Nutrition assingment

Healthcare professionals would be thrilled if individuals made decisions about what to eat based on a solid knowledge of what constitutes a “healthy diet.” Unfortunately, that is not typically the case. Many people do not know what constitutes a healthy diet. There are also those who do know but make less healthy choices for several reasons.

The food choices that people make are influenced by a variety of factors. Factor-categories include, but are not limited to, environmental cues, socioeconomic realities, cultural/religious beliefs, and the availability of foods in the community.

In a 3-page paper, written in APA format using proper spelling/grammar, address the following:

  1. Explain what nutrition is and why it is important.
  2. Describe the characteristics of a healthy diet and provide supporting examples.
  3. Identify at least two (2) factors (other than culture) that can impact a person’s food choices and provide a specific example for each.
  4. Research a culture (e.g., ethnic, religious, dietary) where specific food restrictions are dictated and address the following:
    1. Describe the restrictions.
    2. Explain how the restrictions could make it difficult for an individual to achieve a healthy diet.
    3. What dietary alternatives could be incorporated to overcome the dietary restrictions?
  5. Cite at least 3 credible references and present the resources in APA format on the References page.

What is the phenomenon of concern in this theory?

What are the assumptions underpinning this theory?

REQ:

Health and Safty Family Night Final Project

Health and Safty Family Night Final Project

THERE ARE TWO PARTS FOR THIS FINAL PROJECT

TURNITIN REPORT FOR BOTH MUST BE AT OR BELOW 30%

Your director reminds you that your Lead Teacher had volunteered to run the Health and Safety Community Night in two weeks and now that responsibility has fallen on you! She has a nutritionist scheduled to come in and address your chosen age group. The nutritionist has a presentation prepared and she is willing to answer questions after the presentation.

You will need to create two different fun activities that can be used that evening to teach the community how to enforce health, nutrition or safety measures at home. This community night will also serve as professional development for the staff. Your director has asked for everything to be submitted in the next week so she can help you plan and gather materials. She has also told you that you will have access to as many teachers as you need (for extra support), but you will need to conduct an additional training to brief them on the night. This will be a fabulous opportunity for you to continue to impress her!
