show that you have considered the opposing position carefully and with an open mind.
I. Present the Issue:
Reframe the issue in terms of common values
II. Concede:
Acknowledge the wisdom of an aspect of the opposing position
III. Provide a thesis statement
- a direct statement of your position, qualified as necessary
IV. Present your most plausible reasons and evidence
V. Conclude:
Reiterate shared values
Whatever organizational strategy you adopt, do not hesitate to change your outline as necessary while drafting and revising. For instance, you might find it more effective to hold back on presenting your own position until you have discussed unacceptable alternatives. or you might if find a more powerful way to order the reasons for supporting your position.

Argumentative Essay 2
Introduction
The selection of what to give to an infant depends on a number of factors. While doctors
strongly recommend that women should exclusively breastfeed their children until they are six
months old, some women have medical conditions and other reasons that cannot enable them
achieve this obligation. However, the use of formula on babies has been debated and subjected to
strong arguments by advocates and proponents of it. For instance a mother may not be in a
position to produce enough milk that will meet all the needs of the child. In addition, women
who have the HIV virus cannot breastfeed their children directly and this makes them resort to
formula or cow milk. The health experts advise mothers to breastfeed and when they cannot
adequately met the breastfeeding requirements they can use formula.
Presentation of argument
According to a research that compared human milk with infant formula by the national
academy of sciences, the lack of adequate feed for bay presents a distressing situation for
mothers. Babies cry when they are hungry. Use of formula is thus a relief for mothers who
cannot meet the nutritional needs for their babies. Formula is healthier than cow milk and some
formula are iron-fortified which provides baby with extra iron for their growth (Press, 2004).
Many formulas are manufactured to supply baby with almost all the nutrients that mothers milk
supply to them. Using formula is a flexible feeding method that is increased as baby weights
increases. Unlike breast milk whose supply is constant and cannot be increased as baby grows,
formula is given to baby depending on the amount of feed required. Formulas for babies are
available in the market and vary in form and prices. For example, The Ready-to-Use is the most
expensive that does not need any mixing by the caregiver, Concentrated Liquid is less expensive

Dean R Berry Identifying Claims
The document discusses identifying and evaluating claims. It provides examples of claims and explains that a claim is a controversial statement used to support an argument. For a claim to be valid, it must be supported by clear evidence. False claims cannot be backed by scientific research or facts. The document emphasizes that opinions are different from claims and that claims require evidence to be considered credible.
Ch. 7 Making Arguments
The document discusses key concepts in building arguments:
1) Rhetoric is the art of using language effectively and persuasively.
2) The building blocks of an argument are the claim, support, and warrant. The claim answers what is being proved. There are three types of claims - facts, values, and policies. Support provides evidence for the claim. The warrant bridges the support to the claim by explaining the logic or assumption connecting them.
3) A good claim is not obvious, engaging, not overly vague, and logical/debatable. A warrant must be a belief shared by the arguer and audience. The document provides examples of building an argument using a claim, support, and warrant

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Weak thesis strong thesis
- 1. Weak Thesis Strong Thesis Prof. Maury Brown Germanna Community College
- 2. A thesis (aka Claim) is the single summary of your argument • Announces your stance • Announces how you will argue it
- 3. I claim this! I stake this position! Claim OPINION FACT (Argument) (Thesis) A Claim cannot be a fact; it cannot be mere opinion. It resides between the two. It USES the facts to SUPPORT an opinion. A Claim cannot be a question it must state something. It is where the author puts forth his/her argument , boldly, with confidence this is MINE. And then you prove it.
- 4. Magic Thesis Sentence A strong thesis generally has three parts: A. Topic B. Stance C. Reasons/Significance/Solution For example: All pets except those used for breeding (A) should be spayed or neutered by 6 months of age (B) in order to control the pet population (C).
- 5. Toward a more perfect thesis Broad Topic: Sugar consumption. Specific Topic: Reducing sugar consumption in elementary school children. Stance: More attention should be paid to the food and beverage choices available to elementary school children. Fact/Support: Experts estimate that half of elementary school children consume nine times the recommended daily allowance of sugar.
- 6. Put them all together to make a three-part thesis or claim Since half of all American elementary school children consume nine times the recommended daily allowance of sugar, schools should be required to serve or sell only healthy alternatives in their cafeterias or drink machines in order to reduce sugar consumption by students. (e.g. water, unflavored milk, 100% juice options with no added sweeteners)
- 7. Weak Thesis -> Strong Thesis Take a stand! Weak: “There are some negative and positive aspects to the Banana Herb Tea Supplement.” Strong: Banana Herb Tea Supplement promotes rapid weight loss that results in the loss of muscle and lean body mass, posing a potential danger to consumers.
- 8. Weak Thesis Strong Thesis Justify discussion! Weak: “My family is an extended family.” Strong: “While most Americans would view marriage among relatives to be a threat to the nuclear family structure, many Iranian families, like my own, believe that these arranged marriages help reinforce kinship ties in an extended family.”
- 9. Weak Thesis Strong Thesis Expresses only one main idea! Weak: Companies need to exploit the marketing potential of the Internet, and Web pages can provide both advertising and customer support. Strong: The Internet is filled with tremendous marketing potential which companies should exploit through Web pages that offer both advertising and customer support.
- 10. Weak Thesis Strong Thesis Is specific! Weak: World hunger has many causes and effects. Strong: Hunger persists in Glandelinia because jobs are scare and farming in the infertile soil is rarely profitable.
- 11. You can switch the order of the three parts: All pets except those used for breeding (A) should be spayed or neutered by 6 months of age (B) in order to control the pet population (C). OR To control the pet population (C), all pets except those used for breeding (A) should be spayed or neutered by 6 months of age(B). OR Spaying or neutering(B) of all pets 6 months of age or younger that are not used for breeding (A) should be mandatory(B) in order to control the pet population (C).
- 12. Practice! Move from topic to question to thesis statement. Improve the thesis by making more specific, relevant, arguable, and strong. Seek reasons for your opinions. Seek evidence to support your reasons and prove your thesis.
