In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Not only is it easier to cut branches with sharp tools, it's also better for the tree. A clean cut heals faster, allowing the plant to devote its energy to bearing fruit and resisting disease and insects. To sharpen your tools, use a carborundum stone or diamond file and always take precautions to prevent injuries. All diseased, damaged, or dead branches should be removed to allow the tree to put its energy toward developing healthy branches and fruit. Cut the branches as close to the base as possible. Bag and dispose of these branches to prevent the disease from spreading. To prevent disease from spreading, you should always clean your tools after cutting diseased branches. Use bleach or 10% methylated spirit water to disinfect the tools, then rinse them thoroughly with tap water and dry them with a clean cloth, taking care not to cut yourself. If you use bleach, be sure to dilute it first. Mix 1 part bleach with 9 parts water before disinfecting your shears. Weak branches will be unable to hold the weight of the fruit, so it's best to remove them before they break. Crossed or tangled branches rub together, removing the bark and exposing the wood to diseases and pests. To avoid these issues, make sure to remove them at the base of the branch. Long branches and those that stick out above the canopy can be trimmed. So can those that skim, or almost skim, the ground, as these branches are most susceptible to fungus and disease. Aim to lift the "skirt," or bottom of the tree, 3.3 feet (1.0m) from the ground. Make the cuts 14 inch (0.64cm) above the bud for best results. The goal is to create an attractive, balanced tree. While long or unruly branches can be trimmed from the canopy, you should avoid lacing a citrus tree. Lacing means opening up the canopy to allow sunlight to reach the interior of the tree. Some fruit trees, like plum and peach trees, benefit from lacing, but lime trees do not. Let the canopy grow naturally to prevent the tree from getting sunburned.
Summary: Sharpen your shears or loppers before pruning the tree. Remove dead, damaged, and diseased branches at their base. Disinfect your shears or loppers after removing diseased branches. Thin out areas with weak, crossed, or tangled branches. Trim branches that go beyond the desired size and shape of the tree. Avoid opening up the tree's canopy.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you're cooking your own meals, you're doing a lot of this already. Still, you can create even more nutritious and wholesome meals by avoiding ingredients that have lots of additives or have been overly processed. For example: If you're baking, stick to whole wheat flour instead of bleached or refined flour. When cooking with canned fruits, vegetables, or broths, look for options that don't have added sugar or salt. Consider making your own sauces, dressings, and condiments, since pre-made ones are often loaded with preservatives, refined sugars, and salt.
Summary: Avoid processed ingredients to minimize empty calories.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The grooves on towels can pull apart the strands on your hair, creating frizz. This makes static more likely. Instead of using a towel to dry your hair, have an old t-shirt in your bathroom. Use that to pat your hair dry after a shower. Shampooing your hair too frequently dries it out. This can lead to an increased risk for static. Cut back on how often you shampoo your hair. Try applying shampoo every other day or every three days instead of every day. If you want your hair to still feel smooth even without shampoo, add a small amount of conditioner instead of shampoo. An iconic hairdryer can be purchased at most drug stores for about $20. They work differently from regular hairdryers and can neutralize static. If you dry your hair frequently, an iconic hairdryer may be worth the investment. Brushing your hair can create friction. This encourages static. Instead of using a brush on your hair, use a comb. Opt for a wide-toothed comb. The wider the bristles, the less static you'll generate. If you strongly prefer using a brush, try one with boar bristles. These fibers tend to be less harsh on hair.
Summary:
Dry your hair with a t-shirt instead of a towel. Do not shampoo your hair every day. Switch to an iconic hairdryer. Comb your hair instead of brushing it.
