The first thing is the food pyramid which goes over the food chain. This would be the foods are bodies need on a daily basis to function on normal routines.

...“How to Give Your Body the Nutrition it needs” Process Essay Tiffany Vogt Rasmussen College Author Note This paper is being submitted on November 9th, 2014 for Professor Branch’s G124/ENC101 Section 16 English Composition course. By fulfilling the nutritional requirements your body needs, it can increase your daily energy levels and overall well-being. Maintaining a well-balanced diet is much more critical for your health than many may think, what you eat now could potentially affect your health later down the road. “The benefits of good nutrition can be found in physical and mental health because a healthy diet provides energy, promotes good sleep, and gives the body what it needs to stay healthy.” (Medical Online, 2013). There are a few key elements that are needed in order to specifically know the nutrients needed for your own body. Daily nutritional values can vary upon every person due to many different factors such as; body weight, height, daily activity level, or chronic illnesses. A person who runs 3 miles a day and is diabetic will have a much different nutritional needs than a person who is overweight and does perform much physical activity. It is important to keep factors such as these in mind when reviewing your nutritional needs. Due to so many different factors playing roles in specifying a person’s nutritional needs, there are free websites that are capable of helping with the process. One of the sites I’ve found very helpful is one that has been created...

...May 22, 2013 Personal Health Essay Life is a very meaningful thing. Some people are aware of the health issues that can occur later in life and others do not have a clue. There is also an “it will not happen to me attitude.” Some of these issues can be made less serious or even prevented, by making changes in our lives right now. Looking at my family history and thinking about the future, I need to live in the moment, because I will never know when it will be my last. I come from a family that fried everything and used grease for flavor. My mom was never taught about healthy eating and she cooked just like her mother did. My grandmother came from the depression era that didn’t waste anything and had a way to make a meal out of whatever was available. Many of our favorite foods were developed during this time and we’ve been eating that way ever since. I was never encouraged to eat vegetables, in fact the only vegetables I really remember having are potatoes and corn, because those were the only ones the kids would eat. I have two sisters and all three of us were finicky eaters. Because we would only eat certain foods, my mom would cook those items just so we would eat. She never made it the “healthy version” way, because she didn’t know to do that. When I was growing up, there was the food pyramid, but not all the talk about changing recipes to a healthier version or cutting out fat. We ate what we liked and could afford, so most of it was processed and unhealthy...

...Chapter 1: Student Characteristics Understand Characteristics of Students with Disabilities Some students with disabilities pass through typical developmental milestones and express skills within an average range for their age group. Others show delayed growth at certain developmental milestones, and many students with disabilities experience challenges as they navigate through the school curriculum. It is critical that special education teachers know how to differentiate between typical individual differences among children without disabilities and differences that may indicate a disability that requires interventions and/or specialized designed instruction. In addition, special education teachers need to know the most common types of disabilities that students may experience and how those disabilities affect their ability to learn and their behavior in the classroom. Competency 1 thus focuses on the characteristics of typical and atypical human growth and development and the characteristics of students with various disabilities that special education teachers are likely to encounter. The test includes a wide range of multiple-choice questions that address Competency 1. * Questions on typical and atypical behaviors and abilities for children and adolescents at particular ages. * Questions on the types and characteristics of various disabilities. * Questions on the similarities and differences among students with and without disabilities.
