Answer : Using Opthalmic Sponges.

Explanation : Collecting tears with the trivial methods is often not possible as to avoid the tear reflex is a different problem. Tear collection with glass capillaries are the most widely used method for taking samples and is considered to be the best method for avoiding tear reflex.

To collect tears are from elderly people or small children's who had difficulties with glass capillaries; for them ophthalmic sponges was used.

This kind of opthalmic sponges proved to be well tolerated by the patient, especially in small children's, and also enabled standardization of the tear collection in terms of volume.

I would say that the most efficient method of collecting tears from an elderly woman would be to tell her something very sad that pulled at her heart strings such as say discussing the death of her husband if they had a good relationship and he died a painful death, say, as an example.

Question: is plate-based or a meat-based diet is more nutritious

Answer: But it's also common to choose a plant-based diet because it's considered healthier. And that's for good reason. Research over many years has linked plant-based diets to lower rates of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers (as compared with diets high in meat and other animal products

Is a meat based diet better than a plant-based diet? Answer: Mounting evidence shows that reducing meat and increasing plant-based protein is a healthier way to go. A diet with any type of meat raises the risk of heart disease and cancer, when compared with a vegetarian diet.”

Plant-based diet: A plant-based diet or a plant-rich diet is a diet consisting mostly or entirely of plant-based foods. Plant-based foods are foods derived from plants with no animal-source foods or artificial ingredients. While a plant-based diet avoids or has limited animal products, it is not necessarily vegan.

Meat based diet:

Meat is a complete, high-quality protein containing all of the essential amino acids your body needs for optimal health.


Meat provides more protein per serving (25 grams per 3 ounces) than dairy (8 grams per cup), eggs (6 grams each), legumes (12 grams per ¾ cup), vegetables or nuts (2 to 5 grams per serving).
