...requirements. Begin by performing an Internet search for "high protein diets." Review several websites and choose the one that interests you most; be sure your selection adequately outlines the high protein diet plan. Critique the high protein diet you’ve researched (be sure to include the link in which you analyzed). The critique should include the following: • A summary of the diet. • Identify the most important facts about the diet. • State your opinion about the diet. • Support your opinion with relevant facts or research. Next, analyze your own protein intake. You should collect, organize, and report data related to your own protein requirements. For your analysis, you should: • Use your own weight (or a fictitious weight if you are uncomfortable using your own), and figure your own protein needs based on your weight in kilograms, the RDA for protein at 0.8 grams/kg body weight. • Collect your data. • Record your results. After reviewing the high protein diet and analyzing your own protein requirements, write a two-page report comparing your protein requirements to that of the high protein diet. Provide a list of foods that the plan recommends the person eat and compare that to your own diet findings. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of the high protein diet from a nutritional standpoint and provide a rationale why someone may choose to be, or should not be, on a high protein diet.

...day. Throughout the Diet Analysis Project, I was able to look into my diet and examine what I was eating, what types of nutrients I was getting and how much . I did an eating log for three days, one weekend and two weekdays to really look into my diet and see if I was eating healthy or filling my body with unwanted bad foods. I then compared my recommended levels of nutrients for my DRI and the actual amounts I was receiving throughout the day. I needed to see if the nutrients I was getting would allow for my full DRI values but not overdue my nutrient levels. I found some very interesting numbers that pertained to my diet that were good and then some that were pretty bad. Some nutrients that are close to deficiency include: carbohydrates, vitamin A, Vitamine C, and saturated fat. These outlines of foods that I have recorded, is pretty close to my daily routine, and therefore are pretty accurate. In my diet I was under average in vegetables and fruits mainly and way over average in grains, protein, and empty calories. For instance an empty calorie would include added sugars and fats mainly. When we break down my diet we see a couple things, I am low in my colaric intake by about 300 kcal, and in protein I overshoot by about 60g. In a lot of places in my diet I very sufficient in foods: fat, cholesterol, omega 3, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, B12, folate, iron, zinc, and sodium. Some of that is a goo sign while others are a red flag. When looking at my diet I would say I have...

...QCF Level 3: BTEC Nationals Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose This unit aims to give learners an understanding of current thinking on nutritional health particularly relating to users of health and social care services. Learners will then be able to apply this understanding and make recommendations to improve the nutritional health of an individual. Unit introduction This unit builds on learner understanding of the principles introduced in Unit 5: Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care. Improvements in the diet of individuals are increasingly being recognised as a significant factor in maintaining, or effecting improvements, in overall health. It is therefore important that people working in the health and social care sectors, or those who are responsible for the wellbeing of others, have a good understanding of nutrition and diet. This unit gives learners an understanding of nutrition from a science-based perspective and of the role that food plays in social contexts. The unit may also provide useful underpinning knowledge for the study of food hygiene and practical culinary skills. Learners will explore concepts of nutrition using the language of nutritional science. Different aspects of nutritional health will be defined and routine ways of measuring this explored. Other aspects of nutritional data will involve describing the general principles on which nutritional requirements are determined in...

...Physical Exercise Training Program Outline Team HPE 170 May 4, 2013 Larry Horton Physical Exercise Training Program Outline Type of physical exercise training program Jamila wants to lose twenty pounds over the next twelve weeks or three months. In order for Jamila to meet this goal she must burn approximately 6,000 calories a week. Jamila will need to work out twice a day to achieve this goal. In the morning, Jamila will start with an active stretch before she starts her cycling class. She will burn approximately 150-180 calories from actively stretching (Rifkin, 2011). Then she will take a cycling class for 30 min. She will burn approximately 400 calories from this class. In the evening her workout routine will consist of various workout routines. Before Jamila starts her workout routine in the evening she will need to stretch. Jamila will get the ultimate stretch by participating in 30 minutes of hot yoga. She will burn approximately 350-400 calories from hot yoga (Gronot, 2011). Then Jamila will run on the treadmill for approximately 60 minutes. If she runs at approximately 9 mph she will burn approximately 1,020 calories (Weeks, 2011). Once she has completed her running she will stretch out her running muscles to ensure she does not get sore. During her stretching routine she will burn approximately 150-180 calories (Rifkin, 2011). She will do these workouts everyday M-F. On Saturday she will incorporate weight training instead of cycling in the morning...

...that science has discovered and accomplished. The scientific method represents a meticulous and useful tool for asking questions and seeking answers. Although it is the responsibility of the researchers to adhere to the scientific method, it is also possible to evaluate scientific findings and trace how the scientific method is used in experiments. The scientific method follows an outline of asking six questions, testing those questions, and then drawing conclusions from the tests that are conducted. The research begins with a question, which is the basis of the scientific method. From there, research is conducted to determine what testing has already been done in regards to the selected question. This helps scientists avoid repeating testing unnecessarily and can help the scientist draw conclusions; accept or reject the hypothesis or even modify the hypothesis is necessary. The next step is conducting the experiment, to confirm or disprove the hypothesis. Once the experiment is concluded, the scientist begins reviewing the data analysis of what transpired during the experiment. Once the analysis is reviewed, the scientist will state a conclusion based on the review of data and will determine if the hypothesis was correct. In this paper, the scientific method will be traced in an experiment involving mice and coffee, where the researchers were interested in the effect coffee consumption had upon mice that were genetically engineered to become diabetic. The purpose of the experiment...

...Version 1.0 General Certificate of Education June 2011 Sociology 1191 SCLY2 Education with Research Methods; Health with Research Methods Unit 2 Mark Scheme Mark schemes are prepared by the Principal Examiner and considered, together with the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation meeting attended by all examiners and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation meeting ensures that the mark scheme covers the candidates’ responses to questions and that every examiner understands and applies it in the same correct way. As preparation for the standardisation meeting each examiner analyses a number of candidates’ scripts: alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed at the meeting and legislated for. If, after this meeting, examiners encounter unusual answers which have not been discussed at the meeting they are required to refer these to the Principal Examiner. It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and expanded on the basis of candidates’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination paper. Further copies of this Mark Scheme are available...

...patterns of ill health within the UK. Government statistical departments play a vital role in identifying and monitoring patterns of ill health in the UK, of which include: * The Department of Health * Health and Safety Executive * NHS Information Centre for Health and Social Care Statistics can be collected from records such as birth certificates, the death register and hospital admissions records. Records can be used for further analysis in order to gain more specific information, for example the weight of a new-born baby, or the reason an individual was admitted into hospital. The government has made the use of having these records available a legal requirement so that the statistics may be available when they are required. Statistics can be collected through the use of surveys, i.e. the national census of which is held every 10 years in the UK by the government. The national census survey has been in place since 1801 and takes into account each individual within a household. It is able to provide an outline of the UK which enables us to compare geographical areas. However statistics are not always accurate for what they represent, as there will always be information on illness which may not be reported therefore the statistics can only provide a general idea on what health in England is actually like. Patterns of ill health can also be identified through other means, such as using reports; one such example includes the Black Report which took place back...
